Hi, Janica! I am 23 and also looking to lose 90-100lbs. I am more excited, motivated, and serious about logging in daily and tracking meals when I have a support system of friends so I will def add you, and we can help each other out!

Hi Lindsy! I am in a very similar situation, with about 100lbs to lose. I put on something like 70lbs during the course of my undergrad, and when I rolled straight in to a desk job I figured I had to make some changes pronto or it was just going to get worse! I love MFP, and have found that having friends on here has been…

I am going to send you a friend request! I am in a very similar situation, and having friends on MFP has been a great way to stay accountable.

I carry a large nalgene with me everywhere. It's like an extension of my arm at this point, and if I forget it I will actually miss it the entire time. I also read somewhere once that your body confuses hunger and thirst all the time. No idea of the validity of this, but I spun it to help me and now will have about a glass…

Welcome! I'll add ya!

I worked with a guy once at my university who was morbidly obese, and would come in to work every single day with Big Gulps of Mountain Dew, burritos and stuff from the case at 7-Eleven, etc., etc. Smoked regularly to boot. We worked on the second floor of a small building, that had no elevator and he had trouble making it…

I lurk around in the shadows on this thread, and I figure I'd better come out and be friendly! So hi again, everyone :) @wishfuljune Crock pot apple butter... I am going to steal that and make some of my own. My partner got me a new crock pot a couple of weeks ago because I was using this old one with like two settings and…

Hi Laura! I'm on a very similar journey. I'm 5'3", 240-some pounds, and have a goal of losing over 100 lbs. I am trying to reach out and add friends here on MFP, because I like feeling held accountable. I'd be happy to add you, and help support your journey!

This seems like a really great crowd! Would love to join in! My name is Lizz, I am a project coordinator in Seattle. I sit at a desk A LOT, and am coming to terms with my really poor relationship with food. Ideally, I would like to lose 100+ lbs, but more importantly, I just want to feel like I have some control on my diet…

Welcome and good luck to you both!

And by the way, your dog is gorgeous. I have a dog son, Patton. He also has some lbs to lose, so we have been helping each other along :smiley:

Welcome back! This is also my third time (at least) jumping back in to the swing of things on MFP, and I also had a rough couple of days, but I am about a week in now and things are already leveling out. You got this!

Hi Victoria! I also was able to lose 50lbs, and then put all of it (and then some) back on. It was not a good feeling, but I use it now as a means to motivate myself. I did it once, I can do it again. Good luck on your restart, and I know you will do great things! Will add you :)

Hi all! I am a little late to this party, but I am 22, 5'3" and looking to lose 100+ lbs! I have been using MFP for a few weeks and have been going it alone. I would love to make some friends with similar goals, and have a support group :) I am going to send some friend requests, I hope that is okay with everyone!
