Hi guys, I'm 32 and looking for anyone who has 100lbs+ to lose. Would be nice to share stories and ups and downs with others in a similar boat! I'm new to MFP and loving it on my comp and the iPhone app.

    Just joined this weekend. I am going for 130 total. It will be a long hard road to travel, but it seems like there are a lot of people to help motivate you on this site.
