Hi! I did MFP once before, but only briefly and didn't participate in message boards or anything. This time I'm taking it more seriously. Hey, isn't starting on the day after Halloween when I could be eating all the "fun size" candy in the house prove I'm serious? I want to lose 20 pounds and have my pants fit again. That's do-able here, right?... even for someone in their "mid" 40s?

    quite doable...and welcome aboard. feel free to do the activity in my will power blog below to help you with the mental part of the journey. as you know from personal experience, the will power comes and goes. its important to take steps to help get back on track when the will power begins to wane. that's what my blog is about.

    Age ain't nothing but a number. I'm on the same tip as you. I need to lose 22lbs to fit back into my jeans and 30lbs to be where I want to be. Happy shedding!
