    Hi, I just saw this thread. I'm also looking for friends. Been doing MFP for a few months now and had some friend attrition so could use a few more! I have had the best connections with "twin" friends who are similar in age, fitness interests and weightloss needs. I am 42, mom to 2 girls (8 and 10), love running, spinning, hiking, stand-up paddleboarding and exercise in general. I have lost 13 lbs and am looking to lose 22 more (goal weight 134). I am on here every weekday and try to check in on the weekends too. Please feel free to friend me if you think we'd be a good fit to motivate each other!

    Feel free to add me! I'm 41 (42 in Nov - which I can't believe). I'm married with a soon to be 3 year-old daughter. I want to say she keeps me young, but lately, she's mostly kept me exhausted! Why did I wait so long to have kids?!?!?!? :)

    I'm slowly getting back into exercise. I used to exercise a lot -- running, biking, swimming. Played tennis in high school and college, so I'm trying to work that back in. I have been very sedentary the past 3 years, but am determined to get in shape to be a role model for my daughter and also to keep up with her.

    Let's motivate each other and shed these pounds once and for all!

    I'm 43 with 2 daughters (16 & 9 year old) and a desk job. I've been using MFP for several months but new to groups. I've maintained a 30 lb. loss, but can't seem to lose any more. I could really use the motivation and support. Please feel free to add me.

    Hi, happy if you add me too!

    I'm Nicki, I'm 43 and have kind of started everything later in life, including to finally committing to losing weight and feeling truly good about myself.

    I'm a wife to a wonderful husband and mum of 2 firecrackers under 5. I live in Central Queensland and I have my own business. I am loving what life has to offer. I've found a new passion in the gym and thoroughly enjoy spin, combat and pump classes.

    I joined MFP four days ago and am loving the site and what it has to offer!

    This committment begun when a trip to Fiji was planned. We've now got 5 weeks before we fly out. I've come from a size 22-24 and am currently an 18. I'm feeling a little better about going out in a swimsuit.

    You can add me too. I'm 43 years old, a teacher, and a mom of 3 (17, 14, and 4). I run and do lots of Jillian Michaels DVDs. My whole health kick really started when I turned 40. I realized that without some changes I was going to continue to add 5 lbs. a year. Walking the dog was not enough exercise!

    I lost 16 lbs. in the last year and a half, and I joined MFP a few weeks ago for help with getting rid of this last 8. Grrrrrr.

    Feel free to add me as a friend. I'm fairly new to MFP, 46 yrs old, mother of an 11 yr old girl and 8 yr old boy. My 30th high school reunion is in May 2013 and I'd like to be in "single digit" sizes by then. I figure I've got about 40 pounds to lose to get there.
