in Introduce Yourself
I have been on here for 6 months, I have had pretty good slow and steady progress. As of now it's like winter for most people because I live in the desert and it's pushing 111-117 degrees every day so basically I am in hiding until end of September. So being active is limited. I am on the search for more and new friends. Half of mine have given up and have not logged in for months. I really love to support all my friends who support me. I am looking for friends( mostly females) with the same goals 30lbs-100lbs lost and around the same age, but will be friends with almost everyone, as long as they are supportive. I love this app a little more with lots of friends and support, it truly does help.

Add me If you would like some support and like to support me. =)

    I have been on here since March and haven't missed a day yet! I love having lots of friends on here. I love to offer encouragement and support. Feel free to add me if you would like. I started with a goal to lose about 40 lbs. So far I have lost 24 lbs. changing my eating habits and finding the right exercise program. Best wishes!

    I'm pretty active. I'm not leaving until I shed off all of this fat. I just started a regimen to be more active and lose this weight. I'm new to the whole "dieting" and "working out" thing. Add me if you like. I tend to comment a lot, but if you don't mind that, we'll get a long just fine.

    Hi! I'm Sofie. I am trying to find friends on here that will keep me motivated and on track. I want to lose about 20 lbs and I've been using MyFitnessPal on and off for about four months. Let's be friends ;)

    Thanks ladies, I added both of you. I think the more friends the better you do. I was doing so great in the beginning but then started going off track, haven't lost much in the past month. So I think more friends will help, seeing what others are doing that I am may be doing wrong. I may miss a day here there but I am in this for the long run as well, I have about 80lbs to go and plan to stay on here until it's gone. =)

    Hi...I'm Cindy. I'm new to this whole losing weight thing. I had my baby 2 1/2 years ago and have been putting on weight instead of losing it. I am looking to lose 60 lbs. I have tried dieting since i had her but I give up within the first few days. I'm looking for friends who are on the same mission. Add me if you'd like.

    Hi! I'm Kim, I'm 23 and I'm looking to lose 30-40 lbs... I started myfitnesspal with a group of friends but slowly one by one, they seem to be neglecting their accounts. It's so much easier to do this when you have others to look at for encouragement. Right now I log in and It's just me and my sister! Feel free to add me if you like because I know it helps with more!

    Hello ladies, I am so happy you all read this and hope we can all become friends and support each other. I feel that this APP is unique do to the fact you can make friends and help each other, so those who want to keep forward can help each other, and those who want to give up well their on there own.

    I'm Jason. 26. I'm 6'6" and I used to be 220 in college, when I played collegiate tennis. Now that I have been out for five years, I have put on 50 lbs (10 lbs on average a year). I was 270, and dropped about 10 lbs before I got on MFP. I am doing a 30 day transformation with exercise, to which I am exercising everyday for 30 minutes for 30 days. Once the 30 days is over, I am cutting back to every other day, because I am a teacher, and seven days a week would be too much. I am also eating a lot healthier, which has been nice, and that is something that I do not want to stop doing period! I really just want to get a kick-start, and get back into a reasonable conditioning mode. I am down 10 out of 50, and I am really trying my best to get down to at least 230. I am reading these stories, and I feel motivated to continue!

    I've used MFP on and off but want to commit myself and i find this keeps me accountable, I've stuck on for a week in the past here and there but not this time..

    I have a goal to lose 40 pounds and I backtracked while I was on vacation. I am back to working hard and I am very motivated. I live in very mild weather year round and I love it. I used to live in Idaho and I have been in the over 100 degree weather. I noticed it never seemed to matter when it got over 102 degrees, it all felt just as hot and miserable. Hope you find ways to beat the heat!

    I'm going on my 4th week of MFP and have logged in everyday. I'm 5'3 looking to lose 25-40 pounds. We have similar goals, feel free to add me, that includes anyone else in this board :) I love encouraging people to keep them working toward their goals as they help me move forward with mine.
