I'm new...

and basically friendless .  I'm not sure how to add friends, really.  Here's the rundown.

My name is Melody; I'm from Kansas (clever screen name, huh?).  I'm 27, a college instructor, and need to lose more than 100lbs.  I'm tired of being the fat friend in my group and decided to take action.  I love to journal and read others' journals and am looking for people who'd like to read about my life, offer comments,  advice, encouragement and receive the same from me. 

Wanna be my friend?  You'll have to add me because I have no idea how that works.  And even if you add me (which some very nice person tried to do), don't I have to do something?  Gosh, I feel a little slow.  I guess I need two things then: friends and someone to show me how to add friends.  Wow, that's lame.

Thanks in advance. 

Welcome to CC! :D

Hmm, I think friending is basically done through profiles. I could be wrong though. It has been a bit since I've added a friend. But I'm just about to add you :) I'm usually pretty good at commenting regularly.

Welcome to CC Melody! 

Adding friends is very easy.  Just click on the screen name of the person you want to add and it will take you to their profile page.  When you get there look to the right and you will see an option to add them as a buddy.

I have been using CC for several months and have been successful at losing some weight.  I have added you as a friend.  Let me know if you have any other questions or would just like to chat.

Hi Melody!  We seem to be pretty similar so I added you as a friend. :-)
