I'm looking for someone to check in on a regular basis (frequency TBD) for the purpose of accountability, motivation, and support.

My come back story is just starting off the ground. In 2011 I lost 111lbs through MFP and now I've gained all but 20-25lbs of that back. I'm a serial starter but don't want to get off track.

I know that someone to check in with on a regular basis through MFP or other means would be a huge help. Celebrate wins and discuss struggles with the journey.

P.S. If you just want a new MFP friend that is motivated and starting out and posts status updates, ADD ME. :)

    Totally agree. I gained almost 20 lbs in the last two years. I want to stop gaining more weight and just lose it. Hard to stay on track though

    I understand where you are at. I lost over 80lbs about 10 years ago and then had an incident that derailed me. I gained it all back plus more. Ive been here a month this round and have found that having MFP friends to interact with on my wall very motivating and uplifting. Dont narrow down to only one person. Everyone has a different perspective and some value to add 😊 Feel free to add me if you like.

    Yes, I like to have lots of active MFPers on my friends list and I added you as well as the others. I just find that having a one to one accountability can just be that next step up especially in starting out.
