New to MFP & looking for Motivation Buddies

Options
Aloha from Hawaii!
My name is Katie and I actually joined MFP a while ago, tried to keep up with it, but didn't follow through. This time around I'm determined to use this tool to it's fullest extent, finally take off the weight I've been packing on for the past 9 years and stay that way. Like most people on MFP, I'm in need of motivation. I am alone on this journey and would love to make friends who I can cheer on and will do the same for me. Aside from wanting to be healthy and fit I am also doing this in hopes of increasing my chances at having a baby. My husband and I have not had much luck in this area and I'm hoping that dropping the extra pounds will help me reach my dream of starting a family. If you have similar goals or can relate to what I'm going through, please add me as a friend and we can be a support system for each other.
Hope to hear from you all!
Katie

    I did the same thing about starting MFP and not following through but I am back on it and really keeps me accountable. I personally haven't had children but my bf is going through what you are going through. She desperately wants to start a family but her weight is causing her problems. We try to keep each other motivated. I added you as a friend. Good luck

    Welcome aboard! I left and came back as well. I wish I had never left! I forgot how supportive and motivational everyone is here. I'm adding you if that's ok. I could always use more friends and support too! :)

    Hi! I'm new here too and like you I have joined weightloss sites with the best intentions and not followed through, but for me I can't let my weightloss get any worse I have got to change things right now. I am also looking for friends to support and who will support me and who understand the whole weightloss journey. I look forward to talking with you more and hope we can both reach our weightloss goals.
