I'm new to the site and am in need of supportive friends to encourage me and whom I can encourage too. Ideally I would like to lose around 100 lbs but would be happy with 50-60. I've just started running and am really enjoying it.

  • Welcome!! I'm new here also! I've been logging for a couple weeks now! You are going to love this site!! Everyone is so nice and encouraging..It really makes you want to make a change in your life!! You can add me if you'd like :) We can sooo lose the weight we want because we deserve it! Running is an excellent way to torch calories, and the "runners high" feeling isn't so bad either... Just sayin :)

    Hi, Please add me, I am also new to the site (been here for about a week, but mainly use it on my iphone app) I am determind to loose my weight and to be happy with myself. I came online to find friends who also would like to encourage me and for me to encourage them, I think it makes such a huge difference. Would be great if all of you guys could add me or me add you??

    Hello all,
    I too am new here. I have been working on my weight loss since Sept. 1st. and I have quit smoking too. My husband supports me and is working on weight loss too but of course his is a lot faster then mine and at 22 pounds now.

    Welcome aboard. You have come to the right place. I have been on here for a little over 4 months and love the support and motivation I have received from my new found friends on here. If you are a person that does not use cuss words in your posts, then feel free to add me as a friend and motivator. I do not like to hear ugly words and do not like to read them either. So if you are someone that likes to use this kind of language, please do not send me a friend request, but if you use clean language only, then friend request me. Thanks and good luck to you.

    Hello Jomar, and all who responded. I am new also and love the site, I am amazed at how well I have done in less than 2 weeks of tracking. I didn't realize how important it is to have friends to cheer you on an applaud your success. On days when I have a loss or when I'm able to log in some exercise, I long to have someone say well done. My husband is sportive but not online. Not sure why but my request to family and friends to join have gone UN-answered. So on a more joyful note... good luck to all, and if anyone would like a friend I'm here.
