Hello! My name is Maureen.:smile: I just joined. I'm from south jersey. I'm also looking for fitness support. I've been doing this on my own, and it hasn't been easy. I don't have any friends or family members that are going through this journey of weight lose.

    Hi! I'm in Calgary Alberta. I just joined this group myself and it appears that there is a lot of support to be had. Support helps the weight loss journey. Good luck on yours!

    Hey Maureen! This site is wonderful! I have been here almost 4 weeks. Official weight is 10 pounds off, it fluctuates though. I am lucky that my husband is doing this with me. My kids are not as thrilled about us dieting (no junk food around the house). A word of advise. If you are craving something, look up the calorie count prior to eating it. It may discourage you from eating a full serving of it. Most people on here are great. They encourage you when you need it, they cheer all of your successes (even the tiny ones).

    MFP is a great site. You'll find lots of support here. Feel free to add me as a friend. I grew up in NJ and live in Mass now.
