Hi! I'm Jennie and i'm in the UK (just putting that out there, timezones don't bother me)
I've been logging into MFP for awhile now But starting to feel a little lonely when i look at my main screen! I need to say hello to people :)

I am 34 (oh so nearly 35) and looking to drop about 40-50 lbs I have a few rough(but fun) few weeks coming up where i will need to keep massive control, as i have a mega sweet tooth :)

Looking forward to talking with you
Jennie

    Hey Jenny,

    I've just joined this and starting to get serious (turned 30 last month). I need to drop a lot of weight, starting with the first 25+Kg so it isn't too daunting. I'm from Ireland so the time zones aren't an issue either ;)

    Hey gang,

    Welcome all. I've only been around a few weeks but really love MFP. It's giving me the structure and community support I need to jumpstart my journey. Feel free to add me as a friend if you wish.

    Peace -- TC

    Hi Jennie - I'm 60 but still young in my mind even though my body says different. I'm trying to stay committed to losing some weight. Started a yoga class this past week so I hope this will energize me and get me motivated.

    Any may add me if you want. All of us need good support. I am fortunate to have some solid friends here. Good luck.

    Here is my friend request spiel...

    Friend me if you want...if not, totally cool. Here is what I let people know when making a friend request, "If you want to friend me...do it only if you want a mutual relationship of support and sharing in the journey. Not a friend collector, but a relationship builder. Taking applications now ;) ...safe bet, very happily married for 33+ years. Read my profile first. Support here is great."
