Hi, I am 53 and have been working at loosing weight since February. So far I have lost 65 lbs and still want to lose at least 65 more. I have been doing a low fat low carb diet, about 2 weeks ago I started following Paleo. (no refined carbs). I would love to form some weight loss buddies. I am married, have two daughters. I do not work, I was a military wife for 26 years. With all our moving it was too hard to maintain a career. I volunteered almost full time to keep busy. Now we are retired, (from the Army). We own our first home. I have two Corgis, LT and GiGi. :happy:

    Add me as a friend if you like. I don't follow any diet in particular, but try to stay within my calorie and sodium levels. I'm on the slow and steady plan and eat mostly homemade foods. I started in February and have lost 30+ lb. Logging and communicating with friends on MFP has been so, so helpful.

    Feel to as well. I've been 'on track' since September 2011 and have lost 60 lbs thus far (with more to go). MFP is a great place to make new acquaintances with similar interests :). The encouragement you receive from others is amazing!!
