I just turned 60 and want to make sure that I have every advantage to lead a healthy lifrstyle. I am also involved in research and have gained a wealth of knowlede in the nutrition area. Please let me know if I can be of any assistance. All the best to you...

    Add me! Just getting back on track myself as of Jan 7th. I'm watching cholesterol and saturated fat intake since the LDL side is somewhat high. I did alright in 2011 starting at 174# but lost the "Umph", too busy, too time consuming, go to the gym tomorrow....all these excuses and plus some!! Starting out with a pretty positive attitude so compared to last year, I thought I get more involved with the message boards and make some friends for inspiration and motivation. Good Luck & Health to you!

    You can add me....I'm a 66 year old , married and mother of 3 grown kids. I've been on and off diets all my life. I lose very slowly when I do make up my mind to lose weight. I started 12/27/2012 and I was down 4 pounds last week. It will be much slower here on out. I have 30 # I would like to lose. I'm doing this with my daughter who is also using this site....good luck to everyone.

    Feel free to add me. I am not new to MFP, but have been slacking up until recently. I realized that the weight isn't just going to go away.

    Feel free to add me, I have 3 kids (17, 14 and 3). I just started back on MFP after a few months of having fallen off the wagon, but I need to get back on track again and we can all use as many friends as we can get, right? :)

    Do not forget that dieting alone is not enough, you need to go out for brisk walks or climb stairs or put the kids in a pram and do a quick trip out of the house. Do not be obsessed by the food alone.

    Hi there , anyone reading this please feel free to add me, I feel weightloss is easier when pals come in bigger numbers, you can never have too much support encouragement and motivation. I have had 6 kids, and I am not having anymore, my husband took care of that lol. So I want to get this weight off, and not look like I have 6 kids, and be healthy and active with my family and friends.
    So lets do this together :)

    having as many friends with the same goals (whether is 15, 50, or 100 lbs) can be very encouraging and motivating !!!

    I'm in! I just started counting again after a long 2012... last time I was being faithful tracking was well, a long time ago. Early 2012... tired of my extra 40 pounds & am looking to get rid of it as well! :] I succeeded losing 22 lbs in 2010 but couldn't keep it off. I'm starting back with the basics, eating REAL food, counting, going to start running & lifting weights again. Add me!

    Feel free to add me. I would like that. This is a personal journey to find your right balance for life but personal does not mean alone! I have been with MFP for over a year and never posted anything until today. I just used the phone tracker before but am feeling a little more interaction might help me. I personally watch my carbs and calories, with more control effort on the carbs than the calories. It is working. I am not starving, I am mentally clearer, I am happier. I stay away from white foods and I check the labels of foods for the carbs. I don't obsess and I don't worry myself if I have a bad day. I just pick myself up and keep going. I do try to walk a minimum of 15 continuous minutes per day. I think the lower carbs are my key as controlling them makes me feel better no matter what else I do. So, I follow the Eat Real Food, Not too much, mostly plants way, and keep the bread off the table. LOL! This is the first time it is all really coming together and working for me!
