in Motivation and Support
I've been on my weight loss journey for years; typically losing a bit of weight and then losing motivation and gaining it all back. I am a perpetual yo-yo dieter...and I AM TIRED OF IT!! I have been on MFP for the past few years and have managed to keep about 10 lbs of my highest weight off, but I am far from the target and have never really used the community portion of this site.

I need friends to help encourage and motivate, as well as keeping each other on track! I have 70 lbs to lose....whose with me?

    Would love to add you as a friend but my phone doesnt want to pull up the link when I click your name. My email is blue_bacteria@yahoo.com :) I have 60+ to lose as well. A long road ahead :) but it will be worth it in the end!

    Add me, I am queen of the yo-yo diet. I'm usually good for about a month before I fall off the wagon and gain everything back! I could use some encouragement and motivation as well :)

    Feel free to add me! I started out with over 82 pounds to lose last May and only have 36 to go.

    I have been able to remain pretty consistent in my efforts and enjoy providing motivation to others!

    Please add me. Your post is what I'm going through as well. I am so down on myself right now. I can't seem to stick with it! I really need support too.
