in Introduce Yourself
I am planning on being here a while seeing as I want to lose about 200lbs. It'd be nice to have friends to motivate me and keep me on track, and of course, I plan to do the same on your journey as well :)

    This will be my first semester in Business but I have changed my degree so many times. I've been in school for 2 years and so far I've went for Graphic Design, Accounting, Child Development, Fine Arts and now Business.

    hi Chrissy :flowerforyou: welcome to MFP!!! I'm Betty and I, too, joined with 200+lbs to lose in mid July. I weighed 369lbs and now weigh 332lbs. Being here has changed my life so much. It forces me to look at myself honestly and I have the support of many many friends who are walking my same path or have been through a weight loss struggle themselves. The folks on here are beyond supportive!!! You will certainly enjoy your time here :heart: I would love to be one of the many new friends you will be making here on MFP :happy: Sending you a friend request now. Let's support and encourage each other as we fight this good fight to health and happiness!! :bigsmile: :flowerforyou:

    Yeah... making decisions is not my strong suit. :P I am not completely sure what I want to do as far as a job after I graduate with a Business degree but I know I want to be in this field :) Are you in school for something else or planning on finding something in your field?

    Hello Chrissy,
    I also joined MFP at over 300 pounds and have lost 44 pounds over the course of 3 months.I feel much stronger and happier since I started exercising and eating healthy meals. I think you'll find amazing support and motivation in this community. Feel free to add me. I leave my food and exercise diary open to friends, I log everyday and would love to help.

    Hey I'm new here too!!! ???? I'm 2 years postpartum and in trying to loose what fat I did gain and tighten up the muscles that were damaged during my c-section. I'm 22 and finally got the heart and motivation to pull myself together. I hope your journey is a happy successful one that is paid for with sweat and hard work (hope that doesn't sound strange it's sounded good in my head lol????) I'm here to support you 100% if you need it!!!
