I'm also new and need friends also...

I'm new to this site and like what it has to offer.....(also new to message boards as you can probably tell) I'm one that needs to loose about 70+ pounds. I'm looking for friends to help me get and stay motivated in weight loss and also exercising. Exercising I do find hard to stick with as I have arthritis in one knee and had a total knee replacement in the other.

Would appreciate you friending me and any help you can give would be appreciated....

    Hi there...Welcome! I've been using MFP for about 2 weeks now. I'm 41 and I have trouble with exercise, too. Trouble with motivation and trouble with physical pain (tendonitis in both shoulders and some herniated discs in my back.) I can't do the extreme exercises some of the people here do, I mainly walk outside or on the treadmill, but I need to start incorporating weights into my program. Wondering what kind of exercises you do with two bad knees? Bicycle?

    If you feel like adding me, that would be great. Enjoy your day and best of luck to you on your weight loss/health journey.
