    Feel free to add me, I'll reply with a wink and smile. I'm kind of like that sergeant off full metal jacket, only I scream pure awesomeness.

    I'm a beginner myself! I am very active on the site though and comment a lot! I try to be supportive. I have about another 129 pounds to lose myself.

    Anyone can feel free to add me!

    It's my start here too! I lost about 55 pounds without MFP, but I think this will be very important in my weightloss journey going forward!

    All the best!

    We can do it!

    I'm very much a beginner, and I have high hopes. I'm doing it this time. I'm making the commitment. I need friends to help encourage me to get my *kitten* up and work, as well as tell me how stupid my excuse for eating that doughnut is! I'm looking for like-minded people, and those that are beginners like I am. Thanks guys!

    Welcome to MFP!
    I'm Jenny. I started MFP 18 months ago after my youngest was born.
    I have 6 children, 15, 14, 12, 7, 7, and 20mo. I gained 100 pounds when I had the twins.

    My biggest thing was to start slow. Make several easy changes instead of one huge one dropping everything "bad" in your diet. If it makes you miserable it is more likely to fail. A lot of times you can replace things with healthier low calorie items like Berries instead of Cinnamon rolls in my case ( 500 calorie Cinnamon Rolls at that) My biggest fail was Mountain Dew.

    I love the gym. Zumba is a blast but I'm one of those people that seem to lose weight better just walking ( granted I walk with the baby on my back) I'd love to help any way I can. Just send a message if you have any questions or need help with anything.
