    My name is Darleen. I live in Jacksonville, Florida. I am in my early 40's and have a lot to lose and have been on and off the MFP bandwagon for a while now. Would love positive encouraging "Pals" to help keep me motivated while I motivate them as well. Feel free to add me as a friend!

    Hi!. I'm Natalie. I'm no stranger to MFP... Its worked for me in the past but I've fallen off the wagon a few times. I'm trying something different this time and hoping that by adding some friends, I'll get the extra motivation I need.

    Hi everyone, I'm Noel. I live in central North Carolina. After many years of being overweight and out of shape, I started cycling 4 years ago and trying to get and live healthier. 5'9", I dropped from 235 to about 205 just from riding my bikes as much as I do. This year I hired a cycling coach and decided that if I was going to take it that seriously I need to get serious about my diet as well and get myself down to where I should be, weight-wise. I'm down to the mid 190s right now with a goal of getting to about 170 and reassessing.

    I'm on here every day logging food and generally having a look around. Feel free to add me!

    Hi Dear!

    My name is Kanika, and I am from India.

    I am 27 years old, I am also trying to lose some weight nearly about 70 pounds (30-31 kgs), my height is 5'6", and I am married for two years. I have been an over weight child always, and now all I want to do is lose some weight, so that we can start our family :)

    One thing that I have started doing is drinking at least 3 lts of water per day, and having an early dinner. I also try to exercise for about 25-40 mins a day, for a minimum of 4 days.

    Hope this information helps you in some way.

    Cheers!

    Kanika

    P.S. I am new to fitnesspal :) hope to have a good time here!

    My starting weight was 195lbs and I am now down to 188lbs in 13 days!!!

    I am trying to do this the right way. Smaller portions, more fruits and veggies, more lean proteins. Avoiding processed flour and sugar (basically any white food). I am visiting the gym 3-4 times a week. I drink a ton of water. So much so that I visit the bathroom almost every hour. Thank goodness it's right down the hall from my office!

    I want to lost 30 pounds, but my first goal is to get down 15 pounds. I am trying to break up my weight loss into smaller chunks, so it won't seem so impossible and overwhelming.

    I feel fantastic! Plus, it helps that I am in a psuedo competition with my boyfriend. He is convinced that the Atkins diet is the way to go. I think he's full of crap. I am determined to prove him wrong. I want long term weight loss, not a quick fix.

    Feel free to add me! I update my diary daily :)

    Hi All! I'm back and committed in NYC. This journey isn't a 5k but a marathon and that has finally permeated through my thick skull. Have 40lb to lose overall and am looking for some support for the ride! Feel free to add!

    Hi everyone! East coast Canada here! Looking to get motivated and to give motivation in return. I truly believe hearing others stories and finding people who can relate is a huge part of anyone's journey, new friends always welcome.

    Hi everyone. My old account was deleted by someone else so I had to restart with new name and no pic of me. Anywho, I'm a nerd (Trekkie and starting Doctor Who to name some specifics) and I love yoga and tea. Looking for some friends to support and motivate each other. I am a 27 year old female. I've already lost 13 pounds, looking to lose 37 more or thereabouts.

    I am 65, happily married to one, mother of 5, grandmother to 13 and friend to many. I have type 2 diabetes. I lost 50 pounds last year but have managed to gain back half of it. I'm looking for a fitness pal buddy. Someone who is willing to message me at least once a day with encouragement or questions about our success...our families... the weather... or anything.... Just someone to touch bases with and help keep me accountable. I promise to encourage you too. Let me know if you are interested.
