    Hello, everyone! My name is Anna and I am a newbie struggling to loose weight. I am 46 and have bad knees so cant do as much as I wish could. Struggling with diet-how much to eat....what are healthy options....trying to cut my sodium and it is hard. I need support as weight doesn't come off easily and if one more person tells me loosing 10 pounds is easy I may scream! Need friends and support

    Hi! I am over 40 and have lost nearly 24 lbs on MFP since I started journaling my food here in April. Have about 30 more to go. Decided it was time to get some friends so feel free to add me (I can't get MFP and my lame tablet to work together on a pic but I assure you I am a real person. ;-))

    Hi I am a newbi just started yesterday. I am 44 and need to change my life. All four of my sons are 18 or older and I am starting the empty nest in August. So its time for me. I went over today in my protein but not on anything else. Is that real bad to go over in the protein?

    Hi Denise--another over 40yo happy to join you in the journey. I've been doing this for a few months now and the progress has been slow, but I appreciate the accountability. Hoping to lose 30-40 pounds overall--will be happy with 10-15 by year's end.

    I am 41 and have lost 52 pounds in the last year. I switched from a different calorie tracking program to myfitnesspal and it is easier to track. I am turning 42 in two weeks and wanted to lose 4 - 6 more pounds by then for my birthday, but it looks like that isn't going to happen. I am trying to stay positive and have been working out 2 times a day, but I HAVE to realize that at this age, and this weight, things are going to go more slowly, but I have to keep that from sabotaging my hard work. I can't believe you have lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks, that is great!

    Protein keeps me from me from feeling hungry. I NEVER worry about going over in protein, especially if I work out - it keeps me from feeling hungry, and from losing muscle. Keep up the good work. I lost 52 pounds this last year counting my calories and working out every day. The more you work out, the quicker you lose, because you burn more, but it also can make you more hungry - that's why more protein is important.
