    Hey guys. I'm Kat, I'm 26years old from London. I'm looking to lose 20-30lbs right now. This the first time I've used MFP to connect with other people. So hopefully I will meet people who motivate me and keep me on the right track.

    hi :)
    im 20 years old currently 5 ft 1, 190 lbs. looking to lose 70 pounds..
    hardest part I find about losing weight is waiting. i get really frustrated when I feel like I've had a good week but only lost 1-2 pounds..
    just takes time i suppose.. :(

    its my first time using MFP and am looking for friends so we can help support each other.
    Feel free to add me, I accept all adds :)

    good luck everyone with their goals! xo

    Hi!! I'm Mari finally getting the hang of this app and I love it. Trying to lose about 25lbs to get down to 145. Starting to go to the gym 4-5x a week and logging everything I eat. Looking for friends on here to keep each other motivated and accountable. Add me =)

    Hi,
    I am also looking to loose 10 pounds..12 would be perfect. I have never used an app and never counted calories. Other than loosing weight after pregnancies I have been blessed to be thin..until a few yrs ago. I never lost the extra 10, and then had my thyroid removed. I am 40, and now I have figured out I have to work at it! LOL..I have lasted 4 days counting calories...nights are harder..I am hungry now! I walk everyday and am trying to get some swimming in..I have injury issues that makes vigourous exercise impossible. i wish I could just RUN if off! I have a reunion July 26 and 10-12 pounds would make me sooo happy! :) Good luck!
