Looking for support & friends who need to lose 100+ lbs

Hi!! I set a New Years goal to lose 58 lbs by the end of this year, but I have roughly 150 lbs to lose in total over the next few years. I’d love to have friends who have similar goals so we can support each other! Please send me a friend request :)

    Hi everyone! I would love to be a part of this group. It is so hard to keep good habits when you don't have people you can share the struggles with. And yes my profile picture is meant to be motivation for me :)

    :'( Hi, so I’m on my 5,001 quest to be healthy. Right now I’m not even at my heaviest weight and my health is starting to go. I’m pre-diabetic, I have high cholesterol and now my knees are starting to bother me. At my age it’s just so hard to drop the extra weight. I’m the worst water drinker. I’ve drank so much soda if you cut me open I’d fizzle. I’m a single person so I hate cooking for just myself. I tend to gravitate towards fast food since it’s easy. I just feel like I’ve lost control of everything. I’m just so lost.

    My goal is 100# as well. I was doing good about 2 years ago. Lost 85# of that 100 but I stopped (life sux) and I gained back 65 of the 85 that I lost. It's all good though, I am 2 weeks into my goal (lost 13# so far)... I am looking for like minded people that are on the same journey... so, friend request coming your way!

    Hi, I thought I would reach out as I am looking for MFP friends. I may not be doing the same diet or lifestyle change that you are, but we are all after the same goal, losing weight and getting healthier. I think being able to interact some and support others helps with the process. So far I have lost 7 pounds and have 90 to go! 💪🏽🙏🏽🥵
    Here’s hoping you will add me for Support!

    Y'all got this!! Set your mind to it and nothing and no one can stop you. Take progress pictures... lots!! No one has to see them but you. They will show you change when the scale might not be showing you want you want to see. Focus. Set Goals. Go Get Them!! Wishing each of you the best!! You CAN do it!!

    Hi! I’m trying to lose at least 40 pounds by my graduation in June, and at least 90 by the end of the year. I’ve tired to lose weight many times before, but I always end up bailing. I’m hoping that with some support, you all can keep me accountable, and on track to reach my goals! Friend me!!!

    I am in the same boat as well. I am sending you a friend request. I have never used this app, but I am open to any and all help and support on my journey. I have over 200 lbs to loose... Any other resources or groups for Morbidly Obese persons you could send my way would be very helpful. Thanks!!

    Sent friend requests to many that already posted, any who comment after, feel free to add me as well. I have about 150 to lose. I had already lost 70lbs a few years ago, but the onset of many health problems caused me to spiral and regain. If i could do it once, I can do it again. And so can you, good luck everyone!

    I have about 100 I could lose but would be happy with about 50-70. I have lost 18 so far since having my 2nd baby 3 months ago.
