Bunny looking for adoption!
30, dialysis patient simply looking for a mentor to chat with and help get settled into MFP. I love to cook, write, plan, stream, all manner of things but when it comes to exercise...I'm bleh without a partner to go along with me. I'm not asking to be babied just a nudge and a bit of encouragement is all.1 -
I would love to be adopted!
I've been super focused on dieting in a sense, mostly calorie counting but making sure I meet most of my macro-nutrients by eating healthier. I understand it's a lifestyle change. Also exercising daily. I know I have a long way to go but eager to keep up with this journey.
30yrs old from San Antonio, Texas! Lost 20lbs in the past two months, aiming for about 50lbs more to meet my target weight of 170lbs. But I'm also going to try to tone up with muscle as well. Would love some mentoring advice!1 -
Hi! I'm 20, female, 220lbs (10 lb loss) and I'd love to have a mentor. I'm from the U.K. and so far my plan is to calorie count until around 200lbs then join a gym to burn fat and build muscle. I've been doing it for about a month and I'm pumped to see how much better I'll look and feel.1

I would love a mentor! I'm new to this app and would really like to lose weight. I've been on and off with eating healthy/exercising for the past two years but I would really like to try to be consistent. Let me know if you would like to be my mentor! I'm 24 years old and am a new mental health counselor.0

A mentor would be great! I am 47 and am trying to cut about 20 lbs and build muscle. Most importantly, I am seeking healthier eating habits. I go to the gym regularly but don't know what I am really doing. There is so much information out there that it is overwhelming. A good mentor would be very helpful.0
-
Hey! if there is anyone out there that wants to be a mentor to me that would be great!
A little bit about me - well I am overweight, d'uh! but seriously I could do with losing about 50lb (or more) currently I am 239lb at 5'11''.
I guess what I am looking for is for somebody to help with motivation to exercise more as well as provide some dietary advice. I go through spurts of motivation but lack a little on the consistency, so I am thinking that a mentor will help me overcome that!
Shout, nudge or message if you think you can help!

Hello everyone! I am definitely available to mentor anyone who is interested. I have been on my fitness pal for a couple of years now and log every day. I try to bike, run, or do yoga every day of the week, if possible. I have lost 75 pounds so far from tracking, exercise, and lifestyle change. I keep my food log public for all to see Fitness is a huge part of my life - I biked this summer to prepare for Ragbrai and I am running to prepare for a half marathon next summer. I have done yoga for years and plan to become certified when I am out school. Message me or add me as a friend if you like! I am happy to share any suggestions and advice.0

I’d like to have someone take me under their wing! I’m eager to do whatever it takes to become healthier. I absolutely need someone to call me out on my excuses, I catch myself making them a lot1
-
If anyone is looking for a mentor, I would be more than willing to help where I can. I have taken a couple of people under my wing so far, and to be honest, helping them helps me on my own journey as well. We can gain from a little motivation some times.0

EAT and eat somemore! I put my bf on a clean bulk and he gained greatly! He had a high metabolism so it was alot of food all the time! gaining is just as hard as losing. Pb sandwhiches at night and caesin if you take protein. A lot of bodybuilders who are bulk clean will eat a pint of icecream at night to slow down metabolism. YOU JUST GOTTA KEEP EATING! you can do it0 -

I need a mentor.
I have a history of being a very healthy and fit gym-rat, however life happened and 4 years later I ended up older, out of shape, overweight, not engaged in any outdoor activities, super busy, and smack dab in the beginning of a new chapter of life. It's more than starting over, I'm learning a whole new ball game. What used to work regarding food and fitness don't anymore.
I'm hopeful, have grace on my side, and am ready to start fresh. I can learn new things and do this... with some help from some friends!0 -
I'd love to be adopted! I recently turned 29. I am getting married next June and would love the support from someone else who has struggled with losing weight. I love being outside, reading, playing with my dog, and spending time with friends and family. I recently was put on insulin for diabetes, so I am motivated to lose weight and obtain a healthy lifestyle. I am excited to get a mentor -Mary Kate0

I want to be adopted! I need to be adopted!
I am a mother of five children and I am 30years old. After seeing photos of myself at a family function I have decided that I need to lose some weight. Currently I weight 232.8 lbs and my goal weight by December 30th (which also marks my 31st birthday) is to get to 200 - 210lbs and then ultimately reach a satisfying 170lbs.
I am looking for people in my area to keep motivated, provide suggestion and advice. This is about to be a hard uphill battle but I believe it will be completely worth it!
Also I am in the Canada.0
