    Hey Everyone,
    So about 2 years ago I dropped 15 lbs with the help of MFP and have kept it off without having to count calories (success!). I am at 163 lbs right now and since I have been stable for a few years I would like to make my next goal 145 (almost a 20 lbs drop). I have tried again and again to start but keep falling off the wagon. Last time was so much easier because my calorie goal was higher. As soon as I go over my calorie goal I get depressed and just stop, bad I know. I need some motivated individuals to help keep me focused!
    A little about me: I am 23, work a desk job during the day, am a swim coach at night, live in Wisconsin, need to find time to workout, and I have Celiac Disease (basically means I am gluten free).
    Send me a request! I will try and help you stay motivated as well!
    Thanks!
    Sarah

    I need some friends!

    This is my 2nd time around on MFP. My husband and I did it together the first time and he lost 60 and I lost 30. Life happened and I gained 20 back. I've been trying to lose the same 20 for almost 2 years and I'm tired of it. I am doing it this time come hell or high water!! One thing that helped me before was being involved on the boards and having lots of friends!

    Hi everyone! I've been using MFP off and on for awhile and thanks to a friend I've been inspired to re-start and hopefully stick to it. I'm looking to lose about 40+ lbs and become a healthier person. I'd love to have more friends to keep me motivated through this!

    Hi! I'm 25 and my wedding is in 2 years...I've wanted to get back into shape for a while, but have lacked true motivation and struggle daily with eating choices and having the motivation/confidence to exercise. I joined a gym recently (just opened) and at first it was friendly and welcoming and while that is mostly still true, a lot of the guys from the other gym in our town have also joined and can be a bit intimidating. I was a varsity athlete in college and was very fit and had healthy habits (I also went to the gym, with my team and many of my friends were athletes, so it didn't bother me to see them in there), I think I often feel ashamed knowing my prior level of fitness, as well as what my body used to look like, but I've got to begin to change and I thought this could be a great way to start! Office life has caught up to me and I've got to take back the reigns! I'd love to get in touch with people who log daily and start to build a mutual support network. Thanks!!

    Hello All,

    You might think this odd but I am looking for friends who are male and in the maintain weight stage who can help me with my own maintenance stage. Most of my friends are female and all though they are great I am looking for friends who are around 5'10" and 175lbs. Feel free to send me a friend request.
