Wanted: Lots of new Friends

I'm new to the site. Looking for friends to take this journey with. My name is Kelly, I live in the Bay Area,Ca. I need to lose 40 lbs. Starting today.

 

Welcome!  I just added you to my friends list.  It takes an army for sure, but you've come to the right place!  These forums are filled with really helpful and supportive people that have the same goal as you! 

Hi there!  I also added you to my friends list.  I'm new here too, although I've been counting calories for a few weeks now.  7 lbs down only 77 more to go... 

I added you I am also new to this site I just started watching my calories 4 day's ago. I have 70lbs to loose and also live on the west coast (seattle area)

Welcome! I am looking to lose around 40 as well. Adding you as a friend =)

Thank you new friends... Lets do this thing! I am so ready.  really good to meet you!

 

Hi!

Welcome to the site! Lots of luck to you!

 

PS. Hows the weather out there in sunny CA.

hi, i'm also new to the site. good luck with the 40lbs. i don't know exactly how much weight i need to lose - i have a pair of jeans that when i fit them i'll be happy!

I live in the same area. I've added you to my friends list. What are your other stats if you don't mind sharing? Age, current weight etc... '

Edit:

Oh and the weather here today is great to me but others might be hating it.... rain rain rain! I actually get a little tired of the sun ALL the time.

Hey I added you.. I started 2 days ago and I wanna lose about 35lbs ..

Good Luck to all!!!

Hi Sweetcakes,

I'll add you right now as my "first friend."  LOL.  Keep coming to this site and it will help you so much, it's kind of addicting!  I don't post may notes but I do read a lot and all of these wonderful people are helping me more than they know with their stories and comments.  I have about 20 lbs to lose.  I joined this site about a week ago and have lost 3 lbs so far.  I bought a treadmill last weekend and used it a few times this week.  Last night I did 3 miles and burned 415 calories and I feel GREAT.

We're all here to help you.  Stick to it and don't give up.  WELCOME!! 

I guess I'll be adding you too :D We all need people to help us don't we?

I'll be your friend too! And let's face it, this is a pretty rockin group you stumbled across huh?

Get in, buckle your seatbelt, and enjoy the ride. If you have to stop and change tires along the way, so be it.. take those moments to stop and smell the flowers. Sometimes you will speed, stall.. but if you just keep nourishing your body with the right fuel you will make it to your destination.

Okay so seriously I don't know where that came from, but it makes a lot of sense to me :) 

I also added you to my friends list - I love this site, and it's really helped me.  I live in Bay Area also, in the East Bay.  Weight loss is definitely a journey, sometimes an easy road, sometimes not, but the good part is the one step then the next step and so on.  My motto:  "You can do it, just keep going!"

HEY!!!I will be your friend! Ha Ha!how are you planning on losing these 40 pounds...and how is your FIRST day going?!

I could always use more friends to help motivate me...been losing it lately...I added you!

welcome kelly!
howd your first day go and hows the second coming on?

Welcome!  One way to communicate with your new friends is to keep a journal, which you've done, and gotten very nice responses too!   I see you haven't filled out your profile.  Letting people know a little bit about you is another way to make friends. 

If you have any trouble finding your way around, you have only to post on the most appropriate forum. 

Good Luck!

Hi  I just started today.  I don't have lots of time to be on the computer but will try to stay current.  I have lots to lose...over 100 pounds.  I feel ready this time.

I'd love to add you as my first new friend. 

I can add you too...I don't have too many friends on here yet either, only been here maybe 2 weeks & 1/2
