Hi MFP members, I just joined 2 days ago and this is a great site. The post, the encouraging messages and the success stories are great! I'm looking forward to connecting with other members just starting out who are in a similar situation as mine. Female, age 50, looking to lose weight and improve their overall health and get active. Hope to hear from you soon.
Carolyn

    Welcome Carolyn!
    I used this site my freshman year of college and I lost 30lbs! Unfortunately, I stopped using it and gained it all back. I figured if I did it once, I can do it again and keep up with it. Feel free to add me or my mom who is also your age :flowerforyou:

    Welcome to MFP! I have lost 20 pounds using this site. Just be honest with yourself, how much are you eating and correctly log it! You can do this!

  • Hi Caroline and welcome to MFP. I've used this site for the past couple of months and as long as you are honest with yourself it is a great tool to assist weight loss. Lots of lovely people around to give support. I am female, 52 living in the south east of England. Will send you a friend request. Welcome on board. Wishing you every success.
