Maybe he's just looking for a "safe" friend. Someone he can feel comfortable with and not feel the pressure of sharing his struggles of his weight with a girl considered more of a peer. You could always accept and see if it seems ok and if it seems weird you could delete him.

zig-zagging calories is AWESOME! It usually gets me out of a plateau every time!! :smile:

Beautiful transformation!! You were beautiful before but look how stunning you are now!! Congrats on all your hard work!!

AWESOME!! Look at you go!! :happy: You're looking great!! Can't wait until I'm as fit as you!!

Love it!! :happy:

I also have a HRM with a chest strap. Both are very useful.

I just barely got one and love it so far. I like seeing my sleep patterns because I am always tired so I wanted to understand that better. Plus I love how it links with MFP. It's also fun because you can earn fun badges. I know it's weird but seeing how many stairs you've climbed is kind of fun. My first day the my page…

A few weeks ago my daughter was coming home from New York and we were late getting to the airport (the weather was pouring down rain that day and then her flight was ahead of her regular scheduled time) and didn't want to miss greeting her at the bottom of the escalator. We hadn't seen her in over a year. I was with two of…

You look beautiful!! Congrats on the weight loss!!

A mustard yellow Pinto!!A 1970 something, can't remember for sure. My grandpa bought it for $25 and fixed it up for me. I miss that old car. I used to have to park it on a slight incline most of the time so I could get it rolling and pop the clutch! My friends and brother knew the drill and many times had to push it if…

Too funny!! :happy: :laugh: :happy:

Anyone here who would like to add me I would be happy to be friends with. I also don't know if I actually have PMDD but it's definitely something. I also went off my anti depressant medications last summer then started here on MFP last September. Ido feel better since I've started watching my diet and exercising but that…

-I would definitely get a HRM to be sure and know how many calories you are burning. -drink LOTS of water, at least your eight glasses, more if possible -maybe take a week off from exercise and try just eating the calories you need to eat, see if you lose without exercise and then you'll know at what calorie level you lose…

Sounds like you got a pretty decent workout. I'm close to the same weight at you but I'm 44 so my numbers are very similar to you. I use my HRM to get an average heart rate for my workout. Then I take that number and go to shapesense.com and use their heart rate calorie burner calculator. I went and entered your info and…

I've done the "above" pose but only because it hides a double chin :laugh: I guess I'm a "dumb girl" THANK HEAVENS I've NEVER done the "duck face" :noway:

You've done a great job!! And your little guy is adorable!! :happy:

^^This Thank you for sharing this story. I've been heavy most of my adult life. During those times when I've lost some of the weight I can definitely tell a difference in the way people treat me. I think that's one of the hardest parts of being overweight is how people perceive you. Who they think you are before they even…

Just joined this LDS MFP fgroup. My husband that travels a lot for his job, I have 4 daughters- 1st daughter, 22yrs. and serving an LDS Mission in the NY, NY North Mission, she returns on April 12th. 2nd daughter, 21yrs. attending the U of U as a theatre major. 3rd daughter, 18yrs. graduated HS in 2011 and is now studying…

How fun! Super cute and creative idea!! :happy:

Truly an inspiration!! You look great!! It's amazing how when people start eating better and drinking more water (I'm assuming you've been doing that) how great their skin looks. You are glowing with success!! :happy:

Great job!! When I finally get down to my goal I'm going to post tons of pictures!! You have reason to be proud!! :happy:

You've done an amazing job and look great!! I've been feeling a bit discouraged recently since I haven't seen much progress recently and not feeling the desire to try very hard. Your success has given me the spark to keep going. Thanks!! :happy:
