Hi everyone and Good Morning...I am not new to myfitness pal but I hav recently "scrubbed" my friends list due to unactivity and lack of support.

I am one of those people that you have to kinda stay on or I won't do what I say I will...so if you think you can be that kind of friend for me please add me :)

I knwo I sound pushy/needy but I struggle (like most) to acheive my goals on a daily basis so ANY and ALL help would be fantatsic.

Thanks so much!

Jessica

    I totally understand having a support system is essential to staying on track and losing weight. I am a huge supporter of my friends and almost always write on their status. I am going to give you some real support and tough love now just as I would any of my friends. It may be a little hard to swallow and I am really not trying to hurt your feelings.

    Its really important that your accountable for yourself. Just because someone doesn't say "WTG" and gives their approval doesn't minimize your accomplished for the day and they are not responsible for your slip ups either. You are the one changing your life and your going to decide to pick up that piece of cake. It really struck a cord with me that you tell people your going to do something when you don't. It is time to get tough and say what you mean and mean what you say. I know if I had a friend who kept fibbing to me while I am working my butt off, I would probably stop posting on their status too. It minimizes my hard work and that's not fair.

    I am one of the nicest people you will ever meet but I am real too. You can do this. Its time to push forward for yourself and everyone will respect that.

    All I'm looking for is more supportive friends...that is all. Just some cheerleaders because honestly I'm in the military so people just expect us to be in shape and to stay in shape. There are very few people that have seen me on a day to day basis say anything about my weight loss to include my husband. The only support I get AT ALL is through this site so it's nice to have people on your side. I'm not going around telling anyone that I'm not going to do what I say I'm going to do and I hold myself accountable for everything. So maybe I should have re-phrased " am one of those people that you have to kinda stay on or I won't do what I say I will"

    O well..main point was just to get some fresh supportive people on my team and I would do the same for them.
