I am new to MFP. I have alwayshad a couple extra pounds on me, but 2 years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I am cancer free but have gained 25 lbs because of the medication. I now have 50 lbs to lose. I turn 50 this year and want to look and feel great when I do. Dieting is hard and I'm looking for support and motivation to keep me going

    I'm 60, have lost over 90 lbs. You won the big battle, you can win this one too. Feel free to add me. I've been doing this since Oct 2013 and will most likely will be doing it indefinitely. It works!

    Congratulations on being cancer free. I am newly diagnosed and terrified that I too will put on weight. I worked hard to lose 20 lbs and so far have put back on 5 just from the stress of the diagnosis. I haven't even started the drugs yet. Would love to be friends.
