Looking for supportive friends.

I got this advice when I first started...fill out your profile, put up a pic, and just keep posting in forums...there's so many great people on MFP that people like to get to know you a little. I was a little taken aback at first, but seriously it is the BEST advice you can get. And good luck with your journey! Oh and just start adding people lol! that's what I did when I first got on (well ones that say 'feel free to add me" and stuff like that....!)
