Hi Ladies! I'm Tammy from Tennessee and I'm new to the group and new to MFP. I'm 44 and wanting to make a few changes in my life style. Eating healthier, getting more exercise, and losing a few pounds is at the top of my list!!

I look forward to chatting with you soon!!

Hey everyone:
I've been on MFP a while now but recently added to this group and didn't think to introduce myself til I stumbled across this post. Hello everyone!!! It was all or nothing for me & I was able to meet my goals (I think for the first time ever) using this site. I am now maintaining & enjoying life. I would love the motivate & support if anyone would love to add me. I now do feel fabulous at 42!

Hi, I'm Loralea. I'll be 48 later this month. I learned about MFP through a former co-worker who just logged 100 days on here last week then hit the 40 pound weight loss milestone a few days later. Her journey and candor inspired me so I hopped on.

I was thin most of my life but I always had to watch my weight fairly closely and stay fit to maintain. After I married in 1999 a pound here and there went on, then a severe back injury in 2006 turned my life upside down. I've adjusted to the chronic pain and lifestyle changes and I'm so grateful for what I CAN do. I just landed my dream job in November, my training is behind me, And now I want to lose what the epidurals and post-surgery inactivity put on my frame and be the strongest and best I can be.

I'm also a member of the Lose a Pound a Week in 2013 group, and I'm considering doing the c25k soon. I live in Florida and want to be thin and enjoy going to the beach in a tiny swimsuit again. I'd also like to wear a little black dress next New Year's Eve.

Hello to all. I wish you much success and look forward to us encouraging and enjoying one another.
