in Introduce Yourself
Hi!
I've used this site for about a year, but I've only gotten serious with it this last few weeks. I really could use some MFP friends to encourage me and help me through this journey, as most people in my life don't understand how important this is to me.

I have lost 9 pounds so far, and I still have 60 to go. If you need encouragement, please add me :) We can help each other out!

~April

    Hello!
    I'd been in a rut for a looong time before I started using MFP about a month ago & once I started here & made a few new friends who gave me encouragement it definitely helped get me back in the swing of my weight loss journey. Feel free to add me as a friend! :)
    Congrats on the weight loss so far; that's awesome!

    Thanks! I'm working my butt off, and it's so worth it. The more I get into it, the more I love eating healthier and working out. I appreciate the friend invite :D

    Hi, I just started a week ago, and would love to partner up with you so we can encourage one another (and any one else interested in forming a support group). Over 100 pounds to go, but am just determined to take it "slow and easy"...blew it a couple days ago, and just determined to start over the next day~instead of giving up. You have already lost some weight...way to go girl!!! Count the positives...that is a great start.

    Think of it as your daily routine. That's what I do. If you have Facebook find group called " Be Fit & Be SEXY"

    The thing is, some people don't understand just how important losing excess weight is. It affects us physically, emotionally, socially and the temptations alone are discouraging. I had to tell my kids to turn their backs to the candy bars at checkout just to stop them from being tempted and asking me to buy them. It's so hard to stay on track, especially when those closes to you don't want to be a true support (like joining the diet program). You have got to remember that you are not doing it for others or because others. It's something just for you. We all deserve a chance at being healthy, happy and improving.

    I have no problem with the exercise. I can get to the gym 6 days a week and bust my *kitten*. The food is my problem. I just can't get control of it. I do great until the sun goes down.

    So maybe we can help each other out!
