in Introduce Yourself
Hi there, I am 42 wife, mother and grandmother and started my journey to a healthier, happier me Jan 1 with 121 lbs to lose, just hit my half-way mark of 60 lbs lost. I log everyday and try hard to motivate both myself and others. Take a look at my profile and if you like what you see, would be happy to have you as a friend. Many of the ones I've started with have fallen by the wayside :( . Thanks, take care, Loni.

    I'm a little older than you but I can always use more friends. Add me if you would like a little more encouragement! Has taken me a year and a half to lose just over 100 lbs. You have done an amazing job. I have thyroid issues and artificial knees but neither of them stop me.

    You are just what I need- did WW for a year and lost 30 lbs- got out of the habit of tracking plus felt like I was throwing away $$ by not using the tools. Then I stumbled accross this site. Started out strong, but fell off because I had no one to interact with and motivate me. Congrats on your sucess! Please add me! I too am in my 40's and trying to live a healthier life style. My first box of vegtables from the CSA we joined showes up today...going to try and be adventuress on my vegtable eating. Will share any new favorites I find.

    I'm afraid i was one of those who started on here, did good, then got lax with traking (especially when I was having a BAD day) anyway I started back last week, and would love to make some new contacts.

    For anyone looking to revamp their friend list I'd be happy to give you support. I have found that some of the people I added at the beginning of the year aren't sticking with it or aren't as supportive as they once were. I'm happy to help anyone! Feel free to add me. :drinker:

    This is my first time using this site for anything other than tracking calories. I'm not sure how to add friends or talk to others. It would be great to have a few people to chat with about loosing weight and nutrition, I'm pretty sure my husbands ear.:laugh:

    Hi, Congratulations on your success so far! I am also (almost) 1/2 way to my initial goal and am 45 years old. I have awesome friends, but can always use more. Anyone is free to add me--warning: I eat chocolate almost every day and have the occasional logged treat meal/day--if that offends you, I am probably not the best friend for you (I had someone unfriend me because of it). Also, I try to be very supportive, but log in weird hours and usually can't respond to everyone each day. But I try to be the best friend I can be. :)

    Hi All! Please feel free to add me too! I started with MFP originally in about March but didn't have any friends or tried to reach out to anybody. I fell off the wagon and would only log in sporadically. I would log in for a couple of days, then not for a few days. I decided to reach out for friends and it really does make a huge difference for me. We all need the support and friendly kick in the bum when necessary. :-)
