    Hello! I just signed up a couple of days ago and am looking for motivational friends to help me. I've had a hard time losing weight because I have Lupus which means my body hurts all the time so I can't exercise. I used to be a fashion model but now I have to loose about 100 lbs. Would love to make new friends :-)

    Hi. I too just joined. I am a busy student so spend most my time sitting and studying. I need to lose 75 pounds to get back to ideal weight. I am exercising but only because I am on steroids. I have rheumatoid arthritis and this extra weight causes joint swelling and injuries. So I am taking it slow and building back up during this lull in my studies. Strength in numbers! We can support each other.

    Hey iam..

    I have lupus too and know exactly what you mean. I also modeled a bit, was always full of energy and skinny but that changed about the last 10 years. Still work physically hard but not to much exercise then tore my acl, had surgery 6 weeks ago and the pt is very hard and constant. I would love to exercise but between all the health issues its not working too well, but i have to loose 25-30lbs because i hate myself anymore. Good luck to you...lets motivate each other?

    Hey everybody!

    I started on here 4 weeks ago. I am 55 years old, and really just got tired of not feeling "good". I have a short-term goal to lose 50 lbs before I go on vacation to Cancun in Memorial Day. I'm happy to report that, with the accountability MyFitnessPal helps me to have, and with the Wellness Director where I work, so far I have lost 15 lbs, and feeling good! My friend and I are taking Salsa and Merengue dance lessons in preparation for our trip. Having a BLAST!!

    My long-term goal is...optimistic. I don't mind telling your I am 6'6". When I started my fitness program, I was 370 lbs. Everyone has always said, "But, you're so tall, you carry it well." Pshaw. I don't want to carry it anymore. Well. Poorly. I don't care. I'm tired of "carrying it. I'm now at 355, and my goal, by Memorial Day, 2013, is to be at 230. I have a long way to go, so I'm just going to enjoy the ride!

    By the way, I am truly inspired by my mom. She would KILL me if put age, etc. on here. But, every day she gets up and does yoga, or her Jane Fonda workout, or her Raquel Welch workout, or on nice days, she walks the neighborhood. For Christmas, I got her a Pilates workout CD. She said it's a challenge, but she really likes it. How cool is SHE!!!

    I love reading everyone's stories on here. So, keep up the good work!!! And, appreciate every day. They are all precious!

    Hello. Can I join the party! 44 years old and about 12 years ago I topped out at 310lbs. Granted I'm 6'3" but still a big boy. Now I'm 5 to 10 lbs away from my goal weight but every time I get close I sabotage myself. I fall back into bad habits and binge on junk food and sweets.

    Even after I hit my goal weight, the work isn't done. I want to lower my body fat. That may prove to be harder that just losing the pounds. I know I have eating issues and I dabble in Over-eaters Autonomous. That really helps motivate me but I could use a circle of friends with like-minded goals.

    Hi everyone!
    I am new here.. My goals is to lose the 25lbs that I have gained these last couple of months and then lose another 20lbs. I had lapband surgery in 2009 and I had lost 100lbs but have now since have gained 25lbs of that back by not making good food choices and lack of consistent exercise. I work at a Bariatric office that specializes in patients that are wanting to lose weight non-surgically and surgically and I am familiar with what I need to do but I am looking to meet some new people for support and be of support to others with the experience that I have had. I need to do better with my diet and exercise and hope to find some encouragement and give encouragement along the way. Please add me as a friend :happy:

    Hello! I have about 35-40 pounds to lose and I would love some friends! I am doing this with my mom and sister, but they aren't using fitness pal. I would use some support besides them, cause they are a little naughty some times and it makes me feel like I should be to. Best of luck to all of you!

    Hi everyone....I'm Lisa. I don't have alot of weight to lose, but I want to keep off what I have lost. I lost 25 pounds before I became pregnant in 2010, gained 40 pounds with the pregnancy and lost all the weight, but have gained a few pounds back. I don't think it matters how much we all have to lose, we all still suffer with the same anxieties about food and our weight. Anyone, please feel free to add me as accountability and motivation helps us all, I think. I have loved using this site since a friend of mine told me about it. Good luck to everyone meeting their goals one day at a time.

    Hi there! I've been on here about a month I think. I'm finally getting brave and reading posts. I have not lost any weight and I'm just a bit frustrated. So I would love to have friends to support and be supported. Only need to lose 20 pounds but seeking to lose it by June 30th. {sigh} So bring the new friends on............bring the support on...........bring the suggestions on...........and we can all support each other!:happy:
