Hey,

I am 23 years old and just wondered if anybody around my own age fanices supporting each other through weightloss.

I have a lot to loose!!

I am not dismissing any older people as any support is great!! However, it would be nice to see how people my own age are getting on :)

Feel free to add, This is my 3rd day using MFP!

    Hello! I'm twenty-two and would love to join you in your weight loss journey. I've been using MFP since January, and it's been going well so far.

    I'm sending you a friend request now.

    Wow! I must say as a twenty nine year old I find this deeply offensive. Just because I go to bed early and my metabolism has slowed down doesn't mean I don't fanicy support and by golly it sure as chips doesn't mean I can't give support as well.

    You're not interested in knowing how they get off??

    I am too old for this. I feel discriminated against. Sigh

    I'm 25, and wouldn't mind a few friends close to my age in this journey too. I don't know though, I'm bordering on late 20s. Is that too old?

    Hey, I'm going to add some of you guys too!
    All I would mean by looking for people my own age is that I can't really relate to the 'Mum of 2 who has put on weight in their 30s'...
    I've always been overweight for as long as I can remember... :(
    Nice to see you all here.
  • hey!!

    I'm more than twice your age and I wish I could promise you twice the support, but I can't make that promise. I wish you much success!
