I'm in Atlanta, Georgia, but I've only been here less than 2 years. Before that, I was in Houston & Galveston, TX for 20 years, NYC for 10, Birmingham, AL for 13, and was originally from New Orleans!

Where are you?

    Hi, just found your group and am thrilled. I am 49 and live in a little town outside of Denton Texas. I joined MFP on Aug 27th (my 49th birthday) with the determination to hit my 50s much healthier and lighter. I immediately started looking for women around my age that were succeeding in weight loss, as I knew we had unique challenges in this area. I have around 90 women on my friends list now, many who have lost and kept off significant amounts of weight, despite menopause, injuries, arthritis, etc. They are a great motivation for me whenever I start to doubt myself. I will share the group link on my wall and invite them all to join us here, as there is definitely strength in numbers!

    That's fantastic, Debbie! So happy you're here and that you're inviting your friends. As you can see, we are less than 24 hours old, but we're already growing pretty quickly! Yea!

    It's a movement! ;c)

    Oh, I love Decatur! I lived in Virginia Highlands for several years. I miss being able to walk to places!! Walking to Piedmont Park on a nice day was one of my favorite things to do.

    Good morning! I live in Dagsboro, DE and have for the last 6 years. Prior to that I lived 37 in Southern California. Trust me, Delaware is no California but it's grown on me. I was born in Illinois and live there until I was 8.

    Hello to all of the North Texas ladies! I lived in the Dallas-Fort Worth area for the better part of 43 years and am now near Omaha, NE. I'm happy living here, but I do miss my family. I lived in northwest Arkansas for a bit in my early twenties while I went to school and got married, then took him home to Texas.

    I am in Smiths Station, Alabama - About 1 1/2 hours from Atlanta. I was born in Texas - Witchataw Falls, TX. But I only lived there the first two years of my life. My father was air force so we moved frequently. Moved to Alabama when I married 38 years ago.
