    Hello curvymegan89 and All, I just joined MFP on March 14, 2016 and I lost 40lbs. Prior to this, I lost 18lbs in exactly one whole year! I have lost more weight on MFP in 4 months than I did in a year on my own! Thus I have lost a total of 58lbs! Yay!!! But I have 72lbs to go! I believe in motivating and cheering my friends on! I make it a point to cheer my friends on with inspirational comments and "likes" everyday!

    I have found that some people treat this community like Facebook, but I take great care in trying to be an inspiration and motivator for my fitness pals; however, some people do not reciprocate. I will be there for my pals and I want pals to motivate me when I need it. Anyone who wants to reciprocate is welcome to add me.

    I will be making friend requests to you curvymegan89 and all of the other commenters that expressed an interest in having motivational friends. Look for @Pattycake755.

    P.S. In case any of you are interested, I have written a few articles on my personal blog about my weight loss journey and my journey to wellness. I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes March 2015 and with complications from diabetes March 2016 (neuropathy and retinopathy). My motivation: I could become cripple, go blind or die. I MUST eat right and lose weight to live and live a good quality of life.

    Hi all,
    I'm new to MFP and finally ready to take control of my weight. I would love to have some motivational friends who share similar weightloss goals, so we can keep each other accountable.
    I'm currently 100.7kgs (222lbs) with a goal weight of 79kgs (174lbs).
    If you log in every day or have over 50lbs to lose, please add me and let's do this together! :)

    Add me.....love help

    I try not to focus on a certain amount to lose as anything is good. I find that putting a number for me does more harm than good. I weight 313 and am 5'6". Needless to say I have a lot that I need to lose. If I can get in the habit of checking in here, I think the motivation from everyone will be a huge help. I'm happy to motivate you!

    Hello, I am a 50-something working mom/grammie living in Las Vegas. I did a 2 week sugar detox starting July 1st and am down 12 lbs. 71 to go. I am 4 days into Leslie Sansone walking videos and can only handle 20 minutes worth now, but I hope to get all the way through the video eventually! I am trying to stay under 1450 cals a day and REALLY watching my sugar, salt and bread. The sugar detox landed me 9.5 lbs down in the first week, and 2.5 in the next 2 weeks, so I'm pretty sure I was retaining water but I'll take what I can. I am really committed to being an active grandma so I'm ready for a life change!
