in Getting Started
I registered on MFP over 2 years ago, and unfortunately did not make much use of it, however I'm back to finally take this head on. I'm not here because I "want" to, but because I NEED to. I find that I can often give the motivation others need but not always give the motivation that I need, I'd love to give anybody motivation but could use some myself!

I'm here to lose weight.
I'm here to get healthy.
I'm here to get happier.

Thank you!

    it would be helpful if you were also here because you want to be. Don't add me. I just want to say that it takes integrating a mind change into your approach. Otherwise you can probably lose weight but you probably won't eep it off. The recidifism rate for weight loss is really high.

    Now that you have put your mind to it, you can achieve it. Good luck.

    I do want to be here, that's why I am here. Though I would rather be here on my own terms and not because I need to be here to achieve something. I need to be here because I have seemingly not done well on my own, and am here hoping that a community of like minded people with the same end goal whether it be small or big, can help me along the way.

    This is why I originally put want in quotes, because I do want to be here, but it's at this time I believe I need to be here rather than want to. I can want something but it doesn't mean I need it, this is why I say I need to be here.
