Official "Get Friends" Thread

I'm Vicky, UK based belly dancer looking to shed 50+ lbs! I've just joined a gym and started exercising after losing 11lbs through dieting alone.

Looking for friends so we can keep each other motivated!

I have been on MFP logging all meals for 90+ days. Happy it say I'm down 30+ pounds. I can always use a fitness buddy, extra motivation and accountability. I'm in it (again) for the long haul. Not sure how much more I have to loose. Would like to see 135 but will see what my body tells me is right.

Hey everyone!

I've been a member for quite some time, but initially signed up via My Fitness Pal app for Android. I never realized this was a website with so many features until today! So, I logged back in and updated my information. I've struggled with my weight for basically my entire life. There was a period during high school where I was able to keep motivated and actually lost quite a bit of weight and was happy with how things were going. I'm not entirely sure what changed and why I gained all of my weight back and then some.

I'm from Michigan in the United States but have been living in Sweden for almost two years now, so you'll probably notice that sometimes I'll use the metric system and sometimes I'll use the imperial system. I have no method! Haha I'm 21 years old, stand tall at 155cm (5'1") and currently weigh about 100 kg (about 221 lbs). I want to get somewhere between 50 kg (on the low side) and 70 kg (on the high side). However, I just want to start this change and do my best to take it one day at a time so as to not get discouraged when I don't see the results fast enough.

I wanted to introduce myself and immerse myself in this community in hopes of it helping me stay focused. I would really appreciate making friends with similar goals so that I have someone, or multiple someones, to hold me accountable. Maybe I'll stay motivated longer if I feel like there is someone else out there that I'll disappoint, other than myself, if I give up.

So, let's be friends and share our stories and move forward in our journey's together!

I'n new to the site, joined Friday. I've already met some great people so far.

My overall goal is to lose around 45 pounds. I exercise on a regular basis. The only thing keeping me from reaching my goal is my love for junk food....working on forming healthy eating habits right now.

Anyone who wants to add me and/or message me, feel free. Always looking to make friends and give/receive advice.
