    Sounds good to me! I'm new to MFP, also. Trying to lose a few pounds that have crept on lately.
    Height: 5'6", age: 50

    Current weight: 155
    Goal weight: 145
    Goal for end of may: 151.... lose about 1 pound a week would be GREAT!!!

    Weight 5/1: 155 pounds
    5/8:
    5/15:
    5/22:
    5/28:

    Looking forward to having some social support with this. I have ALWAYS had great willpower, but the older I get the more I tell myself..... "Life is Short... Eat dessert!"

    Just for fun: No events right now really. But I am going to try to walk 5 days a week for the first two weeks and then progress onto jogging for part of my daily walks for the last two weeks of May! Right now I hardly have any stamina and become winded easily. It will be challenging to do it but I'm going to try!
