100lbs to lose πŸ’œ I need friends!

Hi everyone!
I'm CJ! 36 years old from Mississippi and I just started yesterday on my journey to lose a little over 100lbs. Other than my husband (who is doing the journey too), I have very little support. I'd love to meet some people with similar goals so we can motivate and celebrate our success together. Feel free to friend me on here. 2020 is going to be OUR year!!

    Hi CJ! My name is Kimberly. I'm in my mid-30s and have an honest 40-50lbs to lose. I log in daily and love motivating and cheering on my MFP friends throughout their journey. It's always a little lonely when you have someone along side you cheering on the small victories :)

    Adding you now. Anyone else is free to add me as well!

    Hello CJ! I am Steve and I have an overall goal of 250 to lose, and minimal support. My girlfriend is very supportive, but outside of that, don't have much. I turn 34 in 3 1/2 weeks, so would love to cheer each other on!
  • I am Alexandra and I have a little over 100 pounds to lose to my first goal weight. I am 47, and if I lose the weight over the next 18 months and then prove I can maintain, I can get an abdominoplasty and start my fifties out with the body I want to keep!

    Hi, I'm Tammy (Florida). Feel free to add me.

    I've got 65 pounds to lose. I got off 11 pounds, and then gained a few (3) back over Christmas. I managed to get those off, and I am now steady, and working toward my goal. My husband has been really supportive.

    Hi! I, too, have around 100lbs to lose. I used to be a lot more active on this site and have recently started utilizing it again. It turns out that the majority of those on my current friend list seem to be inactive as well. I would love to have your support and to support you in return! :smile:

    Hi CJ, my name is annmarie and I'm from a small town in England. I have around 55 pounds to loss and apart from my mum who is also losing weight I have no support either. You are more that welcome to add me and hopefully we can help encourage each other.. good luck x
  • I am Alex, and I have about 101 pounds left to lose; I lost 3 last week. (grin)
    My partners are being very supportive, and I'm helping my girlfriend learn to portion her food rationally, but this is my walk and not theirs, so I'm always happy to have supportive friends here too.

    I also have the challenges of weightbearing on arthritic joints, fibromyalgia and exercise intolerance, and foodwise a fructose intolerance and IBS to make my choices more interesting. Fortunately, I love to cook.
