welcome aboard......mfp is the best thing i have ever found to lose weight....it is not fast if you do it right,,,,,but you will change your way of eating and lose weight......do not think of this as a diet.......it is a lifestyle change. go to message boards and in the search box type "roadmap" .....read it and try to follow it. feel free to add me to your friends list.0

Welcome to MFP! I am just getting back into this again after a while of not having the motivation. You can feel free to add me as well! We are all on this path together and can really use friends that understand what we are going through!0

I'm in almost the same boat! I have 3 boys. (very athletic) I used to be a runner before the boys and 2 back surgeries. I miss being skinny and want to be able to do more with my boys.0

Hi Kyla,
Well my age and story are a bit different, but the weight we want to drop is almost identical. I started last week and lost a few # already, but totally agree with the other people that said to take it slow. I only look at each week's goal....otherwise I'd never start.
I am a friend for you..0 -
I'm looking to lose around the same amount. Feel free to add me0

Hi Kyla!
I am in a very similar boat- 35 years old, 70 pounds to loose, 2 amazing kids and a great hubby. Feel free to add me!0 -

Feel free to add me. I am a little similar. 21 years old, a little over 100 pounds to lose, an almost 3
year old daughter and a wonderful husband. We run a dog rescue and I work as a cashier on the
side to support us. :]0 -

I'd be happy to be your friend -- I'm just starting out too. 5' 9" and around 226. Right now my goal is just to get under 200lbs. It is too overwhelming for me to think of the big long-term numbers.0

Hi Kyla, I have a lot more weight to lose, but I've gotten a good start here. The friends I have on this site are a huge motivation for me. Anyone can feel free to add me :happy:
Like someone else said, starting small is the way to go, and take your time.0 -
Welcome to MFP! It is one of the best tools in my arsenal. I have well over 100 pounds to lose and I turned 50 in March so good for you for taking action now. I'd be happy to be a friend if you send me an invite. I'm down 31 pounds since March 5.0

Hi! I also have about 90+ lbs to lose. Feel free to add me! :-) Congrats on making the first step!0
