    I'm brand new tonight, and I'm afraid I'll probably be like you eventually! Just popping my head in to see what's up. I could always use some tips from other people! :smile:

    I'm totally up for a friend like this - I absolutely don't have the time to like everything and keep up to date but I do peek and see what other people do all the time.

    I am the same way! I am on here all the time but I don't go through and like and comment on everything. I will look at someone's diary from time to time to see all the different foods or exercises. I do this to get ideas to change things up for myself. My diary is open to give others ideas also.

    Anyone can add me! :flowerforyou:

    Sounds like just the kind of friends I need. I'm happy to cheer your big achievements and more than happy for you to do the same, but I really don't need congratulating on doing some exercise or filling in my diary. I do however like to take some inspiration from friends usually in finding out about new workouts, sometimes in finding new things to eat!

    Anyone who has replied feel free to add me.

    This was refreshing to read! I almost felt bad asking for friends when I know that I don't have the time to dedicate to congratulating and commenting on status updates all of the time. Sending out some requests - feel free to add me as well if you are commenting later in the thread!

    I am the same exact way! The support on here is wonderful but I am not the type of person who "needs" it to keep doing what I need to do nor do I always comment on everything. Feel free to add me...anyone!

    I will be your friend. I'm just getting started with my journey and it will be a long one. You see, I'm 58 and on May 28th I weighed 400#. My scale does not go that high so I haven't been charting except for when I went to the doctor. I have ordered a new scale and then I will be able to see what's happening, and if I'm on the right track.

    I don't need a friend to "Like" everything I do. Just someone to check in on me from time to time, and it need not be often, to see my progress and perhaps make a comment or two.

    As of yet, I don't do much in the way of exercise as I get winded quickly and my bones and joints hurt so much from years of neglect.

    14 years ago I weighed much much less and was active in the gym, 5 days a week, so I know I have it in me.

    Anyone feel free to add me as well :). I just started tracking everything again on MFP and I'm determined to stick with it this time.

    You, I like. I log in most days, and I'll comment if something catches my eye, but I don't have the time or energy to be everyone's cheerleaders. I'm about two months back into Stronglifts at the moment, and I run when I have time. I do tend to label my workouts specifically (Stronglifts workout A, Insanity Core Cardio, etc.), so feel free to add me or just poke around (I have an open diary).

    Yes, this is me! I'm on here daily and I'll like a few comments, if it's about calorie burns or that they've logged in for a milestone, but I don't like or comment on everything. I like getting food and exercise ideas as well. Feel free to add me!

    :drinker: Sounds like My Kinda Friend! I may or may not comment, and (sadly!) sometimes I don't even 'Thank You' for your comments on my page. But I am thinking of you, and I Do Appreciate knowing that my Friends are there for me if I have a Question.
