    Hi! My name is Mary but my friends call me Penny. I love, love, love MFP and the friends that I have found that motivate and inspire me. I am 48 years old, married for 27 1/2 years, have one son who is 25 and two dogs, boxers, Joe and Jasper. I have lost a bit but still have over 100 pounds to lose. I am on a journey to change my life style. NOT a diet. That is a four letter word to me. My motto is, "ONE DAY, ONE STEP, ONE MEAL, ONE POUND AT A TIME. THAT'S HOW I HAVE TO DO IT!!" I try not to look at the big picture at this point because when you have a lot of weight to loss it can become overwhelming. Well for me anyway. So...I try my best to live that motto. You can do this!!!! Feel free to add me if you would like. It's a great place with great people. Have a wonderful day!

    My name is Ashley. I'm 24 years old and I have 100+ lbs to lose. It hurts to admit this... Since High school, my main focus has always been education. I wasn't over weight in high school (i guess by bmi standards i was by 20-30lbs). I ignored my physical needs. I'm a night shift RN on a cardiac unit. EVERYDAY I see what I will become if I don't change my lifestyle. Today I am starting Atkins with my boyfriend of 5 years. We have been on diets before, but never followed through because we simply did not change our lifestyles. It's different this time. This time, it seems more dire. My boyfriend will be turing 29 in a couple of weeks and it's hitting him hard that he's going to be 30 in a year and STILL 100+lbs over weight. We offer each other a lot of support, but we are too forgiving to each other. I know Atkins has a bad connotation, but I feel it's a great solution. My dad is a diabetic and if he'd counted carbs in his 20's and exercised at all, he would probably not be having the issues that he's having 20 years later. I'm open to suggestions. My meals will consist of A LOT of leafy greens, fish and chicken. Also, I'll be drinking lots of water and eating every 4-5 hours- up to 6 hrs but not any longer while awake.

    I can't tell you how embarrassed I an that I've let it get this bad. I'm a nurse for godsakes... i know what to do (for the most part).

    Thank you for listening and supporting.

    I'm 54 years old and I need to lose 112 pounds. I'm very frustrated and really angry with myself for letting it get this bad. I haven't been under 200 pounds since 2000. My weight has caused health issues and now my doctor is concerned that in addition to sleep apnea, joint pain, and irregular heartbeats that I may end up with type 2 diabetes.

    Said all of this to say ... you can count me in ...

    My goal when I joined in April was to lose 180lbs, I have lost 87 so far and I am hoping 2014 sees me at my goal weight. Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other along the way.

    I'm trying this again. I need some friends to help keep me on track. My ultimate goal is to lose 150+. But for this first week my goal is to increase my water intake and to log my food daily. Please feel free to friend me.
    I know we can do this together.

    I, as many of the previous posters are in the same boat as you!
    I haven't made the decision to join/post here lightly, an undertaking of this sort much be approached with everything that you have in your heart and your soul and your brain! Just reading some of the success stories has been a huge positive influence to me, I hope that some day I will be able to show someone else that; "yes, you can do it if you really want too".
    I'm 51 and have been down this road before but I'm going to do my best to only travel it one way!
    Anyone who would like to add me please feel free!
