    Hi there. I'm new to this journey also. I don't have any friends here either and I believe that is why I didn't keep going in October when I tried out this site. I really like the concept of this whole thing and have seen a difference already in understanding just how much calories go in when your not tracking it. I have never tracked my food before and can clearly see that it is beneficial. I think that having some friends to talk with and to encourage along the way would also be beneficial, so please add me if you would like. :)

    I'm extremely silly...but if you want to add me that will be GREAT! I know you can lose the weight naturally....without surgery. I also have children and it's been a big motivation for me to set an example for them. I don't want them to struggle with food and tobacco the way I have. P.S. I'll keep my eye out for a thirty something male who is funny and enjoys candlelight dinners.

    Hi Everyone - I've been off and on this site for the past few months...

    It's a New Year and I have so much more determination to get back on track. I'm getting married this October and I want to look good for myself, my soon-to-be Hubby and look good in my dress! But I know I won't be able to do it myself. I need a strong support system and I'm hoping I'll be able to find some really nice people on here.

    Don't be shy to add me! I'm always looking forward to meeting new people. ^_^

    joined couple of months ago, but been lazy to use the page. Going to start tomorrow so may be considered as a beginner. Very talkative beginner, by the way, so would love to make friends - the more the better (but unfortunately English isn't my native language, so please dont be strict judges reading this...). Feel free to add me! =^.^=

    hey! i completely agree! i'd love to get my roomies to join me on this thing, but they won't. it's difficult to stay on track when i live with people who aren't challenging themselves like i am. i'm just starting the use of mfp, but i've been on a roller coaster of losing and gaining for a couple of years. my mom is very helpful and supportive of losing weight, but other than that, friends and family tend to "get in the way" so to speak. having a social life (at least as a 21 year-old) means lots of going out, drinking, eating junk, guzzling mountain dew to stay up late. as i'm sure you know, we women tend to bond over chocolate and wine and "splurges." we know it's bad, but when we do it together, we feel like it's okay. this is where i get in trouble.

    i could use the support, as well :)
