Looking for support and friends

:flowerforyou: I am 44, a mother, aunt, and friend...I am divorced with two wonderful children :heart: who need a good role modle. My ex has them and well I want them to see me making healthy and good choices. I was thin in my much younger years...due to comfort eat {which I have controll of} and not feeling as though I mattered I gained and gained. I have changed what I eat and watch it ... I would like to have support and friends who are here for me. I will do the same for you. I am a great cheerleader. I had a life changing event five years ago and it makes me see things so clear. One is being Happy :smile: Healthy and and feeling better about myself.

    Hey i am a 21 year old female who is 5'6'' and 150lbs. I'm pretty active. I practice martial arts about 3 times a week and I will be fighting in February. I'm trying to up my endurance, cardio, and power. I've never been a good runner and would like help with that. I also need to lose about 12 lbs to fight in the weight class my instructor wants me too. Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated as well as any buddies that would like to join me.
