Hey, my name's Lindsey :D How's everyone doing out there in mfp world? Is anyone in a similar situation to mine and want to shoot me a friend request? :D Has anyone gotten to their goal weight from a similar place? Want to help inspire me and send a friend request? I did really well on this site when I first joined it in 2010. I lost almost 40 pounds...and have ended up gaining back 20 of those pounds...working on trying to lose them again and dreaming of my goal weight of 130 :) It's a long road I'm facing and I'd love to have some fitness pals to share the experience with :) Even if you're not at a similar place...friend request me :) I love having friends who keep me accountable! :D


Thanks everyone!!! :D ~~Lindsey~~

    Hi, I would love to become friends with you up here. I will send you a request. I'm about 5'3 and to get to my goal weight I would need to lose 162 pounds. I think if we all have good support then we can reach our goals. :smile:

    Hi Lindsey I'm Jeniifer, I'm currently 197.8 lbs 5 foot tall and on a journey to be 130-120 also ( :
    MFP has helped me a lot and I'm down 35lbs.
    It's unfortunate you gained back 20lbs, but don't give up!

    Hi, I am currently at 293 lbs and am 43 years old. I would like to be friends and support each other on this life change and weight loss journey. I would also like to lose about 155-165 lbs or so to reach a healthy and maintainable weight. I just joined My Fitness Pal tonight and then found your post afterwards so that is kinda of neat.

    Hey there girl my name is sara I weigh 291 and I'm 23 year as well and 5'3...my goal is to lose at leaste 10plbs but the more the better...I gained so much weight after having my son and now that he 3 years old I want to have a second child,but my weight is such a big risk factor and I would love too feel good again...I gave myself so many excuse on not trying to lose and I just said to myself enough is enough...I've only been on mfp for about less than 20 days and I enjoy talking to other people who can motivate me and I can do the same....I wish the best of luck and I know you will get there to your weight goal..
