43 yrs and ready to loose some weight

I have been playing around with Nutrisystems, love the food but could not stay dedicated to it. I was on a rollercoaster so I thought it's time to hold my self accountable and see what I am putting in my body. Excited to make new friends and loose weight together!!

  • Hi I just found MFP today myself. I am 48 yrs old and started my weight loss journey back in March. So far I've lost just under 50 pounds, at least that's what it was the last time I was weighed - I am part of a nutrition class that meets on Tuesdays and I get weighed in then.

    I'd love to be your friend if you want to add me and maybe we can keep each other motivated. My current weight is 345, my goal weight is to be anything under 200 lbs - I've been big for so long that 200 is going to feel skinny to me.

    Anyway I can't do nutrisystem or any supplements, what I've done is totally change my lifestyle. I gave up sugar, caffeine, the vast majority of processed foods (there are some that I use occasionally like mayo or ketchup because I am not going to go make it myself). I eat a mostly plant based diet with lean meats a couple of days a week.
