in Introduce Yourself
Hi! My name is Claire. I live in Wisconsin, I'm turning 27 this year, and I'm a newlywed as of June 2011. I have about 100 lbs to lose, and I'm using MFP and exercise to do it! I struggle with binge eating, especially at night, and I also have PCOS. But I know that with determination, patience, and mindfulness, I can do this.

I love the calorie tracking on MFP, but I also love the community here! I've stayed on track better since I found some friends... and I could use some more! Friend me if you want to give and receive support with me!

    Hi, my name is Laura and I live in Alabama. I am 39 and its my first day to try this. I really want to lose the weight so I can feel good about myself. I haven't felt very happy with myself in a long time. I really want to be able to go shopping and wear the cute outfits and know that I look good. I know that if we try hard and stay committed, we can reach our goals!! Good luck and know you are not alone in this fight!

    Hey everyone, my name is Bambie92 and right now I am 5'9" @ 120lbs but I'm trying to be 116lbs. I don't think it's bad at all. I always get great comments and such, so that's why I'm here, It's all about what you eat for breakfast that sets your whole day. :) I used to be 125lbs but I lost the 5 pounds in a week, If you want to know what I eat just ask. :)
