Hi all,
My name is Connie and I look forward to meeting new friends on my fitness pal. I am 47 years old, work full-time and the mom of one 11 year old daughter. Trying to find my own program to lose 30-40 pounds. I've been doing this so long that I know what I need to do, it's just the DOING that snags me up!

    Welcome & good luck!
    I think the best part of MFP is having to account for everything I eat all in one place...it really helps me stay on track.
    I also have a teenage daughter & like that I am setting a good example for her. Feel free to add me as a friend, cause we can all use them :-)
