Hey everyone,

Drop me a friend request and post on here if you want some new friends. Write your goals down below as well as a few other things if you want and see who has similar goals. I saw another post like this but it was old, looking for people who are still logging in daily and who are serious about staying accountable!

I am 26 and trying to lose 40 pounds. I am 5'4 and 185 pounds.

:)

    Hi I'm new here and looking for some friends to share the journey with.
    I have a goal of 100lbs to lose. A big task, but I really need to get this done.
    I am getting married in 2019 and I refuse to be a fat bride.

    hi, 27 years. i am trying to achieve at least 190lb this year. but my nearest goal is to achieve at least 230lb to a cycling race on june. i am 175cm height.

    i was on a hard diet 2 years ago. i am coming from 305lb, i achieve 232lb as my lowest weight and them i quit for a while. now i am 256lb. it's hard to keep on track :neutral:

    @Shapingupforlife, I added you! And sent you a message. I typically log every day, or at least every other day, but with some extra accountability, I hope to make it an actual everyday habit.

    @Shapingupforlife, @SoftkittyFatkitty, @Max0727, @leonel309 ... looks like my goals and/or activities are inline with your. It's fun to pretend with myself that I hit every mark w/ MFP. :smile: However, knowing that numbers don't lie and that others can see those numbers, I'm encouraged to put down the pastries and go after better options. I'm adding all of yous!

    Hi all,
    I'm 5ft 5in, approx 180lbs, age 23. I have good intentions but never seem to stick with MFP or the gym I still pay for. Never tried these forums before, hopefully it will be motivating!
    I'm pretty good at motivating other people IRL so hopefully we can help each other.
    Charli :smile:

    34 and finally been taking my health seriously for the past year...I've lost 110 pounds since May 2016. Started with this app in December when I shifted my focus from strictly weight loss to building muscle and (somewhat) maintaining weight. I want to lose some more, but I don't want to do it at the expense of muscle. I wish I could lose the weight in the areas of my choosing...it seems like my inner tube wants to stick around.
