Hi Ladies

I've just joined mfp - today is my second day here, so I'm still feeling fully motivated and ready to do this!! Yesterday I just used the phone app to log my intake, and today I've found the community section, which I'm hoping will give me the motivational boost I need when I start reaching for the biscuits, cakes, chocolate, and wine....

I've joined this group as I know that I stand a better chance of suceeding if there are others to help me along, and also if I can help others too by sharing thoughts, ideas, motivation, inspiration, energy, and the odd recipie or tip :happy:

I hope you ladies don't mind that I'm not actually 40 yet..... I have just under 2 weeks left in my 30's, and while I'll be sad to say goodbye to that decade of my life, I'm looking forward to the next stage - and hoping that soon I'll look even better and younger than I do now!!

CB xx

    Welcome to the Fabulous 40 club!!!! I am right there with you reaching for the cookies, cakes, chocolate, donuts, and wine. I have such a sweet tooth. I have been on this site since January and I am loving it. It has been a source of motivation, inspiration and encouragement when I really did not think I would ever lose a pound or be able to get into my workout clothes and go for a run. I so believe that you can achieve your goals. It will take time and preserverance but you are going to make it. Happy Birthday!!! Enjoy it!!! Wishing you the best on your journey. Feel free to add me. Becca

    You go girl! I have been healthier in my 40s than I ever was at ANY OTHER DECADE, including being a kid. THAT is why we're fabulous, ha. Best wishes on your healthier journey - MFP is a great place to be. I'm a reacher for all foods junk, too, but logging them in really slowed down my reach, and made the handfuls smaller! :)
