Would love (and could use) some MFPs to add as friends and kick my butt when needed

This is my third go round on MFP but I'm more determined than ever. I'm 48 and a single mom of 4, busy with the kids and life in general. Every time in the past when I dieted I would eat the low-fat snacks or limited amounts of bad food - of course I was hungry at the end of the day and binged and eventually gave up. This time it's not happening - I pack my lunch everyday and include as many colors (no dyes) as possible in my food including pistachios, string cheese, salads, yogurt. I've lost 11lbs since 9/11 but have about 100 more to go. I'm very motivated now but could always use some cheering on or suggestions. Please post on here and I'll add you as a friend if you'd like. Thanks!

    Feel free to add me as well. I'm back for another round as well. I had to start a new account and could use some motivation and a good butt kicking from time to time too!

    Feel free to add me... I had 100lbs to lose, I have managed to lose 70 of it (although I had a huge gain over this past week so now it shows I have lost 65lbs) over the past 8 months. I still have a ways to go til maintenance and may end up lowering my original goal weight (have done that 3 times already, the closer I get to the goal the more I want to lose lol) who knows where I'll end up :p I log daily and my diary is open to friends. Feel free to add me.
