Looking for Friends with 50+ to Lose

in Introduce Yourself
Hi, my name is Nicole and my goal is to have a healthy BMI, which means I have an additional 70 pounds to lose. I have tried to lose weight over the years without help (there's something embarrassing about telling your friends that you're losing weight and then NOT losing weight) and it just isn't working anymore.

If you need a friend to talk to, share recipes with and motivate you day-to-day then look no further! Hopefully we can hold each other accountable through this journey.

Thanks!

    I'm 24 and needing to lose about 100. I know how it feels when you say that you are doing something to lose weight and people keep asking how the "diet" is going and you haven't stuck to it and are ashamed to admit it, so you just say "fine." Feel free to add me! We can support each other!

    Hi, I have 50 or more pounds to lose. I weighed a healthy 139 pounds eight years ago, since then I moved in with my husband and just started ballooning. I need to learn how to eat well again and I have high blood pressure so it isn't an option. I also need to get motivated to exercise and drink more water.

    I'd say I have at least 50 to lose, probably closer to 60 or 70. I'm also ready to not just loose the weight, but keep it off by changing my lifestyle! Feel free to add me. :)

    My goal is to lose 58 lbs total so feel free to add me :). I also want to be in the "healthy" BMI range which is actually quite a low weight for me since I'm only 5'0. I would love to provide support along your journey!

    Hey there! I completely understand how you feel! I started off at 239-for the second time in my life :( But using MFP and being resolved to stick with getting healthy (as opposed to "going on a diet") I'm down to 210...I still have about 55 pounds to go, but I know I will get there-and I KNOW you're going to get where you want to be!

    Feel free to friend me-we can ALL use encouragement on this journey!

    Over 50 to go here. It's a steep mountain to climb but we can do it! (BTW the dietician I spoke to said not to be too hung up on the BMI thing because technically a bodybuilder with huge muscles would be classified as obese on that)

    HI My name is Stacy. I have more then 90 lbs to lose. I started this weight loss plan last summer and unfortunately I did not stick with it. I wound up weighing more then when I started leaving me even more determined this time around. I have no friends here on MFP and I think that maybe having a few might increase the chance of success. I have lost 5 pounds in the past 2 weeks! Would love to keep the forward momentum going. Feel free to friend me! :-)

    Hi my name Michele and I am hoping to loose 50 before February. I was at the gym today and one of my work out partners told me about this app. It says to add friends so I figure I would start in this forum!

    Count me in, we have about the same to lose. It's always easier to talk with somebody who Understands your journey. As you can see I joined MFP in jan 2011.... That is when my husband and I started he lost 40 lbs and has kept it off. I on the other hand have yo-yo'd about 15 lbs worth. This week on Monday I had enough and started to track on MFP again. I plan on making this work, joined a gym since it too hot to workout outside.and have decided to take it daily.

    Friend me if you would like ( anyone else as well too)
