Need friends (how's that for sounding desperate?)

I've struggled with trying to lose weight the last few years on my own. So I'm looking for friends to help encourage, commiserate, etc.!! Let's do this together!

    I'm very good at commiserating...my "encouraging" could use some work, but it's getting better. Kudos for being here and being ready and willing. :smile: Good luck...to all of us!

    We're all desperate for something. Right now I'd kill for a double whopper but I'm more desperate to get back below 200 and run a half marathon in less than two hours. Add me and we can aid each others desperation.

    Welcome to MFP! Best way to get friends here? Read through blogs and forum posts. Find people that seem to be interested in things you are, same mind set, something in common, something you admire....send them a friend request and a message explaining your interest! Also, below is a link to all the 2015 mentors.

    If you want friends, read the boards and friend like-minded people! Why do you expect others to do all the work for you?

    Gosh I hate newbies sometimes !!!!
  • Hi, I'm in the same boat as you so feel free to add me too :)

    Good luck!

  • I've been using this site again but I tend to joke around a lot too. You're free to add me, but I have a twisted sense of humor >:)

    Hi guys!! I have been using my fitness pal for quite some time off and on. I am determined to keep up with it this time. I run, take kickboxing, take TRX classes and lift weights. I know that will all that I do I am not taking in enough calories. I am a mother and a HIIT fitness instructor. I just wanted to introduce myself and let everyone know I am here for encouragement and want us all to reach our fitness goals!! I have also started a Facebook page called Fitness Maniacs...lmk if you would like to be added!!
  • Awesome app! Lost 12lbd
