New. Looking for supportive friends

Options
Hi there!

Relatively new to MFP. I love the app and use it daily to log everything I do. I'm looking to add friends for some moral support and motivation. I recently quit smoking (Jan '11) and have gained 50lbs since Xmas :( Working on getting it off by cycling and running. I have just signed up for the Seattle to Portland bike ride (200 miles over 2 days) which is in July to keep me motivated to eat healthy and keep moving!

    I sent u a request also I could always use more friends for support and motivation! I was off to such a strong start earlier this yr and so far all together I've lost 26lbs but I will say my determination isnt as strong as it was and I dont want to fall back into my old habits

    Welcome!!
    For me, the BEST part about MFP is the support and motivation I get here.
    It helps to know that everyone is on the same journey with me.
    I love my MFPeeps and wouldn't trade them for anything!

    You can do it!!
