Aged 54 and aim to lose 135 lbs! New to MFP.

Hi,

I'm new to MFP. I've only just joined today thanks to my daughter inspiring me to lose weight and use MFP with her. We both have about 135lbs to lose so hopefully we can do it together.

Here's a bit about me.

Hight - 6 feet 2 inches
Age - 54
Current Weight - 324.6 lbs
Goal Weight - 190 lbs

It would be great to have motivational friends on this experience and hopefully we all reach our goals. :bigsmile:

    Soon to 53 and have dropped a load of weight. MFP has been such a help. I'm more or less in maintenece (getting rid of holiday weight right now) and can only get here for a few minutes during the week but more on the weekends. I'd be more then happy to help if I can.
