Looking for Fun Fatties!

Hi all! I don't have any friends on MFP, but I'd love to find a couple of motivation buddies! I'm a 34 year old lady looking to lose about 100 pounds. My diary is set to about 1500 calories a day. I was also just diagnosed with PCOS, so if you're one of the lucky ones with that please friend me because I don't know much about it yet.

My diary is open. I'm very honest. I love to have a few adult beverages, so you'll usually see that on my log. AND COFFEE. I will gladly give up food calories for my delicious, delicous morning coffee. So don't expect clean eating, but I use a scale so it's pretty accurate!

Really I'm just looking for some nice people with similar goals so we can say "Grats!" to each other when we lose a pound or have a good day. So happy fun people, lets get together for some awesomeness!

    Also I had lost 90 pounds here in the past, but I gained it back. No excuses here, but I'd like to think I can do it again and so can you!

    Hi, I'm Rikki (this is actually my first post!) I am 30 years old and have about 100 lbs to lose. I'm set at about 1600 calories right now.

    I also lost 90 lbs here a few years ago but ended up gaining 70 lbs back. I'm not interested in "dieting" anymore to lose weight but in finding healthy options that I can imagine doing for the rest of my life (and losing some weight in the process, if that makes sense).

    I have a pretty active job (where I go up and down stairs all day) and a dog that keeps me on my feet a lot. I've spent this week lurking in the forms and I'm ready to start supporting others now that I think I'm headed in the right direction myself :)

    I'm sending you a friend request!

    Hi I'm Claire. I'm 30 and have 70 lbs to loose. I previously lost 84 lbs on here but have gained back most of it :/ My calorie goal is 1270 because I have arthritis and not very mobile at the moment. Last time around my calories were a lot higher because I was pretty active. Struggling this time around with the much lower calories. But I've lost it before and I'm determined to loose it again :) Sending you a friend request.

    Hi I'm Abbie. I'm 36 and have 100 lbs to lose. I work from home so I find it difficult to stay active. I would love to be friends and get some motivation going!

    Hi! My name is Sara and I am hoping to lose 80-100 lbs. I have a complicated relationship with food. I stress/emotionally eat and have a hard time dealing with my cravings.
