Trying not to do this on my own

Hello,
I have been slowly putting on the punds over the last few months. I've always been rotund, and I have been bigger than I am right now. I went to my GP on monday for my normal prescriptions and mentioned that I am so, so tired all the time. I had bloods done just after Christmas and everything was fine, so he thinks I could need to move more- I am pretty sedentary. So he gave me a "Prescription for Health" which is basically reduced rate membership at a local gym. I start next week. I've also been trying to be more mindful of what I eat. I have fairly severe mental health issues and tend to comfort eat when things are bad.
So yeah, I don't want to do this on my own. I think I need people to help motivate me a bit.
Love
Moosifer

Hi Moosifer! Please feel free to add me to your 'circle'. I might recommend a book for you it's called Made to Crave. I am currently reading it and I have found that it's really helping me with my emotional eating. It is a Christian book so if you aren't a Christian I apologize. However, even if you aren't, you may want to read it. It's not a techinical manual about eat this, don't eat that, do this exercise. It's more about evaluating why certain emotions trigger eating and how to combat them.
I'm with ya sister!!

Well, you came to the right group! Please feel free to add me if you would like - I am not judgmental - I will support you or anyone the best that I can - the only thing that I ask of anyone is to be honest with what they are doing.
Enjoy MFP - most people are great to work with!!!0 -
Feel free to add me as well. I try to be a really supportive friend. You can do this!!! Congrats on stating your journey!0

love that prescription for health....that is awesome...wish more places did that, maybe obesity wouldn't be as much of a problem. Well anyway....you are definitely in the right place....there is plenty of support here and tools that will get you on your way! I have only been here 4 months and have already lost 43 lbs! Feel free to add me if you wish....you can never have too many friends when it comes to losing weight.0

Hi Moosifer,
You are definitely not doing this on your own! I, too am struggling with losing weight. My GP prescribed wellbutrin sr to help with my mood, cravings and/or binge eating. It is working well for me so far. I still lack energy to work-out though. Feel free to add me, if you want! I also could use some motivation!0 -
You can add me too. Have a great day.0
-
I am always open for more motivation!! I will do by best in return!!0

I'd love to have some motivation from others myself! Please add me to your circle and we can start losing weight together. I'd like to lose 100 lbs if possible and start training for a sprint triathalon to give myself an end-goal. Everybody needs some buddies to cheer them on. Thanks!0

That is the story of my life! Started with a personal trainer 2 weeks ago because my GP said I need to be held accountable. I have lost 5 pounds in the two weeks. Feel free to add me. I could use some friends too!0
-
Please add me as well! I just started this last week and need help with motivation like many of the members. I'd love to hear about your journey.0

Sending a request! We all need friends0

you can do it! whatever you set your mind to, it can be accomplished i love mfp, have only been on here for a few mo's or less but it's def helped me keep myself more accountable and lose another 5lbs and countless inches. i'm on here frequently and have sent you a friend request. i'm on here for support as well so i'm here for ya0

You can add me as a friend too I've only been on Myfitnesspal for about 6 mo., but I've been working on losing weight consistently for a little over a year. Over all I've lost 37 lbs and 8 pants sizes. I've done so good using this site and using Beach Body's site (since I'm using their workouts) that I've become a coach. I'd love to help any way I can and not to sell you anything. I became a coach to help others, to Pay it Forward, since someone else who is a coach did that for me.0

I added you! You can do it.. I'm pretty sedentary myself... corporate office, job in a cublcle... bla bla bla. lol.
I try to workout when I can "sneak away" from the kids...
Side Note - Plese don't take this seriously people but why does most people reply and say, "Add me". We all need motivation. Add the lady already.... don't wait!! Lol.0 -

I am sending a food request.
