    Hi there, I'm 45 with three kids 18, 15 and 14. This is a great place to come for support, guidance, and accountability. Come on in :smile: Please feel free to add me.
  • I have just joined mfp and I have gained and lost a # of times and with each pregnancy. My youngest is 3 yrs old and I cannot seem to get in a good routine and I am not used to tracking what I eat but I obviously need to ... I have a lot to loose (currently 250) and I need some friends too for motivation... :) Penny :smile:

    Good morning all my new MFP friends! I'm so happy to meet you and feeling awfully loved and motivated this morning! I hope you all have a fantastic day. I plan to catch up with my old friend Jillian Michaels this afternoon for some more inspiration and much-needed butt-kicking!

    Please feel free to add me. I need support from people like you who share the same issues - kids, husband, life, and 40's - LOL. I am also hypothyroid due to Hashimoto's disease. That adds another element to my struggle. Good luck to you!!!

    Hi, I started mfp 2 wks ago. I start out my day with a brisk walk for one hour at our University, gets me to almost 6,000 steps. By the end of the day I usually have walked 12,000. I lost 30 lbs. and kept it off for a year and 1/2. Gained 10 back. My goal is to lose the 10 gained plus 10 more. So far I have lost 5 lbs. I drink a bottle of water before my meals which makes me less hungry. No problem eating smaller portions at meals, my biggest problem is sweets. Any advice/input would be much appreciated.
