Hey y'all!
I am 34 in Colorado where everyone is thin and fit and makes it hard to look in the mirror! LOL I hope it means it will rub off on me too! I quit my job to stay home with the kids and I quit smoking, so I had been steadily gaining weight. But I am ready to be focused on becoming more active and getting into the best shape I can!
I would like to have some friends to help keep me on track and that I can do the same for. I am not a Debby downer so please don't you be one either!
Thanks!

Hey! I am newish too! I am 27 years old, and I live in South Florida. Yeah, I totally know what it is like to see so many fit and thin people around. I'm definitely an optimist, and hard worker. I look at it as a journey with some friends along the way! :laugh:0

Hello! I'm 30, the mommy of a 5 year old boy, and I live in North Florida (just moved back to florida after living in denver, co for 10 years) and i'm looking for new friends. i just joined this site, my weight has gone so far up and down so many times it's ridiculous. on a graph it would be hideous to look at. the fact that i've lost a substantial amount of weight so many times makes me realize that i can do this, but this time my goal is that i HAVE to keep it off. there's no worse feeling than going through all the trouble & effort of losing weight, only to gain it all back. please add me if you want!0

:happy: I'm a "re-new" I tried MFP before but i quit. This is the moment and I'm doing the best I can do by my self. Every body here is to busy to support and I need it, every body need some support. You and who is in this journey can add me, I'll be happy to help and have some support too.0

IM 36 I work full time and have a 16 month old. I could always use supportive friends. I believe in lifting my friends up not tearing them down. Feel free to add me. I could use all the support I can get. This is my second round. Two years ago I lost 83 lbs and gained it all back. This time its for good.0

Feel free to add me--I'm looking for some friends as well. I'm starting my journey once again. I was in a good place about a year ago, but long story short my anxiety condition came back and I fell off the fitness wagon. I feel like I'm in a good place again and am ready to change my body for the better.0

Hey-- I am also new and looking for encouragement and friends! I am 53 and live in TN. My husband is retired military, so we have been stationed all over the US! We moved to TN so that my husband could teach high school in retirement. The past two years have been really stressful for me, so I have gained a lot of weight. Would love to make some friends to help me along my journey!0

Similar thing here, I'm 22 and trying to get a healthier lifestyle while still at uni - it is not easy.
Especially since I was never really thin or fit to begin with. Have almost 23 years of unhealthy life style routine, and it is time to change that. I've been on a bunch of quick-fix diets before, but never with a mindset I'm in it for a long run , so hopefully this time it *slowly* works.
Good luck everyone, I know I'll need it0 -
Feel free to add me all :-)0

I am newish (heavy on the ish; back for the third time) and am determined to keep it going. I moved across country in March and settled in in June, so that has been the start of my last time being big. Always on the look out for positive people to see when I cruise me feed, as I do the same. Anyone feel free to add me. Happy Friday, y'all!!!!!!!0

I would love to connect with some new friends too! I have had my FP account for a while, but have not been consistent with it. I am ready to commit now, and it would be great to have some support and to offer support to others too! My first goal is to lose 25lbs. I have not been able to lose weight in the last 10 years, since I had my children. I have just slowly but surely gained about 40 lbs. I turned 42 yesterday and saw a rather unflattering picture of myself and realized the time is now to reclaim my body and my self esteem. I'm not sure how "adding" works, but please "add" me if you want...I'll try to "add" you now and see what happens :flowerforyou:0
