    Hello. I would love more friends who are supportive and really working at this! I had to laugh because of the many similarities on here. Here are mine - I'm 5'3", was 201 pounds on 1-1-15, (I'm now @183.5) but still need to lose at least 40. I also have a Fitbit but would love to upgrade to a more advanced model (I have the Zip). I have an eighteen-month-old, I'm a stay-at-home student, and also have a teen and two adult children. I have five dogs, love to run but struggle to get in runs because of my toddler, husband, teen, etc. I am trying to incorporate eating healthier and exercise into our daily habits but it's also a struggle. I would love to encourage anyone who wants to be friends!

    Whew! I'm tired just thinking about all the responsibilities you've got going on! ;)
    Awesome job on the weight loss thus far!
    Is that a mastiff in your photo? I've got a weakness for Bullmastiffs!

    Just started back to MFP and looking for some supportive pals to walk on this journey. Stopped running last September and have put on 40 lbs, that I'm now looking to lose. I started running late in life and fell in love with it. Ran my 1st race at age 40 and it was a half marathon. Nothing like starting big! Lol
    I am going to start with tracking my food and slowly getting back to running.
    I'm currently at 204 and would love to reach my goal weight of 150.
    I am a nurse at a Children's Hospital with 3 children ages 22, 18 and 14. Busy with life and work but need to devote some time to myself.
    Feel free to add me and we can help support each other in this journey.

    I am on daily too. I have been logging for 52 days and have lost a little over 14 lbs so far. My doctor wants me to lose another 15 lbs but I am targeting an extra 40 lbs instead. Have been mainly walking since April but have not seen significant results until I logged and monitored my intake. Would love to help and be helped by others on the same journey.

    This seems like a great bunch of ladies. I've read over some of the other postings and it seems they get off the topic of weight and health. I'm older than most on here, mid 50s, but in good health and needing to lose about 40 lbs.

    I'm trying to get over depression. I used to be very active, always doing something. Now I struggle to get motivation to do anything. Friends on here would be great!

    I'm a SAHM with 3 kids. I try to log everyday and could use buddies, too. I work out at the YMCA at least every other day. I started at 194 and have only lost a few pounds so far but each one counts, right? At 5'2 , 48 years old I plan to get down to 140.

    Hi, I'm a bit on and off logging my stuff on here but I am way competitive and am in dire need of more Fitbit friends to race remotely. In order to keep me motivated.
    I've managed to shed around 6stone in the last 4 yrs but the last couple are hanging on for dear life and a little friendly competition would be welcome

    Mom to two, only 8lb to lose, but concentrating more on toning up, as I have no upper body strength, or decent core! Honestly, you should see me attempting push ups, I look pathetic, but I am persistent and adamant I will succeed!

    I am often pushed for time, so I decided to add jumping rope' into my day.
    I was cooking Sunday roast today, and while I was waiting on that I was jumping rope in the kitchen. Much to the kids and dogs amusement lol I don't care though... I could have just sat in front of the TV waiting for dinner to cook, but decided to be more efficient and multitask with what little spare time I have :)

    Diary is open to friends, add away.
