Hey all!!

I am new to fitness pal and I am looking for some fitness pal friends. Definitely like supporting and being supported in our journeys. I am 28 and looking to lose the last 35 lbs to reach my goal weight. I started this whole journey a few years ago at my heaviest weight of 246 lbs. Currently, I am at 186 lbs. I know I am slow and getting there but I WILL MAKE IT. I've made changes to my lifestyle to keep the weight off forever and being active (which I never was when I started) Looking forward to completing this journey here. :happy:

Not really sure how to find the "friends" tho..so thought I would post on the boards.

Rachel

    Hi Rachel!
    Today is my first day on this site as well, so I'd love to be your friend! I've been struggling with my weight for years and I know that it is much easier with the support of friends. We have similar goals as well. I am 26 years old, 190 pounds, and have a goal weight of 150 pounds. Good luck on your journey to a thinner, healthier you!

    I just started on this website and have 1 friend whose a coworker... I'll add you too! :)

    I need to surround myself with people that have similar goals to mine... I've learned that for me, it's the best way to keep me focused on my goals... which is to lose 25 lbs.

    Welcome to MFP!
    I've been working hard to lose my baby weight from 6 years ago. I did really well here, then stopped. I gained over 20 lbs back. So I'm back and back on track.
    Feel free to add me if you would like and I wish you luck in reaching your goal.
