in Introduce Yourself
hello! im looking here to find some encouragement on my weight loss journey! im looking to lose about 20-50 pounds. my highest weight was this summer around 160 and ive been bouncing around the 140s and 150s. i want this year upcoming year to be different!

also, i consider myself a very supportive person and im ready to root you on too!!

now, i know this isnt Christian mingle haha but i am a Christian and Jesus is a VERY important part in this journey which meanssss i will probably be talking about Him alot and itd be great if i had some friends that are Christians too (-:

i also feel like its important for me to note that in my past i have dealt with bulimia and i have my bad days (rarley but they do happen) but i am definitely going strong with recovery.

very excited to start this journey!!

    I'm a Christian too. Was praying last night for His guidance to help me have an eagle eye on what I eat so I lose weight slowly so it stays off for good. Blessings to all.

    I'm a firm believer in my amazing savior, Jesus Christ! I'm looking to lose about 25lbs. I've been on a 1200 calorie lifestyle change since 2/2014. Felt like the pounds aren't melting off anymore until I recently read a blog that was posted on My Fitness Pal home feed, mentioning that I would need to pinch my calories more. Yikes! Starting that today. Good luck everyone. Pray for the Lord's guidance and seek him in all you do. ❤

    Double AMEN all day! Feel free to add me. Always glad to help :)

    Hebrews 10:25
    Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

    Ephesians 4:29
    Let no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but what is good for necessary edification, that it may impart grace to the hearers.

    Hello everyone! I just saw this thread. My name is Susan, I am trying to lose about 55 more pounds. I started this journey on January 6. I have used MFP before and lost over 100 pounds. I gained most of it back. This time I want to lose it and keep it off! I am a Christian. I am an encouraging person and at times I need encouraging also. We can do this with God first and the support of Godly friends!

    Yes, I'm a Christian, if not the sort people typically picture. I pray at home rather than church and I have liberal views.

    It's always encouraging to know we have Christian brothers & sisters on MFP! God wants us to be good stewards of these earthly bodies while we have them
