Hi Everyone! I'm a 37 year old single mom of an 18 year old who's about to leave me with an empty nest! Learning how to live life for me now and I guess getting back into dating is one of the steps. I've been an active MFP'er for a while but am finally finding what works for me. I'm on a roll and it feels good to be losing and getting healthy! Now, if I could find someone to share in the journey with me, that would be amazing! This looks like a fun group, can't wait to start exploring it!0

Hi! I'm Joyce and have been single now for about 5 years. I have two grown children (my daughter still lives with me), a couple of dogs and 3 cats. I have been struggling with my weight all my life, but after my best friend died last year I have been diligently working on getting the pounds off and adding exercise in my life.
I'm hoping to meet someone someday, as I miss sharing my life with another, but at 54 years of age and not much of a network of people I am finding it difficult. I have tried online dating, but didn't like it.
Anyway, nice to meet you all!!0 -
Hi everyone! In Palm Beach County, FL. I'm 28 years old and enjoying life!
Looking forward to chatting with everyone!
Edit:
I guess I should also add that I have been active with MFP since October 2011 and have lost close to 50lbs... working on approximately another 50lbs AND recently started the C25K training in hopes of running a 5k in December! Woot!0 -
Figured it was about time I posted at least a hello on here. I've been on MyFitnessPal since around May, actively eating Paleo since June which is working well for me, long way to go but I'm keeping at it. This group is definitely my go-to when it comes to reading threads, both for honesty and great stories from people. Getting in shape and all has really made me feel better about myself and I find myself looking around on the internet for a companion and someone with like interests. Anyways, off home from work early today and enjoying the afternoon
Hope everyone else is doing the same!

Hi I'm Dani, 25 from Dublin Ireland. I'm single since April when my fiance died. I'm not looking for a relationship at all now, but thought it might be an idea to join this group, see what everyone's saying, take a few tips that might come in handy in the future lol, and just mingle with the single peeps

Hello... I'm Donna, 36. Single mom (sole parent) to my dd, who turns 5 in January. Since having her I kind of gave up on everything 'me'. Technically, I've been on MFP for...good grief... 2 years. Only recently have I become serious about doing something to get myself back. I've never joined a group here and figured I'd give some a shot.0

Hello!
I have been on MFP since April 2011, but only just realized there is a singles section
I am 32 years old and have 7 year old twins. I have been apart from their father for almost 2 years, and recently out of a 9 month relationship within the last 2.5 months. I've been doing the online dating gig, where I met my last boyfriend, and it is frustrating...but I plug on
I am in Alberta Canada.
Have enjoyed reading the posts, and replying where I have an opinion.
Neat community, I look forward to getting to know you guys.0 -
Hi, I have been a member of MFP since july, 2011. I only found this group through a friend who is a member here.
I am 57, single since 2009. After several life issues including the divorce I had become very reclusive. My self image was so low. But MFP has been a real positive in my life. I want more positive things now.
Since my success so far here I want to start socializing ( a little at a time :-) So I am looking to make friends here that are helpful to get advice and input from. About 2 weeks ago I went to an online site POF to begin making some contact with women. Not knowing what to expect, I still have found it disappointing.
I have a long way to go. Literally, I have been inside the house about 99% of the time since 2009. In 2010 I might have been out only 5 or 6 times for short periods only. Mobility is still an issue (but I am improving) so I don't have the gym contact that most have. I have gone to local casino with my brother and his family and I talk to whoever is next to me just to converse. I feel it is helping.
My goal is to regain normal mobility without the cane or walker and find some of my 'old self' with confidence and my outgoing personality that has been gone for so long.
Any advice on re-joining the rest of the world from guys and gals is appreciated.
I have made the first step...I started.
I will continue until I succeed.

Hi!
My 15 y/o (16 in Feb) son is my Gift from God! :flowerforyou: He is my blessing and sunshine! In March 2012, my husband of 22 years and I decided to split ways. The papers have been filed, but he's being a butt and hasn't signed them yet. So technically, I'm separated. I pray that the divorce will be FINAL SOOOONNNN!!!!
I'm 45 and live in northeast Florida. In the last year, I've lost 88 pounds, however, I still have a lllloooonnnnnggg way to go! 51 - 61 pounds left! The goal is for my health as it had begun to decline w/high blood pressure & related issues.
Nice to meet you & look forward to becoming a more active member in this group. :drinker:0 -
Hi!
I am recently seperated froma 16 year marriage. I have to wonderful boys who are 5 and 8. Trying to navigate through the whole divorce/seperation process. It has certainly a life changing experience.
I joined MFP a year ago and have lost a total of 140lbs but still a little more to go. Looking forward to getting to know others who are in my situation and who kick butt each day!1 -
Hy there! I am Terra and have been on MFP for almost a year. I started on here just as my last relationship was ending after 3 years. It was ugly and demeaning and I have struggled to move forward not because of feelings for him but feelings of lack of self-worth. I have lost about 50 lbs last year and with it I have gained a bit of self-esteem. I feel ready to date but ya know, it's pretty dayum hard. My experiences back into the dating world have been hard on a good day and downright awful on a typical one. So, hopefully this group will be a place where I can sound off, offer support and seek guidance on occasion :-)0
