in Introduce Yourself
Roxanne from OR. I am a stay at home mom, literally stay at home all day. Haven't lived here long enough to much about the area, or to know many people. I've used my fitness pal before and it helped me to lose 50 lbs, sadly I barely read the forums and dare not post because of shyness :P Anyway I would love to get to know others who are on such a life changing journey. It isn't easy but its harder when its alone.

    Feel free to friend me. I know it's much easier to be successful the more you participate and talk to people. You'd be surprised how supportive people can be. Welcome back!

    :happy: Im new at all of this and really could use some friends too! I am recently seperated from my fiance and now with a broken heart and very little friends (I'm shy too) I really could use the support from this site as well as hopefully be supportive to others as well

    Welcome Back! I wasn't sure about introducing myself in the beginning either but decided to go ahead and I am so happy I did! I have some of the best support around now! MFP has such an amazing community! Don't be shy we're all here for similar reasons!

    Jan (teacher34) from Iowa. I was inspired to come here by my daughter-in-law, who's lost at least 35 pounds on this program. I've been on other programs before, but this seems to be the one that I need at this time in my life AND the one that will work.
