I just wanted to say that the comments and suggestions people are leaving for me have really made a big difference. I have been going at this for 3 weeks now and have only lost 1 lb. In previous weight loss attempts, this was pretty standard for me. It takes about 4-6 weeks for me to loose weight for some reason.

I have wanted to quit. I really have. Its hard sometimes but seeing the encouragement from other people working toward similar goals really helps. And I love to give that back as well. Looking to build my friends list so I can be encouraged and give encouragement as well!

And thanks for all the support so far!

    I completely agree! It's great to not only get the support from people with similar goal, but to also help others out. It's making me more accountable, and in return bringing me more success!

    I am so much more motivated since I have added friends to this MFP account. I only know one personally, but they all have been so supportive. It's amazing how positive everyone is to be on a new health plan. :smile:

    I completely agree. The support received is wonderful. The goals and acheivements of others is inspirational. And I hope that I give the same support and inspiration to others as I have received myself.

    Same for me! I used to use MFP on my own, and it was helpful, but getting friends and having an open diary is making me more consistent.
