in Introduce Yourself
Hey all!
I'm not new to the MFP app, but new to the community!
After steadily gaining 40+ pounds in 3 years, I'm ready to commit. What's even more motivating is the fact that I am going to be a Maid of Honor in a wedding in July.
I received my dress from Davids Bridal yesterday (a size 14) and though it zips up- it feels very snug. My first mini-goal is to shed enough so that the dress looks/fits better on me.
I would love to add some new friends to keep us both motivated through our journeys!

    Hey. You've already got some amazing motivation through the wedding. I am trying to lose 40 pounds as well. Many failed attempts were made in the past too so this time I have decided to break up my major goal into several mini goals. I want to start small but strong.
    Anyway, I am also looking for friends I can connect with on a regular basis to keep up the motivation and accountability factor. Add me. :)

    Im a dancer and I preform a lot. I'm hoping to loose weight so I look and feel more confident when dancing or just at the store. Its hard to find people who motivate you. I'm hoping we could motivate each other to have a more healthy and happy lifestyle. :) (ADD ME!)
