100lbs to Lose, Looking for Friends to Provide Mutual Support!

in Getting Started
Hello!
I am back to MFP after a 2.5 year hiatus. Previously, I have had a lot of success with MFP - losing 35lbs to reach my goal weight. But my life has thrown me a few curve balls since then and I have not only gained back all of the weight I had lost but added 70 extra pounds onto my 5'6" frame... So I've got about 100lbs to lose.
I've had a lot of denial during my weight gain and I think it has finally hit me that I am "morbidly obese" and need to make a drastic change in my life.
I would love to make connections through MFP with others who have major lifestyle changes to make!
- Jayme

    Good for you for making the decision to come back. You did it once so I'm sure you'll do it again! I've got about 100lbs to lose too and am just in my first week. Feel free to add me!

    Hey Jayme first off that kitten is adorable and secondly good for you for rebooting your healthy lifestyle. I too lost about 60 lbs about 8 years ago but after a year I gain that weight back plus more. I starting eating healthier and doing exercise 2 months ago and I'm already down 30 lbs. I would like to lose another 60-70 lbs. Feel free to add me. Encouragement is something everyone needs and I would love to find like minded people so we can support each other without judgement.
