Hello! How's everyone doing? Hopefully well and on your way to some great weight loss victories! I'm currently looking for some friends and accountability here on MFP. Been using this for a few weeks now and have already lost 10 lbs!! Friends, family, and coworkers have expressed interest but have not really done anything to get on board. Which leaves me constantly watching my own news feed, and its a little lonely. So if anyone is also looking for encouragement and new weight loss buddies, please feel free to add me!!

    I'll send you a request! I've only been using the website portion for about 2 weeks, so I'm looking for some more friends as well :)

    Thank you all so much! We can all only do so much to keep encouraged by ourselves. But having other people around that are working.g towards the same goal pushes us further. And let's us know we are not alone!

    I know that its hard to keep up with everything all the time. Since MFP is not mobile with the chat three I find that FB helps me more with accountability. I am in an accountability group with a bunch of AMAZING people and they are not afraid to be honest with you. Check it out if you'd like www.facebook.com/groups/fiercefighters There is no program specifications. Just as long as you are active and trying to be healthy/fit. This group offers advice on nutrition, staying positive, motivation, and keeping the will to stay committed.
    Also feel free to add me too if you'd like on MFP. Either way there are always benefits in numbers.
    Stay strong, live healthy, he happy!

    Feel free to add me too. It definately helps when you have support from people who are doing the same as you, especially when you see they are achieving their own goals. Its like an inspiration and keeps you focused.
