Hello! I have just been using MFP for less than one week. I only recently decided that it was time to take control of my body. For many years I was in denial as to how big I was gettting. My first week has gone well so far. I am looking for some weight-loss friends to help me stick to it. I tend to get gung-ho about things then fizzle out. I'm 38 and been married 18 years with two teens and I really want to stick to my plan.

Thanks!

    Hi I am Kassy and well I am looking to lose 90 lbs. I have lost 130lbs before... and yes it came back. Add me if you like. I am working on better food choices, portion control and the hardest thing for me... exercise. I am also 38 with 2 teenage sons. I have been using MFP for 8 days now.

    You Will Do Fabulous!! I sent you a friend request. I am a great motivation :) Been using MFP for 4months and have lost about 10-12 lbs. Remember there will always be ups & downs and dont give up if you gain a little back, it will eventually come back of and trust me its def worth it :)

    Hey girl! Congrats on the step towards a better lifestyle! MFP has been working for me and the support is great! Feel free to add me and we can do this together!
  • I will join you as an encouraging buddy too. I have lost 35 pounds using this app but have 100 pounds to go before I reach my goal. I wasn't in denial about how big I had gotten but wanted a quick fix that never worked. I would always gain the weight back and more! I finally decided that it was time I make a lifestyle change and learn how to eat. i count my calories using MFP and do better when I balance my meals with the calorie counter. We can and will do this together.

    I also have 100+ to lose. I also have tried numerous times and failed because I was also looking for shortcuts. This time I finally decided to take my time and do it right. As you can see, I'm 40 lbs down from where I started and loving every minute of it. I was in denial and unhappy with who I was. This confused me because I see many obese people who are happy in their lives and I finally figured it out: I am not happy because who I am on the inside doesn't match who I am on the outside, so I am going to change it to make them match. Good luck to you and I believe we can all do this! MFP is such a great resource by bringing us all together and I think that is one key in making it work. Good luck everyone!

    I have well over 100 lbs to lose, and would love some motivated friends!!

    I am also only about a week back on track (my profile explains that I did this last year, lost some weight, gained 1/2 of it back) and am determined that this is the last time.

    Feel free to send me friend requests!!!

    I started out this year with a goal of losing 179 lbs, I've lost about 84 of those thus far. So I'm at about 95 lbs left to lose, probably a few more when I see what I look and feel like at that weight. I'm only 18, almost 19, but feel free to add me. :smile:
