    I hope someone knows how to "add" all these people to a group! lots of us. I am new at this and have never posted on the boards.

    I am 42 and started a few months ago. Goal was to drop about 10 pounds and, most importantly, firm up... gain muscle and lose flab. I have lost about 3 or 4 pounds so far.

    Hello everyone I am 44 and from the UK. I have been using MFP for a while now but never really looked into the 'community' pages before until a few days ago, but it is always good to have support when embarking on this journey of weight lose.

    I gave up smoking 7 weeks ago and have found that my extra weight has now got extra weight, so I need to nip it in the bud before it gets out of control

    I have about 35 lb's to lose and look forward to getting as much help from others as I can give them :smile:

    And yes I would like to be in.

    I'd love to be included!

    Losing after 40 is HARD... much harder than when I was younger anyway.

    Just when I think Im on a roll I fall flat on my face...

    Im down 35 with another 30 to go.

    Hi All!

    I'm not sure we need to do anything other than start to write. If you go to community and look under "My Topics" you will find the group since you have already posted. Now we just get to know each other. Looks like there is a lot of interest. I hope everyone's day is going well.

    I am 48 and just joined last week, still working my way around the site. I have been stuck with my weight loss for a few months and would like to get back on track, and am hoping joining this site will help, educate and motivate me.

    Hi! I'm 47 and trying to drop the 25 pounds I've put on since May of 2012. I fell in love and he like to EAT! And he eats LATE! So... trying to get it together, set a couple of boundaries and get back into feeling healthy! Plus - I believe my poor feet will thank me!
