hey y'all!! I'm ready to stay focused and be a better ME!!! I have lost the weight before so I know I can do it again. I'm 40 yrs old and live in Texas. I've got a good deal of weight to lose (more than 75 lbs) and I would love some new buddies to help and motivate *each other* along the way!!! I'm a stay at home mom and caregiver to my mom.. my dad passed away about 2 months ago and that in itself had me sidetracked for a bit....but I am ready to get back up on the healthy me wagon and get this done!!! Hope to talk with y'all soon :)

    I am 44 years old and have 55 more pounds to go...please feel free to add me. If you have any questions please feel free to ask. It does helps when we can motivate each other.
  • I'm in my 40's too and planning on losing 50+ pounds. Seems the older I get the less it's about looks and more about health. Sorry for your loss but it sounds like you have quite a few people counting on you to be there for them for a very long time to come. Good luck with you weight loss and definitely feel free to add me!
  • I'm 45 and have lots to loose too! (100+) Feel free to add me as a friend, I'd be glad to take this journey with you :)
