Here for support

When I first started MFP I was not sure about adding people and did not really understand how much support was on this site. So I started to add people and love the support. I then started to share some of my insight and found sharing with others helps me stay motivated because I do not want to share something I have not already done myself or working towards doing.

So now I am offering to those who need some support, someone to check in on them when they have not logged in after a few days. Someone who has been there and done that working on health goals and still has to work hard to stay motivated. If you add me to your friends list I WILL email you if you have not logged in for a few days so if you’re not into that type of support I am probably not the person for your friends list.

I get excited about helping others and helping myself. I believe in giving everyone the opportunity and you do not have to be vocal just consistent in your journey. I love my wife and kids who provide a ton of support which allows me to spend time doing what I enjoy. So if you don’t mind a swift kick from time to time and want to learn your not the only one that has to work hard towards your goals go ahead ADD me and let’s get this done!!

    I just added you :happy: I find that having positive support on a regular basis definately helps. I struggled with my weight for years and it wasn't until I joined a support group of fabulous ladies that I really started losing the weight. Here I am, 7 months later and 46 pounds lighter, and in much better shape than I have been in years! I am only 28 lbs away from my goal and I couldn't be happier about it!
