    Chassity,
    I would love to be a part of your support team during this adventure! I do not have as much weight to lose and I am much older (49). I have about 40lbs to lose and I just started my lifestyle change two weeks ago. It's really tough for me not to go out to lunch each day, then snack on chips and icecream all evening. But I am doing it and eating green things that I never thought I would eat. DON'T GIVE UP! Your right you CAN do it!

    thank you so much. Yes it's going to be so hard not to fall into the things that i normally do. I'm going to stop eating fast foods and sodas and unhealthy snacks. I know that is going to be a great start.

    Feel free to add me, I too am a bit older but have struggled with my weight all my life. I am now at the lowest I have been in 15 years by diet and exercise. I know how hard it is to stay motivated but having friends on mfp really helps. By the way you are gorgeous!

    Hi! I'm 33 and started out 3 weeks ago at 281. I'm down to 265 but I still have many more pounds to lose. I would love to be able to support you through your weight loss journey and have you do the same for me. Definitely add me if you want to.

    Hello! I'm 21, and close to being in the same boat as you (you can see my ticker). I'd love to be a supportive friend. We all need help and inspiration in this journey. Anyone else, feel free to add me too.
