    Hi








    Hi! I too need to lose a few pounds. I would like to lose 50 to 60 lbs. I am 60 yrs. old so it is a slow process because of age but I am really determined this time. This is my second week and only loss ounces this week and was just a little frustrated because I am back at the gym excercising at least 4 days a week but hope to add more. We are busy making our cabin our home so we are extremely busy and its hard to get there but I am going to get better. My biggest motivation right now is we are going to Hawaii in February and I would love to look decent and be in better shape for all the walking we are going to be doing. So feel free to add me as a friend and we will knock this weight loss in the you know what!

    I'm looking for buddies, too! Just joined a couple days ago and have a 30 lb goal. I'd love to grow my support circle and be a part of yours!

    My neighbor lost 40 lbs with MFP and didn't count calories of fruits and veggies. I'm trying that route first since I've used to eating closer to 2000+ calories and am allotted about 1300 now. I'm still hungry...but maybe it's just today. Yesterday wasn't as bad so I'm just going to take it one day at a time. We can do this!

    Okay I joined today. I am 50 and would like to lose 50lbs. Wanted to lose 50 by my birthday but here I am. I exercise 3 times a week but can't stop eating. I am going to start tracking. Would like to lose 20 lbs by July if I keep motivated. Here goes....:drinker:

    Hi Everyone,

    You can all add me too as I want to lose at least 25 pounds. My fitmess pal works because I lost 25 and gained it back because I blew out my knee and turned 50 and my age is having an effect. I did Nutrisystem for about a month and just don't like the foods. I like this site much better and it's FREE!
