Looking for motivational, supportive friends? Me too! :)

My name is Jessica and I'm looking for more friends! I am so grateful for the friends I have found on here in just the short week I've really started to kick it in. Every comment or like keeps me motivated and seeing what you guys eat keeps me inspired! So of course I want more friends! I'm looking for people who like to motivate others and be supportive, as I will be doing the same for you. :)
I definitely want/need friends who fuel their body properly. As long you're not running yourself ragged and eating 600 calories for the day, I'd love to meet new people and make new friends!

I've been on here for more than a week, but it was only about a week ago when I really began faithfully logging my food and trying to exercise. I'm getting married next May, so I'm trying to lose 50 lbs before I go in for a fitting. I haven't even scheduled a fitting yet--I'm too afraid my dress that I ordered 40 some pounds ago won't fit!

Looking forward to making new friends! :happy:

    I am also getting married next May and I am currently stuck it seems. I've lost a total of 60 pounds, 40 using myfitness pal, but lately it seems like its creeping back on and its so hard. May be some friend motivation will help get me unstuck! mbutucel

    I just joined!! I have a goal of 68 pounds to lose. I'm going to have some real challenges so I'd love to have a support group! I'm not really going to get any here at home!

    My boyfriend is growing a garden but then makes the most fattening food on the planet or orders that kind of food!

    My kids won't eat ANYTHING healthy...well, my daughter WILL as long as there are no tomatoes, onions, peppers, etc. the list goes on and on! :smile:

    I plan on starting Monday (need to get paid and go shopping unless this is a starvation plan)!!! :laugh:

    Look forward to hearing from you!

    Feel free to add me as well. I'm not new to MFP, but making a new go of it. I'm trying to lose an additional 65 lbs. I'm a FitBit user who follows IIFYM and I'm not a super clean eater. But this works for me. If you're like me or a complete opposite and just want some added support, I'm your gal.
  • I totally need more friends as well!! You can never have too much support and motivation! :)

    Everybody's body is different and there are so many different paths you can take to get to a healthier you. What works for some people, may not work for others. What's important is that you've found a system that works for you. I'm not a super clean eater myself. In fact, I just made some chocolate covered popcorn balls earlier today! Only 110 calories a piece? YES PLEASE!

    I would also love some more supportive friends, so feel free to add me (anyone).

    I didn't use the social aspect of mfp for the first few months, but I've since realized how motivating it is to be in this struggle with like-minded people :)
