in Introduce Yourself
I've noticed a lot of people on here like to nit pick and get onto each other about different things. While constructive criticism and observation can be helpful I've noticed that the people who seem to succeed the most are those who have the people in their corner and by their sides cheering them on to weight loss victory and a better you. So take this challenge and compliment someone today, feel free to send a random stranger a compliment or we could even compliment the person above us on this thread.. just a thought. Have a great night everyone! Ya'll rock!

    Your sentences were much too long and were missing punctuation.

    This... is a bloody beautiful challenge OP. I'll have a go at complimenting because, although we all have different goals and lifestyles, we are all on MFP for the mutual support. I would be absolutely USELESS without the people I've got as friends here on MFP. This website has been great for encouragement - let's not get so wrapped up in our own obsessions and worries and start looking at everyone's positives!

    O.P: I've known you on here for a while now and I absolutely LOVE your commitment to this. Your attitude will get you far and in a few months you're going to think "f**k yeah, I feel AWESOME!"

    Sandy: awesome stuff for wanting to change your LIFESTYLE, not just looking to lose weight using drastic measures. Good on you, love your body and your body will love you back :heart:

    Grammar dude... you know your grammar well. Sadly, I don't. I use commas, exclamation marks and ellipses far too much - hey, that's how I talk! :smile:

    cookmtn: Congrats on your weight loss. I love what you wrote in your introduction. Great job taking those first steps to lose weight and staying consistent.

    leonxc: Nice job trying to work humor into this post. While it might not be everyone's cup of tea I never have a problem with dry humor. It keeps us sane during those dark times. :)

    Quzly, I love your muscle definition and your (obvious) hard work to get there! You look great!

    LeonXC: Having a sense of humour is definitely an asset to weight loss, because retaining a sense of humour helps you lighten up! :smile: Thanks!

    I got it Leon, and we all need a sense of humor. In the spirit of the OP, your joke was funny and brightened my day.
