    Hi Sorry I'm new at adding friends and posting in forums. I hope I am doing it all right. I find it so important for people to encourage and support each other in their goals. I'm so glad I found this group. Thank you for adding me.

    I am finding that having a good mix of male a female friends to support me is good. Each seems to offer a very different approach, attitude, encouragement and energy level to the whole support system.

    Happy Wednesday everyone! Kelbels, it's funny you would post that quote from M. Jordan. It's his birthday today. And it's mine! Proudly 41. I'm not perfect and that's fine. Every day should be about improving without feeling *kitten* for too long when we stumble. Love you guys!

    I'm 46, signed on January 3 intending to lose 100+ pounds. Have lost almost 13 thus far.

    My only exercise is walking - various distances. Have done as little as 1.5 miles and as much as 7 miles in a single walk. Plan to get up to 10 miles in a single walk come springtime, and continue doing at least one super-long walk a week with 3-4 5K walks throughout the remainder.

    Hi, I'm looking to make new friend on here. I'm 45 and have had a few failed attempts at losing weight. Started lifting about 6 months ago and my measurements are changing even if the scale number isn't. Now I have my gym habit on track looking to cut so I can lose some of the extra fat I'm carrying around. Friend me here or on Fitocracy where I log my workouts.

    46 here...almost 47...that's hard to say. Been on mfp for about a month now and closely logging my foods and running/walking/moving each day. The biggest thing for me is being accurate in logging. Buy a food scale and weigh everything, then double check the nutrient label until it becomes a habit.
    I'm down 22lbs since the first of the year, about 11 until my first goal.
    If I can do it anyone can. Watch your CICO and get moving.

    YOU CAN DO THIS!

    I've been working my way back into the routine. Would love to find be added for more support and motivation. Get me back to being accountable again. I had originally lost 140 pounds with 20 left to reach my goal but life got a little overwhelming and thrown upside down AND I gained a little bit back. I am looking to lose what I gained plus finish what I started for a total of 60 to go... Time for me now that my life is put back in order again. Please feel free to add me! Thank you!! We CAN all do this!!!

    45, I don't think I've lost my edge, I don't intend to lose my edge, and that will only be possible by continuing to work my a** off staying in shape!

    Hi all. Would love to join. 51 and I hope this is my last roller coaster ride. Once these last pounds are off, they're staying off (she says sorta confidently...) :)

    Hi! I am 47 and have been on MFP for 2 months and have lost 30 pounds. Dr has me on phentermine which has helped a lot with my appetite. I started out at 448 and trying to stay motivated is so tough as I have so far to go. Right now it's all about feeling better!
