    Hey! I also recently joined MFP via my nutritionist, who recommended me this site (and app).

    I'm 52 and weigh now 231.5 pounds as of yesterday. Been overweight all my life but it's time I really do something about it, for good!

    I'm very excited and motivated. Lost 4,5 pounds in 4 days, but in the beginning, it's just nornal I think. I still have a long way to go, but it's a good start!

    I agree with you, motivation from friends is VERY important, and I think this site will also help.

    Feel free to add me and we can help motive each other if you'd like! :)

    I've been on for about a month. I love food and exercise journaling. It really helps. I'm going to send you a friend request.

    Hi, I am 51 and weigh 232.6 lbs. and thought it would be cool to have someone my age/weight to talk to when need be and maybe kind of make a challenge out of it to see who could get to their goal weight first. My husband has not an ounce of fat on him, so he cannot relate. I was 150 lbs. about 9 years ago and then I unexpectedly got pregnant with my last son and quit smoking at the same time. I packed on about 70 lbs. and never lost any of it. My son is 9 years old now and I'm tired of the weight and I want my size 10 back so badly. I'm doing this if it kills me. We can also provide support to each other if you want. Thanks for listening.
