Hello everyone!
Im new here and looking for some friendly support. I will access the iphone app daily and looking forward to not going down this road alone = ) Im in my 20s, no spouse or kids... hell, I dont even have a puppy lol SO, I can use all the motivation I can get. I am hoping to lose around 40 pounds. I would love to connect with anyone heading down the same bumpy path as me!
Thanks! Hope to talk to some of you soon

    Welcome! I think you'll be very happy with MFP... I've tried Sparkpeople, Daily Burn and Weight Watchers online and this site is my fav out of all of those. I'm in a similar boat as you - except I'm in my 30s w/50lbs to lose. Good luck and congrats on taking the first step towards a healthy new you! :-D

    I have a lot of weight to lose and long way to go, so I could really use the support from everyone. So far I have been lucky in finding a lot of very friendly people on this site who are always willing to give you a good job.

    Welcome! I'm working on a lot more weight than you, but we are all in the same boat pretty much! I've only been using the message boards a few days and I've seen a lot of great supportive people!

    Heyyy, I'm pretty new here too. Not quite in my 20's yet...but I will be next month! I definitely have some weight to lose though, and wouldn't mind the support as well. So I'll definitely wish you the best of luck!!
