Hi everyone,
My name is Meg, I am 24 years old and I'm addicted to eating. I am looking to change that. I want to get healthy and drop all this extra weight. I would like to become active again. :-) A member of my family is very sick and it is time for me to stop loafing around and live my life. I have a wonderful boyfriend and I am looking for more friends to help me get to my goal and who I can help as well.

Let me know if that is you. :D

M~

    Hi hunni.
    If your picture was not up I would of thought I wrote this myself.
    Even as I write this I have just finished eating chocolate. It's not even 4pm and I feel sick because of the amount of crap I have eaten.
    I would love and value someone to team up with to reach my goal.
    I am going to start a fresh tomorrow.
    Have you started today?

    I would to be support buddies! The eating part is always a challenge for me, especially as the day goes on. I can do great in the morning and have a well-balance breakfast, and then lunch is somewhat decent too but then after dinner is when I just like want to binge. Even today, I had way to many honey mustard pretzels, ughhhhh. I want to learn self control and maybe we can help eachother out with the whole eating right bit : )

    Hey! I'm Shahzal and I would love someone to team up with to reach all of our goals, I literally joined this site 2 minutes ago, hoping for some support. Because as much as I tell myself to watch what I am eating, I cant find a good enough reason. So maybe knowing that all of you are going through the same thing, will help keep me motivated!

    Hi! I definitely understand what you mean by being addicted to food...I have struggled with binge eating almost my entire life. This past weekend I decided ENOUGH WAS ENOUGH and I need to change my eating habits. If you'd like, feel free to add me and we can motivate each other!

    I seriously just posted looking for friends to help me stay motivated. I really badly need to lose 30 pounds in the next 90 days for a family trip. I want to show up and surprise everyone looking thin (ner than now). I've done it before so I know its possible, I just need some pals to do this along with.

    Hey! I helped my sister lose 30 pounds as we both battled through INSANITY. I will be forming a INSANITY Challenge Group in mid-May if anyone is interested!

    Support is crucial!

    Add me or message me guys! I love to help and make new friends!

    Hi Meg,
    I'm in a similar place. This site seems pretty easy. I started an account today but also added what all I ate yesterday. Hopefully we can encourage each other and find new ideas to help meet our goals.
