    Hello Yessi2! Sounds like we're in the same boat. I had this app a couple years ago and didn't stick to it. Hopefully with some support I'll do better.

    Hello SexyFromTheStart, we already have that in common. I started this a couple years ago as well and did see good results but since then I stopped logging and gained it all back and some. :( I'm also hoping with the support I'll do better. Can't wait to see everyone's progress over time. If you have not already send a FR an I'll add you :D

    I'm in a similar boat to you ladies as well! I've used MFP in the past as well as Weight Watchers. I'd lost about 10 lbs on WW this winter but gained 5 of it back over the holidays. I decided I'd rather count calories with something with a more broad data base of foods and a smaller price tag. I think accountability will be huge for me so I could use some friends for motivation!

    Hi there. Please feel free to add me. I am 5'3 looking to lose around 30-40 lbs. I was doing really well until the holidays came (gained about 15 lbs back). Now looking to add new friends and finish what I started :)

    Not easy, but I dont want to stop logging, I was on a 60 odd day streak before the Christmas!

    Khol, you don't have to stop logging even on a bad day. It's about being accountable to yourself.

    Hey all, please feel free to add me, it is very hard to get motivated at times, especially when you are trying very hard and not seeing the results you would like, may I add you all?
