Motivational friends needed....

I'm starting over again (for probably the 3rd time). I need some motivational friends to help keep me going. I have always attempted to do this by myself or with a small handful of people that I already know.. Well that isn't working..

Looking for some friends who have used MFP and made it work. People who started off with a huge goal and achieved it!

Thanks!!!

    I would love to be a motivation for you/to you. The only free time I have is after I lay my babies down for bed at 8:00. We can get together and exercise. I find myself in the same boat as you with my numerous attempts at losing weight, but the only thing that is different this time is that I haven't given up. I fail a lot with the temptations around me, but if I succeed even two days a week I count that as a victory because it is better than failing 7 days (even though 7 is my goal for success). I have a "large" amount of weight to drop. I've already dropped 60 pounds and am looking to drop another 75 to 100.

    Walking is better than nothing. I am facing yet another knee surgery so walking is about my only option right now and that is even difficult from time to time. If you ever need a walking buddy yell at me. I only live about 5 minutes from the school.
