:smile: Hi all,
Yesterday was my first day on MFP. It was a pretty easy day but it was only the first day. I know it will be hard to stay on track so I would love to have friends to motivate and to help motivate me.. I am doing this alone, so I thought I would reach out to the MFP community to see if anyone is in the same boat as me =)
I am 43, f and my goal is to lose about 50 pounds,, ugg i said it !! It seems like a impossible journey, but one that I am dedicated to... one day at a time..
Stop by and say hi =)
:smile:

    You are definitely not alone. I needed to lose 35 when I started 2 weeks ago. I am already down to 30. I've sent you an invite, maybe we can motivate each other. Remember it isn't all about weight. Sometimes I am a mad at the scale but I am always happy about the inches I am losing :)

    HI! I NEW AT THIS BUT I HAVE GOT TO GET MOTIVATED AND LOSE WEIGHT!! I AM A DIABETIC AND I TAKE INSULIN AND IT HAS PUT ABOUT 60 PDS ON ME!! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN BIG IN MY LIFE. WHEN I WAS IN MY 30'S I LOST OVER 100 POUNDS BY CUTTING BACK AND WALKING, I AM NOW IN MY EARLY 50'S AND IT IS SO MUCH HARDER TO LOSE WEIGHT BECAUSE I DON'T HAVE THE ENGERY TO DO ANYTHING!!!!!!
