in Motivation and Support
Hey everyone! :3

I've been sluggish with keeping up with my food diary, and I've just started regularly exercising again, (save for the past two weeks, unfortunately -- I have the flu!) Anywho, I've lost nearly fifty pounds so far in my weight loss stretch, and I've managed to maintain my current weight for a year without much trouble, but I'd like to lose twenty more pounds.

So, I'm looking for some friends who are active on MFP and offer encouragement and support. Of course, I want to be encouraging and supportive of you too, and I figure it's much easier if we do it together. ^ o ^

To share a little bit on me, I'm turning twenty-three this week, I've recently graduated from university with a bachelor's in English and I love writing poetry. I worked as an actor in a haunted attraction this past month, I have an intense interest in makeup artistry and am considering entering a program for it, and in my free time, I like playing video games and drawing & painting.

    Cool! I am also 22, almost 23 and a recent university grad. Also looking to lose 15-20.
    Would love some more encouragement / friends who are looking for the same.

    Send me an add! I would love to develop a broader community!

    You and anyone else are more than welcomed to send me an add request. Hopefully, we can motivate each other.

    I try to log in my food diary at least during the weekdays but my log is open to the public

    I am also looking for some motivators/buddies! I have been going up and down back and forth the past few years and am finally ready to say enough. I am 24 and looking to lose about 15-20 lbs. I am on a 9-day healthy streak so far (netting 1200 - 1400 kcal per day and burning off about 350-400 kcals in exercise 5 days a week)

    I work at a desk job so it hasn't been easy but I am feeling more motivated then ever, just needing someone who is the same boat so that we can keep each other on track! :)

    Hello. I'm also 23. I'm starting up again after gaining back all my weight. This time I plan to keep it off, though. Feel free to add me, or anyone else, for encouragement or support! I'm active.
