in Introduce Yourself
Hi guys, my name is Erika and I've started and stopped weight loss programs incessantly. I always think I can do it on my own but this time I'm willing to try a support group. I know we all want the same thing so why not help each other? :)

    Good for you :) Best of luck! I know it can be defeating to start and stop over and over again but then a day comes when you start and you just keep going. I just started last week too so we're all in this together!

    Hi there! I'm a newbie as well, on day 2. I love it so far! I don't feel the pressure like I did when I would diet in the past. THIS is much more of a lifestyle than anything else!

    Feel free to add me so we can support one another in our goals :)

    WELCOME! Im so glad to see that there is another person on this website! I have been here for two months, lost 25 pounds! I feel amazing about my weight loss but even more amazing about the support I have on this website! If it werent for this website and all the amazing people on this website I probably wouldnt have lost anything and I definitely would have given up!

    Wow! That was quick! My brother, gonzj266, and I had downloaded the myfitnesspal app about 3 months ago and we thought we could help each other out. We did really well the first month and then kind of just stopped keeping track. I gained almost 15 lbs in the last 2 months! But I know it was mainly due to an ankle injury I just recently started getting treatment on. I'm on the road to recovery and this extra weight needs to go!

    I'm thinking it could be helpful to get to know a few other people using this site. I feel so encouraged to read your posts and I hope we can help each other stay on track! Thanks guys!

    P.S. Any male weight watchers? Feel free to add my brother: gonzj266. He's had more success dropping a few pounds and I know he could use the encouragement as well.
