I love reading the posts from everyone here, and I already have two really nice, enthusiastic "friends". I'd also love to add some friends to my list who are in the same stage as me from a body (age-wise, not necessaily weight-wise) and lifestyle perspective.

I'm 42, married, have two kids in elementary school and I have my own graphic design business that I run from home. I just joined here less than a week ago and haven't weighed in yet. Waiting until Saturday when I've been tracking for a week. Also, I just joined the April 30 Day Shred challenge!

Let me know if you want to be friends! (gosh - that sounds despereate! I wish middle school had been this easy!)

    40 with a 5 year old daughter and a 1 year old son (surprise!). Wanting to get back to my pre-pregnancy weight before my daughter, or more like when I first got married. I have lost 5 pounds now which puts me at my prepregnancy weight with my son (well kinda--I gained some weight, and couldn't figure out why I was starving and why I couldn't get under 140 lbs--I was 3 months pregnant!) I want to lose 15 more pounds before I turn 41 this summer---that's my goal!

    I'm 46 with a 3 year old daughter, so I know exactly how you feel. I have 70 more pounds to lose and know I can from the help and support that I've been getting on here.
