Hello, I'm not new to the site, but I'm trying to get going again. I'm a habitual and emotional overeater that is trying to get back on my feet, stop the overeating and lose the 15lbs that have been knawing on me for the past 13 years. I'm looking for some friends who are in a similar situation or just plain motivating! Please add me if you want :)

    Welcome. I am trying to lose about 20 - 30 lbs to get to my ideal/healthy weight. I also started my weight loss progran to give more support to my wife. She has been trying for some time. I will add you. Good luck and stick with it.

    I am new too. This is will be my first week of doing this. I am an emotionally eater and want to lose at least 60-70lbs. I have trouble staying on track. I am good for awhile but then get side tracked. I will take all the support I can get. Hopefully this time around this will work. I will add you and good luck.

    Hi. I'm new to myfitnesspal also. I am very motivated. I came across this website through my phone app when I was looking for a calorie counter. I haven't lost any weight yet because today is only the second day of the beginning of my lifestyle change for a healthier life. No way am I calling it a diet! I'm not dieting. I've done that several times before and failed! It went well until I went back to my old habits. I educated myself for success this time. I'm changing my entire way of thinking about exercise and food. I set a realistic goal to reach 149 lbs in a year. That is my target weight. I am looking for some friends that are trying to lose weight. I'm losing weight not for vanity reasons (although being slimmer will be nice too), but because poor health issues run in the woman in my family. I"m willing to be supportive and a motivator.

    Hi! I'm also relatively new to the site, i've had it for a while but i lack the motivation sometimes so i come and go =( i'm determined to lose about 30-40 lbs this time around!! i've been doing good for the past two week but i can't seem to hit my calorie goal i get to 900 and i feel pretty good. i don't want to send my body into starvation mode (i've done that before and it was not good) but i'm not sure if i should push myself to where i'm forcing food down my throat. i'm also extremely unsure of the weekly weigh ins actually of weighing in altogether, i'm afraid that number wont change... sigh i'm having trouble staying positive, could use some words of wisdom =(
