I'm finally in the perfect place in my life to tackle my weight issues and make a serious lifestyle change!

I need all the support I can get on my journey to lose 100 lbs!

Please read my profile and if you think we have similar goals and could help each other, please request me!

I'd like to maybe have a small group of no more than 25 friends so that I can really focus on giving you all support, encouragement, motivating messages, etc. Quality, not quantity :)

Thank you for reading :)

Peace&Love,
SFgrrl99

    First day here. My current goal is 67 lbs. so I'd be an even 200 lbs! But after that I want to keep losing weight!

    Does is matter that you're a lesbian? You want to improve your health, that's why we're here. Welcome
  • Lesbian friendly!?! Really? Why do you automatically assume that people are going to discriminate against you? This is a weight loss and fitness forum,why would anyone even care about your gayness, anyways? Why even mention it?

    You obviously haven't seen the pure hatred towards gays and lesbians that has appeared on this forum. It was a big thing a while back. Very vile things.
  • Judging by your profile, we have a lot of similar interests! :-)

    Because people do care, quite often, unfortunately. Because for many people, their sexuality is a huge part of their identity. Because sometimes it's easier to talk to other people who share the big things in common with you.

    There's a GLBTQI group on here; I'm in it. Nice to meet you; sent you a friend request. <3

    Yeah, being gay is hard, but you should see the looks/disgustedness that I get when I say I was born female, but live as male now. OMIGOD, it's like I tell people the world is ending. [It also makes it awkward for me to tell a man he's handsome, even though I'm pansexual. They see the male on my profile, and FLIP OUT!!]

    WAAAAHH!:sad:
    I see tons of hateful **** on these forums directed at every possible lifestyle, personality, gender, and size! I'm a low carber, myself and I can promise you that NO ONE is hated on here more than low carbers! Is MFP low carb friendly?????????

    OP, I'm not a lesbian, and looking at your profile we don't seem to have the same goals, but I welcome you to the site all the same. :) The forums are a great place, but there is of course some measure of drama -- it is the interwebz, after all. But you'll find good support and great information here. Good luck on your journey. :)
