    I do happen to know my MFP friends, but I only have a couple of friends at this time. I am hoping to "meet" more people as I get to spend more time on MFP and become friends them as well.
  • I don't know any of mine personally, but they are amazing at keeping me motivated.
  • I only have one friend on here but I am hoping to get more!! Even with just the one friend seeing her bust it out with the exercise and nutrition inspires me to do my best as well!

    So if anyone wants more friends, please add me!

    I only know a couple ---- being to talk to a bunch of different people on here makes it so much more helpful. I've learned a ton from everyone on here
  • I dont know any of my friends ...yet, I would like to get to know them on here - ie about them, to give them support.
    I felt great knowing that I had lost some weight and that my friends on here would notice!

    Don't know any of my friends, but I think it is more about seeing what other people are doing, and knowing that they're going through the same thing. Somebody else may be struggling, and others may be having success, so it helps to "share" that with others.
  • I feel exactly the same way. Being on here without "friends" was getting me no where closer to where I want to be - so I am glad you have reached out and requested my friendship - we can all keep each other motivated and encouraged!

    I know two of my mfp friends, both of whom I've recommended to this site (and one's my husband.)
  • only know a couple of mine. It is all just so encouraging hearing from others and reading everyone else's stories, trials, etc. This has definitely been the best tool for me!

    I'm with you! I don't "know" any of my MFP friends. But I do appreciate their comments, mail, and suggestions :) It's very motivating.

    I feel EXACTLY the same! You are definitely not alone. I do not know any of my MFP friends and it's taking me a bit to warm up to "friending" and commenting but I think I'm loving have this separate world of friends to help me in this one very important part of my life!
  • Hello! I only personally know one of my MFP friends. She's just starting back after having taken a break because of her busy life. I like being able to connect with people who are at the same level as me. We need all the encouragement we can get! :smile: Lisa
