    Ok so anybody like me? I'm 46 and got to get 30 lbs off. Sick and tired of being sick in tired. Have done it before but not as easy as it use to be. I'm committed to get it off before summer. I need a few buddy's for support though :D . Anyone in with me?

    I just started phentermine to drop 30-40 pounds
    It's working great
    Lost 6 in the past 3 days
    Appetite is barely there

    Is that healthy, @sxcbut? I mean, that's great, but it really isn't sustainable as you are not developing healthy habits, not to mention the nutritional deficiencies your body will experience.

    Hi. I am "new" here as I signed up for mfp a few years ago and never posted for more than a day.
    Anyways I have 25-30lbs I need to lose. After my youngest daughter was born almost five years ago I lost all the baby weight and I was 125. Then year by year Ive added 10-12 lbs and now I am up to 156. I barely recognize myself when I look in the mirror.

    Zorks. I have to agree with you on the phentermine. I tried it about 6 years ago. it is not sustainable. It also raised my blood pressure.

    I am 43 and started with MFP at the end of November with (at least) 30 lbs to lose. So far I have lost 17 1/2 pounds and counting! Would love to be on the journey with people who have similar goals and are committed to logging everyday day and sharing their diary, so please friend me if this is what you are doing or plan to do this and want to be friends:)

    Exercise is the worst when you're just starting out and everything is hard. If you can soldier through a few weeks of it though, you'll start to feel a lot better - promise :)

    I am 46 with more than 100LBS to lose. I have been heavy my whole entire life. Never really cared about it until my niece came into the world.

    I have to get healthy to keep up with her as she grows.

    I am with you...I have been tracking for weeks and lost a big five lbs. it used to be so much early...just found out that I am officially in menopause...actually, I found out last year at 47.. Now stop 48, with fibromyalgia and psoriatic arthritis, I so miss the girl who could so easily could just go God a walk, be healthy and lose weight. Love to have everyone in this group for support :)

    Best thing I ever did was buy leslie sansones walk off the pounds dvds . Slow going and you actually walk miles in your living room. A huge game changer in my journey to help myself

    I walk on the treadmill every day Sophiasmomma but it gets so boring. I even switch the routines on it but i just do it anyway cuz something is better than nothing i guess.
