New to My Fitness Pal

Options
Hello,
My name is Judy and I am 47 years old and from Ohio, Im writing because I am new to My fitness pal and im actually new to trying to lose weight, yea I have tried before and realized that I wasn't as vested as I thought I was so the 50 lbs I lost just came right back. I am married and my husband also needs to lose weight and eat healthier. Well wish us luck and any tips would be helpful.

    I have some family in Akron so I'm down there every now and then :-)

    I find having MFP friends really helps keep me on track here.

    Your post could have been written about me. I am 48 and have at least 75 more pounds to lose; however I have already lost over 45lbs before finding MFP. Add me as a friend if you wish, I will help motivate.

    Welcome aboard, Judy. I'd LOVE to have you on board as a friend. I lost 30 lbs. before joining MFP last year and have lost an additional 18. I'm not 47, I'm only 38, but I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes last year. I've taken this VERY seriously and don't intend to go back.
