in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I'm new..kinda.

I fell off the MFP wagon a few months ago after I lost a few lbs, and guess what? I gained it all back plus 10 extra lbs! So, now I have realized that fitness is a lifestyle and not just a sporatic period of dedication, so I'm in it for the long run. I have been re-committed for the last week, and am looking for new friends to journey together with.

So if you're looking for a friendly soul who is willing to exchange ideas, diet tips, and exercise regimens, as well as share results and encourage you, ADD ME!

Especially add me if you are bottom heavy or pear shaped! We need all the help we can get, am i right?! ;)

    Hey,

    I'm not pear-shaped, apple shaped unfortunately, although I guess whatever shape we are we will never be happy!

    I just wanted to welcome you back to MFP :) I did a similar thing, joined in January, stayed for a while but then left and gained all the weight back! Thankfully this time I've managed to stick around for a month and the weight is coming off.

    I wish you the best on your journey

    I'm definitely a pear shape and it runs in my family. I'm hoping to lose weight so I'm not such an obvious pear! Unfortunately I gain all my weight in my midsection, so people have asked me on a couple of occasions if I'm pregnant. It's embarrassing! I need to get rid of my food baby haha.

    You've learned a very important lesson here, and that is that what you're trying to accomplish here are lifestyle changes. It's an important lesson many of the people trying to lose weight should learn. If you go back to your old ways once you reach your goal, guess what happens? Of course you gain the weight all back and then some. But knowing this know (even though you had to learn it first hand, unfortunately) puts you one step ahead of the game.

    pear shaped right here! I can't wear straight dresses unless I get the top taken in. I am also trying to exercise to work my hips and butt.
