in Getting Started
I’m restarting my MFP journey and would love some friends to help keep me encouraged and accountable.

I used to love working out then got sick and stopped for about 3 weeks and it’s been hard to get back to it. Tomorrow (11/28) is THE DAY I get back to it and make myself a priority again. Wish me luck and please add me!

    I’m new too. I definitely need a small group to offer encouragement, accountability, and support.
    I need someone to celebrate our victories, share our challenges and provide motivation.

    I’m not exactly sure how to add you as friends.

    If you have any tips…I’d appreciate it.

    How do I add you as a friend?

    @abts1234: Hi there, I saw you wanted an accountability partner in the community section on here but don’t know how to add a friend. I just looked it up and thought I‘d try adding you myself, as didn’t know how to do it either. I went on my profile and chose the tab „friends“ - there you can search the nickname of the person you want to send a friend invite to.
    Let’s be friends on here and hold each other accountable ;-)

    To add a friend (via iOS appbut similar elsewhere);

    Enter your name or nickname. Don’t bother typing a message. An invitee will not see it. This function was disabled a couple years ago, due to pornbots and bitcoin type scams. You can type a novel and it will just disappear into the ether.

    Thank you for the description! Much easier! And here I sit wondering why there’s no response to the messages I added 😂😂😂

    You can thank the profile pics of manspreading ladies with no underdrawers for that.

    Unfortunately I don’t get this… English is not my native language. Is this some kind of saying?
    Edit: I get it… the pornbots…

    From today I have started my journey.
    And although I was under my calorie goal. But I will surely catch my goal..
    Please support each other in a journey

    I literally just started up again myself. It’s been a few years and I’ve gained all the 40+ pounds back after I had my third kid. I feel so heavy and unhealthy and not great overall. I’m open to any friends on here as well that are in the same about.

    Looking for accountability partners too. Please feel free to add me too. I’ve been trying to get back on track for a while. Ready to lose the weight but also to get an exercise routine
