Looking for more friends!

in Introduce Yourself
I've been on here for over 3 months now, and I am looking for more friends who use this site/app daily. I have several friends who have dropped off left and right and it's hard to keep going with others are quitting so easily. I love the support system here and I think that's part of my success.

At my heaviest I was 187 pounds, and made it to 155 in about 8 months with regular diet and exercise. I kept the weight off for a year, but then gained 10 pounds Fall 2011 semester since I was so busy with two jobs, school, studying, etc. So I joined this site in February at 165 lbs and it's definitely kept me accountable for everything I eat and exercises I do/don't do.

Anyways I'm looking for really anyone who uses this daily, and looking to lose weight in the healthiest way possible. I'm 25 years old and a huge nerd (I like anime). I made it to a 16 pound loss (149!) but I went on vacation and gained some of it back and I'm working to lose it again.

Feel free to add me!

    Strange coincidence, My heaviest weight was also 187, started here at 163, and am down 12 at 151! I am on daily, and have had some friends flake on me. Add me, I could use the support!

    I'm in the same boat as you and am looking for some support as well. I have just started about a week ago, but am on daily and have nobody doing this weight loss with me as support.

    Hi!
    I am Heather and looking for others who use this site everyday and make me more accountable! I have been working out regularly for the last year even did a 5k in under 40 minutes but still lost NO weight! UGh so now I am on a 1200 calorie diet trying to loose weight. I lost two pounds this week but now I have PMS so I am worried I will get frustrated. I just want to have others to talk to as well. I am teaching my kids good habits, my oldest is 9 and very active: runs, lacrosse swimming, etc. However, her father (my spouse eats like crap_ candy sugar, cholesterol and does not gain so I want her to see healthy even if you stay thin. Plus it is hard to have this stuff in the house:)
    Add me if you want:)
    and thanks

    Ok I'm not going to take anymore friend requests! As much as I like having a lot of friends on here, I just got about 50 requests and I was expecting maybe 10 at most.

    lol, I'm a little overwhelmed! (I got you Neapata!)

    I'm 25 years old and a huge nerd (I like anime).

    There is nothing wrong with enjoying anime... We are diehard fans of Rumiko Takahashi and have just about every anime collection she has ever created. Im 38 years old and anything Sci-Fi goes VERY well with me! lol!

    anybody can add me if they like.. I haven't been on everyday, but that's simply because I don't really have any friends on here to support me... Good luck to you all.
