Hey yall! I'm 24 and battling this journey! My depression from a rough marriage and now divorce has been a big obstacle. Along with horrible self esteem. I am battling everything at once head on! I would love to meet some new fitness friends and share our struggles and triumphs with each other and give each other the proper support!! Keep your heads up and fitness on!!

    As someone who has lost close to 100 lbs (most was 260), I will say you can do it and this website, if you stick with it, will save your life.

    I'm new I've not got any female support so feel free to add me . My husband met me when I was 8 stone and I'm 12 stone now . Would like to get back to 8 stone that's 56 lbs . I've a long way to go. I feel vile at the moment . Going to give it my best. I'm doing Insanity dvds to exercise at home as I have a little baby to care for and I work from home . I think you look great by the way. I'm sure we can do this. I'm ever so unhappy been the size I am .

    You may add me, but my goal is to lose ten pounds. Then another ten...I give up when I realize how much...so, it is just ten pounds, in two months...That is my goal.

    I have been on here for awhile, gone up and down. It's quite a journey. Just keep at it. I commend you for your positive attitude. I am now needing to lose about 60 pounds myself and I am getting to it. If you'd like to be friends on here just add me. I am trying to make sure I log in daily again and doing the right things. Good luck on your journey!:)

    Welcome to MFP. The support from 'friends' and religiously logging your food and exercise are key to success. Once your logging becomes a habit, it is easy and quick.
    Every morning before email, before Facebook, I log onto MFP. You can do this! :)
