Hi, I'm an introvert who badly wants/needs a diet buddy to talk to, brainstorm with and encourage each other for long term weight loss.

    I have a bit more than 100 pounds to lose but I would be happy to have/be a weight loss buddy! I know I need all the support I can get and that I stick with it longer when I am helping someone too.

    Hi Everyone! I also have over 100 pounds to lose and could always use additional support and encouragement. I have been at this for 167 days and have taken off 40 pounds so far. Would love to help others along the way with some new friends. Will add you all. We can do this.
  • I am also needing to lose 100 pounds, well more than 100. Also, looking for pals to add. I had a few Facebook friends who are on here but none of them seem to be active on this site. So, please add me. My initial goal is currently set at 50 pounds to lose but I plan on doing it 50 at a time so I do not get discouraged.

    Short term I'd like to lose 30lbs to get me out of the 200s, and then next goal to get to 140-160. Just depends. I want to do it healthy and lasting. I'm 52. I'll support you!

    I am 53 and also have 100 lb. to lose. You are not alone. Here is my story. ....This is a recent post from Facebook..I have many family supporters and friends there too. But none of them have my problem so I hope the MFP helps me. Anyway, here it is......Going for the gusto here. Whatever that is. For the first time ever, Ron (my husband)and I planned our meals for the next whole month. First of all, I hate asking him to stop on his way home from work to pick up something we need for dinner. Second of all, I am required to do the wellness program at work or pay a higher premium for insurance coverage. I like to be prepared so I have planed 31 healthy meals, low in carbs, high in fiber and protein. The first required wellness class is on the 13th. The class also requires 150 minutes a week of exercise and of course weight loss. It's not like I don't need it, I do. Lucky for me, Ron wants to follow along and lose weight too. This is a year long commitment, so it is not like I can fail. I have to do it. Please help me in this journey. I may even post pictures here and there. Let the countdown begin. I think I can, I think I can, I think I can, I think I can........SOOO I am 2 weeks in and around 10 pounds down. I have found that the calendar with a months worth of menu's is a big help. One stress I don't need:) Also, I purged my whole house of anything with sugar. I consider sugar a poison. Best of all I feel better. Add me as a friend. We need each other... Anyone else who wants to add me for the same reasons, please do!!

    Well, good morning, everyone! Piney, I have to wonder if, when you posted this last night, you thought you'd get such a great response :smiley: I too am somewhat of an introvert, and I also have roughly 100 lbs to get rid of. (I hate to say lose because that makes it sound like I'll look for them later. Trust me, I won't!) I would love, love, love to be part of this group. Count me in! I've never tried to add friends on MFP, but I'm going to try to figure it out. Don't be surprised if you get an invite from me ;)
  • Feel free to add me! I'm looking for MFP friends too :)

    (I've got about 44 pounds to lose but on a short gal like me that's a lot to shed!)

    Happy Sunday!

    I'm also an introvert... And have more than 100lbs to lose. Short term is 30 for now and then I'll keep going from there. I've done this before, I've started over and over again. So I'm going to try and find a group to work with and hope the support helps to keep me going this time. Good luck to everyone! Add me if you need someone to talk to or just someone to help you to keep going. We are all in the same boat and should help each other along!
  • I just had a rude awakening and stepped on the scale!! OMG! I always thought that I needed to lose about 35-40# Rude awakening sister! you need to lose a heck of lot more. I need to lose over 100..... I need buddies and encouragement to get me on my weight loss journey too. I want to join a community of great people with great advice, encouragement and determination to help me and for me to help you lose your weight and make lifestyle changes and long term success weight loss. Who's in with me? Add me as your friend and we'll take it head on!
