in Introduce Yourself
Hi everybody. I do have to say before I go on that I have a few really great motivational friends on here but I need more. I'm 27 looking for girls, sorry guys, around my age or younger. I really need the motivation. Let me introduce myself first.

My name is Solange. As I said I'm 27. I live in Brooklyn, NYC. I've been on this fitness journey since the Monday after Thanksgiving, so ten going on eleven weeks now. I'm very active but I have a problem with eating back calories I burn. I struggle with it but I'm getting there. I'm really looking for people around my age looking to lose at least 50-80 pounds. I'm looking to lose 73 all together and I've lost 25. I really want positive people to push me. I do still enjoy my twenties meaning I go out, I do drink sometimes and I'm a big snacker. I'm a nanny so I eat a lot of strange foods that the kids I watch do. If I sound interesting add me.

I do keep a blog on here but for the time being it is private. I'm planning on making it public in a few weeks. Just looking for support.

    I'm 24 & finally took the leap into joining the forum. I found MFT in the beginning of Jan & have dropped 13lb so far, 53lb more to go for my goal! A minor medical issue made me face the scale & realize that I needed to change. This isn't a diet for me, but a life change. In the beginning I hadn't joined the forum because i'm so used to forums with critical members, but so far the posts i've read make me feel like this is one of the most positives forums i've seen!

    Hi, I'm Tabatha!

    I am 25 and still have about 60 lbs to lose.. I also have some similar issues. Working out isn't so bad but eating the extra calories can really be challenging sometimes. It's great to have MFP friends to help keep each other motivated. Feel free to add me! Everyone! The more, the better. :)
