Newbie seeking supportive friends :)

Options
Hey all,

I've been on MFP for 10 days now and I'm really excited by all the tools and the great community that seems to be available here. I'm just looking for some supportive people to become my 'friends' to help guide and encourage me. I will definitely do the same for you! Please send me a message or add me to your friends. I'd like to make some new friends who understand all about the journey I am on. Thanks! - Amanda

    Hi Amanda,
    I too think this is a great tool.
    I got the app for my iphone in Dec. I found it hard to remember to go on and track.
    But after Christmas i made a commitment to change three things.. just three and keep my focus.. one of them was to track my food everyday, not necessarily at this time change too much about the way i eat , because I don't do too badly in my food choices. I find it amazing how just tracking keeps you accountable.
    today i looked and my message was Deana has tracked for 27 days in a row. I i thought wow, i have a new habit and it is a good one.
    I wish you strength and commitment, and if you need to chat.. I will look for you...

    Hey there, add me too. I joined about a week ago. I started trying to watch what I eat before that so the 9 lbs is NOT in a week! My weight has been fluctuating by 10-15 lbs for about 10 yrs since I starting taking Prednisone. When I was young, I swear I could eat anything. Maybe that's not the case, young people are more active and definitely don't consome as much. My profile pic is 2 yrs ago out in Napa. That's my goal, to fit back into those jeans well. I have not started exercising because I want to relish in seeing fat lost before I start adding muscle. Waaaaa!!!!
