Hi everyone,

I'm about to turn 40 years old, am a happily married mom of 2, and have been overweight my entire life. I have lost weight and gained it back more times than I can count. I am at a point in my life where I have not been able to stick to any diet at all for the last year or longer. I heard about this site from the recent Today show appearance of one of the members. I am going to give it a try and hope that the tools here will help me change my eating habits to achieve a healthy lifestyle.

Thanks for reading.

    Hi and Welcome! You have come to the right place! Everyone here is so supportive and encouraging! I saw the MFP member on the today show too, and that is what brought me to MFP too! So far so good. Your story is very similar to me too. Gained and lost weight all my life, weight issue ALL my life. I will be 50 soon and really need and want to be healthy! Feel free to add me as a friend, and the best of luck to you!!!
