Hello, Everyone! I'm new and would like to meet new people!

Hi Everyone!
I'm here because I hope that this is going to make a change for myself. I've tried many of diets and I've tried to maintain but ended up over-doing myself over and over again. I feel like I'm way too busy to workout but I know I can make time (with a little motivation). And I really really want this! I hope I can meet new people that will inspire me and keep me motivated! I want to lose weight for myself and my family! And I want to feel happy again and proud of myself. So feel free to keep my hopes up with all of your stories! I'd really like to read them ! Thanks for your time :)

    You can do this. There was a point in my life the only time I had to work out was 5am and I wanted it so badly that I did it! I'm sending a request now :)

    Hey there and welcome to MFP! This is an awesome site to help you stay on track and meet new people for support. I have had nothing but good experiences on here, I love it! There are so many amazing people who are kind, honest and helpful in your goals and health.

    I, like you, have tried many diets and exercise programs, but never got anywhere. A couple years ago I did p90x and followed a specific diet and got great results. I wasnt on MFP at the time, but earlier this year did the same thing for a month and lost 10 lbs. With hard work, dedication, preparation, accountability and the support from MFP, it couldnt have been easier. You can and WILL reach your goals if you really want it that bad.

    Feel free to add me as a friend, I am always here for tips, advice, support or off-topic chatting. It's always good to make new friends.

    Bry

    We are all in this together! Hang in there!
  • I wish you luck. I do not like to exercise so I only ride my stationary bike 5 min. in the AM and 5 min in the PM. I struggle with it every day but remind myself how very little time it is. By watching my calories on this site I am down 30lbs. I will send you a friend request.

    I'm also just getting started, I decided that today would be the beginning of my lifestyle change (no more diets!) I've signed up for another race and this time I want to run the whole thing :)
