I'm new and trying to lose weight on my own, and was hoping to connect with others who have around 100 lb to lose. I feel I'd do better on mfp, instead of doing it alone.

    Hi Karly! I’d love to join you. I have about 100 pounds to lose and I find it easier when I’m held accountable and connect with others!

    Hi Karly, I too need to loose 112lbs. I am more than happy to buddy up with you! I know what you mean about accountability! @Mama530 happy to buddy up also!

    My start weight was 285lbs
    Current weight 272lbs
    Goal weight 168lbs

    I had lost quite a bit until February this year, got down to 243lbs but due to stress and tiredness it had caused me to gain it nearly all back on. I am 13lbs away from heaviest and I am determined to not go back there again!

    We can do this...one step at a time!

    I am in this boat. First year teacher weight and covid quarantine weight added to menopause has been a huge downer for me. I have tried WW and it worked for me when I was in my 30s; not so much now. MFP helped me after I left WW. And here I again.
    I'd love to friend you if someone would tell me how. I could use some help.
