I have made some wonderful friends in the last few days, and would like to add a few more for support. Anyone interested in giving and receiving support, add me.

  • You can add me....I'm short , 41 and also have a long way to go.

    We can do this.....
  • You have just described me! (Ok, I am 44!) I have only just begun and am hugely daunted about how much I have to lose!
  • You described me as well. I am back at this after a long "hiatus" & need all the support I can get!

    Hi!

    I'm new too. I just started MFP yesterday. I'm 45 and have been gaining weight steadily the last year or so. I've tried watching what I eat. Just finished the Insanity program---and gained 5 lbs!! I guess it's hormones or something, cause I'm gaining it all in my belly. It's so frustrating! I keep having to buy new pants because I get too fat for my old ones.

    Hopefully, logging my food will budge my scale.

    Yay! I had great success with MFP last year, but got distracted. I was not active in the community. I am hoping that this will make it harder to walk away. All in!

    Hi, just started this site today and started my diet yesterday. I am 44 and have 120 lbs to lose. I really do not have a good support system, so it would be great to be in a good support group.

    Count me in! I'm a shortstop and 40 (well for another week and a half anyway), and have at least 22lbs to go - I may add another 7 to that target later depending on how this goes.

    Feel free to add me :D
