in Introduce Yourself
Hi, I'm 50. And I need some additional support. I'm married, with children, grandchildren and live in Louisiana USA. I've been an on again/off again MFP'er for 2/3 years. I log daily, as honestly as possible, and I always comment and offer my support to all of my friends I currently have. I am realizing though that only 2 or 3 are actually offering me support in return unfortunately. Anyone interested, please feel free to add me, thanks :flowerforyou:

    Hi - I sent you a request. I will be 56 y.o. in August (yikes that number crept up on me), and have lost 60 lbs from last September to this past March. I am currently trying to maintain all that has been accomplished. Would love to get to know you on MFP and encourage your healthier adventure!!

    Hi! I also just sent you a friend request! I have found MFP to be very helpful and easy to use; I am in need of more friends, as well. I am soooo happy that I found it!

    Hi everyone I just hit 59 (I can barely write that # LOL) close to goal but have no plans to go away. I log daily and try to be as supportive as I can. Anyone can add me if they would like a new friend along the way.
