Need Encouragement

Hi there! I have been flying solo on MFP for about 5 or 6 weeks and I have lost 15 lbs. I am getting a little discouraged cause I haven't lost anything in the last week :-( I haven't connected with anyone on here and thought that it would be nice to find someone to do this with! Hope you all have great success!!

Losing the 15 lbs in a little over a month is great! If you don't lose in a week, don't let it discourage you. I would love to be friends on here. I have been trying to find the motivation to get going the way I should.0

Welcome emersmom04, you've come to the right place. There's not a more encouraging and supportive fitness site than this one! Lots of great people who are ready to help.0

I was doing the same thing you did until I felt I needed some encouragement, the minute I began adding friends I felt a new hope. They are all so encouraging and inspiring and motivating, you will love it! We all have the same goal to lose weight and keep it off. Welcome!0

That would be great! Thanks! After my first daughter I had gained so much weight and had done the low carb diet and lost 82 lbs and ended up in the hospital because of the diet. So...this time I wanted to do it healthy and it is just moving so slow....we can motivate one another :-)0
