    Feel free to add me. I understand how it can be, with the lack of support at home. 6 people in my house and none of them are much help to me! You need to understand that this is your life and only you can control it. You are doing great!!!!

    First things first if you change the I want to lose weight to I WILL lose weight everything flows from there :wink:

    I know it can be a struggle to get motivated when you have a small support system. Living with my parents and trying to lose weight was a nightmare! As they are both obese and refused to help with keeping the crap foods away from the house!

    I would love to have new friends to help reach their goals as well as to receive some feedback too. :happy:

    it takes time but at least you've lost a few pounds and not gained. Every little bit helps, make sure you're drinking you're water. I see you went over your sodium one day but If you're drinking your water it will flush some of that salt out and prevent that water weight, which I believe is the first thing you loose, then fat.
    Make sure you add us...like others said the more the merrier! :flowerforyou:

    I struggle so bad with sodium and with getting enough water. Those will be my new goals. Thanks sooo much for your support adn advice!

    Great job! You have made the first step in your journey...Changing your life style..I'm with you. I just started on Monday and it is a struggle, but I am determined to lose this weight. It is so depressing to go out around people and you keep checking your body wishing the fat would go away. Well it hasn't gon away so I'm going to make it go away. Good Luck!!

    1.2 lbs in two days is a great start, good for you! I, too, am trying to add more vegetables into my diet. I try to have a small V8 juice everyday, usually mid morning. Can't say that I love the taste but it fills me up, I am adding a serving of vegetables where I normally would not have one and I find it has been helpful.

    Hi!!! I've been in MFP for a couple of weeks and I'm loving it! I've been struggling weight my whole life as well, and I realized the best way to live a healthier life is when someone is supporting you. So, feel free to add me! WE CAN DO IT!

    I am always happy to have more friends on here. I have a long journey to undertake, but I am determined to succeed. Too many reasons not to.

    I am here every day, I am pretty good with my diet, not so with the exercise side, but that is something that I am looking to change. I am happy to motivate, to praise and to make comment where I can. I am always looking for good advice, so the more active friends the merrier.

    My profile is complete so you can take a look, but generally a middle aged husband and dad looking to spend as much time as possible doing the things i enjoy.

    I'm going through the same thing! I was 195 - I have lost 15 pounds so far. I've started exercising regularly, cutting and counting calories, portion control, and i am taking some of the supplement from over the counter Walgreen's. I need motivation !!! It's easy to start a program but to keep on going and stick with it is hard. Especially if you don't see the results you want as quickly as you would lIKE! hANG IN THERE! kEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!! And drink a ton of water!!!! iT REALLY HELPS!
