in Introduce Yourself
Hey guys!!! I've been a mfp for a while, I've had my ups & downs. I turned 40 last week, and it slapped me in the face! How could I be 40 and still be overweight?? I promised myself a few years ago I would have the weight off by now, but I didn't. So now time to deal with reality. I'm looking for new friends to help motivate, support & encourage me along the way. Feel free to add me & lets get this weight off once & for all. The truth is under these 90 pounds I wanna lose .....I'm SUPER cute :)

    Greetings. I'll be 42 in 2 months' time and I'm right there with you. I have about 97 left to go myself, but I'm determined to get there. Already lost 100, so what's another 97, right? :)

    We can do this!

    Add me if you like. I'm brand new myself, just found this place on Sunday.

    I am 39 but turning 40 this year. I have about 75 pounds to lose. I am tried of being overweight but I know that I am the reason and it will take time for me to develop healthy habits. Good luck and keep a postive attitude. That is what I am telling myself.

    I too turned 40 last October. I have around 70 to loose. I had went to WW from aug til nov of last year did good for about two months. I lost 14.4 lbs then i fell off the wagon and really never got back on it. I havent weighed sure i have gained it all back or close to it. But i so desire to loose. However i am struggling to get in that right frame of mind again. I still log on here daily yet i have not been faithful at it as i was at one time. Feel free to add me mayb we cud encourage one another.

    I'm getting ready to turn 42 also. My babies will be graduating from HS at the end of May. I want to feel self confident at their graduation and as of right now I DONT. I'm looking for new MFP friends for encouragement. I would like to loose 30 more pounds. Hints and Tips would be greatly appreciated!!!

I am at an all time high..but hey, that is why I am here ready to lose 100 lbs!! . I will set small goals first. But good luck to us all and I know we can do it!
