ATTN: A Virtual Walk Coast to Coast Across the USA Mini-Chal

I belong on MFP because I have suffered from every eating disorder on the block. I've managed to stay 'sober' and now I just want to lose the extra weight and be healthy and happy.

I belong on MFP because this is where my best friends, biggest laughs, happy times, supportive conversations, deepest secrets, and long lasting loves are formed and stored.

I belong on MFP because all 87 of my friends personally, and regularly make me feel something I long for and can't find in RL....perfect just the way I am

I belong on MFP because I am a diabetic who really needs to take care of herself and I need the support and friendship I have found on here! My current weight is 152 and my goal is 135!

I feel the same way about point #2!

I am lucky to have supportive friends and colleagues in real life, but I love the accountability on here and the Consistent, Amazing support! I love my MFP friends!

I belong on MFP because all of my real life friends are not supportive in helping me achieve this healthy lifestyle. Everyone here helps keep me in check, and has helped me achieve my goals!

I also belong on MFP to help me "be myself" while I'm at work since for some reason they frown upon crude behavior at my workplace... so I show it all here instead! :devil:

I belong on MFP because I want to lose weight and live a healthier life. The food and exercise journaling helps keep me accountable and on track.

I also love and need the support of my friends. They are always there to give me a push when I need it, to give me encouragement on days when I am feeling discouraged, and they never fail to put a smile on my face every day :bigsmile:

I joined MFP because it was an app. on my Iphone and I thought, well maybe this will make it easier to track my food and something to hold me accountable?!

I stay with MFP because I now know it is very possible to reach my goals after witnessing so many others who have reached thier goals! I now know with a group of supportive people I can do anything I set my mind too! I'm thinking I can use these types of websites for other life goals I might what to reach someday? I never realized the power of people rooting for you and the power of cheering others on! I have some incredible friends who inspire me here! Espeicially the person who started this topic!!

I belong to MFP because i need the focus, and the accountability to make this work.

Health is important !

I am not on here as Roj, seems to think for the girls !!!!

:laugh: yeah right

I belong on MFP because I am totally awesome and MFP needs me to increase the level of awesomeness of the site :laugh:

Really I am here becccause I need the accountablity, support, and motivation that I find everyday when I visit the site. It is easy to fall off the wagon and get down on myself because of the little numbers I produce. However, if I am having a down day I find my strong points in my MFP friends. I also have found that I am a challenge JUNKIE and I use this site to help me get my fix :drinker:

im here bc of the same reason as everybody else! the people are amazing, the site itself is the most helpful tool ive come across yet, and ive learned SOOO much from the forums and the people on what TO do and what NOT to do! oh wait... its time for my lunch diet pill!!!! JK JK! lol.

I belong on MFP because this is where I have met people who have challenged me both with my weight loss efforts and overcoming my negative self image. I can find a calorie and exercise tracker anywhere. I couldn't find the kind of people that pour out their support like they do here even if I paid them to do it!

I belong on MFP because I'm 46 years old and was feeling every year of it in addition to all the extra weight I was carrying. I feel lighter now in my spirit and that's better than losing 55 pounds by far.

Ditto!

I love you guys like family. I can be myself, and I get rooted on when I lose .1 lb or 3.4 lbs in a week!

I started to track what was going in my mouth (yes I said it....lol)
I stayed cos I found an extended family!

I love that all my baby steps have added up to nice results.
This months challenge Already has me feeling Stronger and Better about myself!

.....and That is why I belong here!

I joined MFP because I needed to lose a lot of weight. I've lost a lot of weight but have gained so much more. I never dreamed, when I signed up here that I would meet the most amazing people. The daily interaction and support from my incredible friends inspire me everyday.

Oh, you forgot to mention your stalker who loves you with her ENTIRE

Could NEVER forget about my Favorite.... Will never happen
