Would like to add some friends on MFP that are around my age. I'm 41, the mother of 2 teenage girls, and I'm a nurse. I like to run, bike, be outdoors, and read. Thanks in advance!

  • I'm 43, no kids. I have recently started running and am working my way up to 5k. I also do Zumba and walk. I'm a librarian, so reading is a given. I also like to travel, shop, and watch Bollywood movies. I am toward the end of the weight loss part of my journey, but want to stay motivated to eat right and exercise.

    I agree with you! Having friends on the site makes me more accountable. But it seems a lot of people come and go pretty quickly. Feel free to add me, and maybe we can help each othef

    You can add me! I'm 41, mom to two teenagers, and I'm a nurse in Delaware! I have been a member for a while, but never really stuck with it. Hoping I can get my s**t together and make it happen in 2014!

    Hello! I'm 46, married, two kids (one 14, one almost 7).
    I'm a pro cake decorator (like that helps). I'm trying to lose 30 lbs.
    I started here earlier this year, but got discouraged & busy. I'm back and going full-throttle with Bodyrock workouts and weights.
    This is hard!

    I'm 42 with 5 children..we are working on having one more..lol :0 but if it doesn't happen I am continuing to work on muscle toning etc.. I am 5' 5 and 110 lbs and not looking to really lose weight. At my age it seems I can't find many women with much in common with me with weight or goals. Kind of feel alone..:/

    You are welcome to add me, but my incredible knack for sarcasm is really a barrier for some folks.
    I'm 45 and a mom to two teenage girls and a ten year old girl.

    Having a group of friends ans support can make all the difference! I''m 45, married, and have a one son - a 14 year old who keeps us busy. Makes it hard to keep on track sometimes just keeping up with his hockey and school schedule. I used another site a few years ago (love it but needed change to shake things up) to help me lose 50 lbs. The key was a social group to keep me going and accountable. Got lazy (the truth) and now need to drop some of that weight again to get back to a healthier place. Feel free to add me!

    I've been on the site, off and on, but am re-committing! And while I have some wonderful supportive friends on here, quite a few have gone silent in the past few months. I'm 42 and married with two young children (5 and 3) - also work full-time so life is busy. Feel free to add me!
