Hi everyone. My name is Cat. I'm sure you guys get 349634697 posts from new people looking for friends, but I thought I would try it anyway.

I'm 31 and currently weigh about 256 lbs. My dream would be to lose 100 lbs, but I know that may not be realistic for me. Won't stop me from trying, though!

If anyone is looking for a new friend, please add me! :smile:

    It sounds like we have some similar stats and goals. I'm 35 and currently weigh 242 (started at 272) and am trying to get down to 160. Would love to add some new friends!

    Hi! I just joined and saw Cat's post. Start out by making small goals for yourself so you don't get discouraged. Congratulations on taking your first step. I have lost 125 lbs and have been able to keep it off for 2 years. I focused on 5 lb goals to keep me going.

    I recently joined the site as well. I'm pretty new to posting on message boards as well, so be sure to cut me some slack! I didn't even realize MFP had message boards. I would love to get more involved with people on here. The more support we each have, the better!

    A little about me...
    I'm 29 and would like to be out of the plus sizes before my 30th birthday. At my largest, I weighed 370 pounds. I had originally lost a little over 100 pounds and got down to 262 in September of 2010. I quit smoking in November of 2010, got married in May of 2011, and put 50 pounds back on. My current weight is 305.4 (down from my 1/1/12 weight of 312). I am currently tracking my calories and exercise through the mobile app, but I plan to be on here much more.

    I look forward to getting to know everyone!

    Hi, I am looking to take off 60 pounds and am looking for friends cuz I sure need some help doing this. I am finding it difficult to reach my calorie goal each day. I think I have it and then I add the exercise and it tells me to eat more.

    I have used this site on and off for around 2 years now. but it was always inconsistent. then i recently joined weight watchers. the myfitnesspal app is so much more intuitive and user friendly than the weight watchers app. also weight watchers costs a lot of money! however, the one thing weight watchers has which i never had on this site were real people to clap when you lose some weight! so this time around i hope to add some friends on myfitnesspal which will hopefully keep me motivated. so feel free to friend me!
