In need of new faces and friends!

Options
Hi Ladies,

I am not new to MFP but I am new to the Not-that-heayy girls group!
SO many of my previous MFP friends have fallen off the wagon and I'd love some new friends to help spice up my newsfeed and motivation!
I'm 40 yr old, stay at home mom of three kids.
I am 5'8" and weigh 142. My goal weight is about 135 lbs and of course less body fat would be nice too!

Anyone interested in a new fresh face to your friend list?

    Hi there!
    I've been on map for a couple of years but have fallen off the wagon and am trying to get back on :) I am looking for some fresh faces in my news feed too. I do triathlons and run (though recently my motivation has been nearly non-existent, also trying to remedy that). If anybody is looking for friends, add me!

    Hi. I've been using MFP for years, but just got into the community a little while ago. My journey started 13 years ago with 'diet power' and I loved the community spirit and support.

    I'm 43, with 3 kids. Currently 5'7" 148lbs, with a goal weight of 136.

    Been doing 60 min cardio 6x a week for at least 12 years now. Trying to work in more weight training now.

    Definitely feel free to add me.

    Hi, I hav been using MFP on and off for a few years, but would like to have friends to help build a support system. I am 5'7", 143 lbs, would like to lose just a little weight, maybe be around 135 to 137 lbs ideally. I mostly just want to be lean, strong and healthy. The last bit of extra lbs is always the hardest to lose. Feel free to add me, if looking for friends, because I am looking for some too ☺

    Hiya I'm 40 and trying to lose this last 10 lbs. I'm 5'9" currently 160 aiming for 145-150. I'm really working on dialing in my diet, while adding exercise. I play volleyball and also am doing Stronglifts 5x5. My main problem is consistency, and also I am hungry all the dang time. :)

    What are your eating habits? 3 times a day? I eat more frequent smaller meals and the hunger isn't too bad! Every couple hours 100 calories + protein!! Night time is the monkey on my back!! I do a mental trick at night - If I'm thinking of a snack etc - I say ...to myself lol - Go to bed! If I still want it in the morning I'll have it!! ...I have never got up in the morning and wanted it! Whatever "it" was - by morning I honestly don't want it!

    Hey I am definitely available for new friends.
    i am 23 and trying to get off the last several pounds to hit my goal weight.
    I am also trying to create a better balance of life/health/workout and such. I am currently trying to roll back on the insane nonstop working out with no rest days and focus on maintaining a healthy and fit lifestyle that I can sustain for the rest of my life.

    Hey there! I'm also looking for a support group on MFP, especially if your body type and age is similar to mine so we can share tips and tricks! I'm 5'5, 25 years old, and started at 130 but have managed to get to 127 over the past two weeks. My goal is to be all around healthier, MAINTAIN exercise habits, and to drop fat and gain muscle tone. I have a desk job so my activity comes from the gym. I'd love to have MFP friends who want to exchange low calorie recipes and fitness advice based on similar goals. If that's you, please add me :smile:

    Hi I'm 31 years old and fell off the weight loss wagon in November after my hysterectomy. I'm 5'5 and 155lbs. I started at 175. I'd like to be in the 125 - 140 range. My first kick in the butt was my bf telling me to lose weight. Now after seeing two really close friends of mine do figure and bikini contests I actually have a goal instead of thinking about a guy. Any support would be great as well. I love helping people as well and am a great person to talk to and vent to... I know I need help A LOT :)
