Hey guys!
I only recently lapsed with MFP mainly down to going on holiday... But I figure it's definitely not too late to pick it up again, as it definitely does work! However I'd love to make some friends this time round for mutual support, because it seems like theres some great people on here. At current I'm 149lbs and would ideally like to get somewhere between 115 and 120lbs but I guess I'll just stop when I'm happy with how I look. I'm doing this so I can be completely comfortable with how I look, and wear whatever clothes I like : ) !
Good luck to everyone!

    Hi There,

    I'm in a similar postition to you I lost over 50lbs with the help of MFP but I am now starting to put the pounds back on. I'm determined not to creep back up to my original size so it's time I got a grip!

    Add me if you wish, perhaps we could support each other

    I'm kinda in the same situation. Took about a month off because of some family stuff, now I'm trying to get back into the swing of things.

    I'm sorry to hear that : ( Well let's do it together : ) I think starting off again is the hardest bit! x

    Welcome again! This is my second time around. At first I didn't get involved in the community. This time around I am, because there is definitely a lot of support on here. Good luck on your health journey. :smile:
