Supportive Friends Needed!

in Getting Started
So, I'm not new to MFP. I was successful at losing 53lbs under an old username on this site, thought I was done with it, then magically gained 20lbs back. So I've come to realize I need to stick with MFP to remain successful. There's only one problem. I have no more friends on here since I've started fresh again, and I have issues remembering to log in and track my food and exercise. I'm looking for more friends that can help me stay accountable and bug me if I forget to log in. I've got about 15 more pounds to lose and I could use all the help and support I can get!

Thanks!
Kylee

    You can count me in! I have about 35 lbs to lose and am starting over. I am doing my best to log in everyday, but usually put the dinner food in the log the next morning. I am trying to exercise a bit more and watch my portion control. I love this site and it worked for me in the past. My son is getting married summer of 2015 and my first son got married last fall. Looking back over the pics, I don't want to look like that again for the next wedding. It is time to get back in control. We can do this!

    Hi, I am logging in every day! :) I started this last year but after 2 weeks I gave up, now I started again and somehow it looks easier for me although I get stressed when I start adding the calories. I hope this time I will make it. My role model is my husband who in 2 months succeeded to drop 22 lbs. . This happened last year and he is still in very good shape. I need to keep it up for two months because I need to loose around 20 lbs. I am new on this so can you tell me how can I bug you so you will not forget? ;)) Good luck to everybody! :)

    I'm starting over too, mainly for the same reason. I'm currently 142lbs and looking to get to around 9 stone (126lb).

    Kylee,
    You might find it helpful to keep a computer, IPad, or laptop near where you eat, and make it a practice to log in right after, and sometimes BEFORE you eat. If yo log yor food before yo eat, yo know whether it will still fit within the guidelines you set for yourself in terms of calories, and nutrients. I have the hardest time staying below my sodium level goal, and above my protein goal.

    You can add me too! This is my second time on here and I've lost ~ 16 lbs so far. I was not nearly as successful the first time around.

    You can all add me, I've been here for 75 days now and Iog and comment daily. I do prefer people who have a viewable food diary though. I'm 39, vegetarian and on 1200 cals.
