Looking for supportive friends who actually give advice and are supportive! It's so hard to find that in my real friends because when you say you want to loose 50lbs they look at you like your crazy.. Don't need that! I need encouragement and support! So I'm calling out for new friends lol so feel free to add me!!

    I don't really need to lose weight, so I get a lot of less than supportive reactions from people when I say I'm trying to eat healthier, work out more, etc. I also would like to lose about 5-10 lbs, which would loosen the waistband on a lot of my work pants to a more comfortable and flattering fit. I also felt more energetic at that weight. So, while I am probably not considered unhealthy, I really want to stay on a path of taking care of myself in an effort to avoid the health issues my mother has. But that's hard to say to people without sounding like I am putting down my mom. So yeah, weird looks, "but you don't need to lose weight", etc. are all too common and can start to erode my motivation. I'm happy to be supportive of anyone who is looking to be healthy, whatever that means to them.

    Some people don't like hearing you want to have a better lifestyle, or that you want to be fit and they don't like it because they can't find the motivation to do the same. So we will support eachother!! No matter what your goal is it's still a goal!!
