I'm new - looking for friends.

I'm new here, I want to say MFP seems like it's going to be a huge help. I'm looking for friends that may be in the same boat as me. I'm a working mother, I'm obese and have a lot to lose (weight that is) I'm hoping to gain a lot too (self confidence etc...). Anyone that may understand or be in the same situations??? I'm looking for support and willing to be supportive. Thanks! :flowerforyou:

    I'm a mother of 2 with about 50lbs to loose....always looking for new friends! Feel free to add me too!
  • Hi there.. i am fairly new to this site... joined in january
    Since i joined i have found that i watch what i eat alot more...
    I never thought of myself as a calorie counter....HA....(that would normally be my response if someone suggested i do such a time-consuming thing)
    But it hasnt been bad at all.... and i find myself looking at labels on everything now...not even knowing im doing it..lol

    I am a working mom, like many others out here....Between kids, relationships, work, and all of lifes drama, i really let myself go... and i started to feel less confident and less like myself
    Me deciding to lose weight was because i no longer felt comfortable in the skin i was in!

    ...and i needed that back!
    i didnt care about what anyone thought about me...i wanted to do it for me... and since i started my journey back in September, i have more energy, i am more focused, i feel more like myself everyday....

    this has all been worth it...just to feel like myself again!

    Stay to your course...dont let anyone discourage you and be willing to put in the work.... and anything is possible!!!


    I would love to have new friends on MFP!

    Hi, I just started this yesterday too. I'm working on logging all my food, which has always been a struggle for me to accomplish. I hope I can be of help to you. I also need to lose 50 pounds, but this time I'm not going to get discouraged!
