Hi, I'm Amy, 30 years old, in Illinois. I'm new to MFP and am looking for friends to help keep me accountable! I tend to be athletic (esp endurance) and heavier than I would like. Please feel free to add me!

    Welcome!

    I would also like to have more friends, especially from those that don't have more than 20 or so friends themselves. I am 32 year old (proud) father and husband that is trying to lose about 15 more pounds and to improve my fitness (especially running).

    Hey all! I'm 33. Wanting to lose 30-60 lbs (the number on the scale is less important to me than body fat percentage and my overall health). I check in often, but rarely log my food because I'm trying to learn how to listen better to my body. Feel free to add me.

    Welcome! Feel free to add me. I've lost 38 of 70 pounds and am trying to be as athletic as I was as a kid (not letting the fact that I haven't been on a team in 20 years stop me).

    Hey there! Please feel free to add me, as well. I'm 33 and live in Saint Louis. I'm currently training for a half-marathon in April and am working hard to incorporate weight training into my fitness routine. Looking for friends around my age to keep me accountable.

    Howdy, I just joined the group and I'm looking for people and friends to keep me accountable. I'm 31 and I live in the east valley of the Phoenix area (Gold Canyon) and while I don't expect to find many other people out this way let me know if you are in that area and we can go for a jog.

    Hi, I'm 33 and from Nor Cal, I've been on MFP since this summer but have just started getting my head in the game. I'm looking to lose 50-60 lbs and get fitter & healthier. I have a family history of heart disease & diabetes, and recently my doc told my blood sugars are getting close to pre-diabetic. I've seen what my parents have gone through and don't want to get to that point before I decide to make a change. Feel free to add me.

    Hi all,
    I fear I am nearing the latter part of dirty thirties (just turned 38). I started the gym April 1 after quite a few years hiatus and have been finding my way around. I'm not sure what an accountabuddy can do to help the process but I'm very willing to try. Going on my very first cruise in 11 months and want to look my best. 40ish lbs to lose.
    New Brunswick, Canada

    I did not think that having people who have like minds about working out and eating better would help but it is something about logging on and seeing others still in the race with you does help you. Especially during the unmotivated times.

    Meegun- I'm in a similar situation as you-- this is my 2nd time on mfp, I have more to lose than you, about 100 pounds, and was a gymnast for years in my teens so was always really tiny. I've been on mfp this time for a little over 2 weeks, but I'm also scared I won't stick with it, especially once my weight starts to plateau which I know is normal. I'm down almost 12 pounds so far though (joined the gym 6 weeks ago), but still looking for a few mfp friends to help stay motivated and keep accountable.

    Add me if you want a motivation friend!
