in Introduce Yourself
Hi Everyone!

My name is Vicki, I've been using MFP for a while but I decided to really make it a part of my life in the new year. I've been doing pretty well with this but I'd love to have some more friends to mutually support and encourage one another through our journey.

Please feel free to add me! :flowerforyou:

    That's me! I love MFP and have used it mostly on my Android since I really can't stand sitting at a computer. But it's winter and I've got things to do on here tonight and I decided to check these forums out. I am basically doing this journey on my own. My kids and husband support me but they are not doing it with me. So...congrats on your weight loss! :)

    Thank you!!!

    I've had the same problem where I felt like I was doing this alone. Whenever I would invite one of my friends, they would do it for a week and then stop. So I figured it was about time to get on the forums and up my friends for encouragement. Plus, everyone being able to see my stuff keeps me accountable!

    Hi, glad to meet you. I started mfp in early November, but the holidays got the best of me, now I'm back and looking for some support and friends. Having friends that are traveling the same journey is a big help.

    OH NO!!!! I guess that's better than just giving up....they didn't give you the false hope they'd do this with you. :ohwell:

    That's what MFP friends are for! They keep you motivated!
