I'm a 44 year old mom/wife/paralegal/chauffeur/chef working to set a good example for my girls and trying to get my health back and even feel sexy sometimes. I've started a support system but would like some more support from other mom's who I can congratulate and commiserate with.

I started my weight loss journey three months ago with my doctor and a nutritionist who recommended logging my food with MFP, I'm officially down 30lbs and have another 30lbs to go. Anybody else looking for a support system? Let me know!

    Hello, I am a 43 yr old mom of 4 with my own daycare as well, who just began my weight loss journey. I have a looong way to go...about 100 lbs to be exact so I definitely would appreciate so support along the way!! I would love to hear of others my age who are fighting the same battle & will offer encouragement wherever I can. Look forward to hearing from you all soon.

    Hi Feel free to add me....I am 40 with twin boys!!! i can use all the support I can get :)
  • Feel free to add me. I am 50 (close enough to 40 something, I hope), and work as an attorney which is the job I do in order to be able to chauffeur, clothe, feed, etc. a 15 year old, an 18 year old and a 20 year old.
  • Add me!!! I'm a 48 year old mom working as an Executive Assistant. My girls are (get this...) 22 and 10 I had my picture taken with them last summer and UUUUUUGHHHH I couldn't believe what had happened to me! so I did some research, started logging my food (and eating better because of it) and doing some walking... then I hurt my back--down for nearly a year, I'm back at it again... I would like to lose 40 lbs by year end, and I'm hoping to reach 25% by the end of the week.

    Let's do this.
