    Hi, I'm pretty new here also. I have to loose 30lbs, which is probably nothing in the eyes of most people, but it's more complicated than that because I'm a physical wreck. Being a half-pro basketball player in the past makes the whole situation for me really difficult, what's more disturbing is that I was never used to be on a diet. I'm trying to loose this weight for over 3 years now, unfortunately with no effects.

    I have litearally no friends here because no one from my town uses myfitnesspal, so any supportive friends will be really appreciated!

    Hey, I've done the whole MFP before just on my own but ended up just gaining it all back so trying the whole group thing this time :) I'm quite big on the exercising and fitness side of things so I'm here for any tips if you want them

    Feel free to add me. I am 40 years old. I joined mfp in 2012 and lost 30 lbs which was my goal but since then I gained it all back. I am so over this so this is my first day back on track. I have been through the ups and downs of the weight lose journey so no judgement from me only support. I could use you support too. We have a hard journey ahead of us but we can do this.

  • I am 45 years old , only started gaining after 40, need to lose 15 - 20 for my clothes to fit again. Not as much as you but seems impossible right now! Trying though.

    I just joined and would love to have supportive friends. I made an initial weight loss goal of 100 lbs, but should probably lose more than that.

    Anybody can add me too!! I am not getting the support from my family, including my husband. They all have terrible eating and exercise habits, and I feel like I am doing this alone!! :indifferent: My husband says I should have more willpower, and does not cook or want to walk with me. :ohwell:
