New FRIENDS!! PLEASE!!

Options
HI!! I am from MICHIGAN.. I have been on here for a year and lost my first 25 lbs but recently fell off the wagon for about a month. I feel that I didn't have as much support as I did in the beginning. I started to eat terribly and give up on workouts. I would like new friends. I never added guys because I felt like they didn't appeal to me online. & It didn't really seem right working out with guys. But I am open for anyone this time around who will be very supportive and motivating in hopes to help me lose the last 15 pounds. After that I will only be toning!! YEAH!! So close to my goals but I need lots of help still. So feel free to post something about yourself and we will go from there!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hello, I am glad you came back to MFP. I started in DEC 2012, but I fell off at the beginning of this year. I totally agree on having a support system and having MFP to help guide you through your journey. Hopefully we can become MFP and encourage each other!!!

    Hi!

    I have a similar problem. I have been ok in my weight loss journey so far (without much support), but I can definitely feel myself lacking motivation as the days go by.

    I also have no friends as I was too embarrassed to add anyone! But now, I am open to any new friends :smile:

    Hey everyone! I'm Victoria and I'm from Long Island (NY). I feel as though I am in the same boat as the rest of you. I don't have a lot of support to loose weight and that becomes a problem. I also recently fell off the wagon for the last few months. I feel ready to get back on the wagon and get this weight loss journey started again!

    Feel free to add me as a friend!

    I was doing great at the beginning and lost 15lbs, then I had family visiting for 2 weeks and went into an almost month long spiral where I gained back 3lbs rather than losing. Trying to get back on track, love having new friends to encourage and be encouraged by.

    I'm the kind of person who's motivation stems from supporting and motivating others, so I absolutely have fallen in love with this site since joining just 10 days ago. I lost 30 lbs prior to joining, and was starting to lose the drive, but having all of the wonderful people on MFP to interact with who can relate is so fantastic! Anyone can feel free to add me!

    I only added girls the whole time I've ever been on MFP. I joined it at first to kind of get away from Facebook and focus on myself, and have support of only girl friends. I am married and wasn't sure how my husband would feel about me having guys on here especially guys who work out. Kind of confusing but now I am open for having all kinds of support and see how that goes. I don't feel its that big of a deal anymore :) It's okay to see how guys might help motivate and support me! And see if I am helpful to them as well. Does that make any sense!?

    I am in WI. Feel free to add me. It's hard to stay motivated every single day. That's what MFP friends are for!!

    Hi, feel free to add me if you want a supportive mpf from the uk. I'm just starting out using the community side of things but it seems to be working already so would love to be friends.

    Hi , I started back in Aug. But felt myself losing interest quick , but I didn't have the support from my family. I now have their support to continue on with my journey but its hard to get motivated again since they are already slim figured. Please help me stay on track and focused.
