in Introduce Yourself
Hello, my name is Lucy and I figured it's time to go ahead and introduce myself. I have been pretty successful at losing weight since January. I've lost 26lbs so far but have 74 more to go. I find myself starting to fall off the bandwagon lately and I really don't want to give up :( but I seem to lack motivation and support. I don't know anyone in real life that's on MFP and would like to have some friends and to start logging in food daily. If you have similar goals or would like a new friend please feel free to add me :)

    Hi, everyone. I'm Bec and have 3 friends who use MFP and only 2 of us are using it, so we aren't supporting each other very much. I would like to join your group if I can.
    I started using MFP in early 2013 and due to health issues never really got going. In Sept 2013, I hit 275 and realized that I hated myself for letting my weight get that out of control. As a very self-reliant and self-confident person I couldn't believe I let it happen. Since then have taken off 28 lbs so far just through the process of changing my eating habits. I fell off the wagon in May and watched my weight slowly increase back to 255. As of 6.4.14 I have really buckled down and dropped 7 lbs and .5" off my bust, waist, and hips.
    My trick was getting an exercise ball and using it during every sitting activity that I do at home. While I watch tv I do sit-ups, push-ups, leg roll-ins and leg lifts during the commercials. I sit on it when I play video games with my friends, while I read, and while I paint, and constantly move around on it.
    I cheer-lead weight loss as much as I can, and if you are feeling down, let me know, I will help cheer you up if I can. :D
    And if I find something is working for me, I will pass it on for you to try.
    Cheers!

    I just joined yesterday, and would love to have some friends to bring this site experience full circle. Feel free to request me if you want someone to encourage and motivate with. After all, 'We're all in this together' right? :)
