Hi!!
I started on MFP in January hoping to loose about 20 lbs and getting in better shape. I have lost 13 so far and I feel stronger and healthier than I have in years. I would like to loose a few more but I am also toning up and getting strong again like I was in my 20's and early 30's. I am a 40 year old SAHM of 2 and would love to have a few more friends like me who could use a little more support. Did I mention that I was a big wine drinker and have pretty much given that up (except for occasional night out with friends).
Friend me if you would like some more friends through this journey!!

    Hi! I am 44, married with 2 kids and work part-time while they are in school.

    Congratulations on almost reaching your goal! I have a ways to go yet (11 lbs with 50 lbs left), but I'm working hard and I am a starting to see light at the end of the tunnel. =)

    Feel free to add me. I am learning that we all need support and encouragement to get to the "finish line".

    Feel free to add me, I'm trying to lose like 26 lb more, and those are stubborn. They just like to be on me, lol. So, little by little we can get rid of them.

    you can add me too but I'm not on here as often as I should be. And can't access the community boards from my phone where I do most of my posting.

    Hi, mommybird1! I have started MFP this week and would love to have a friend - feel free to add me. I am looking to loose 25ish by Thanksgiving. However, what I'm really looking for is being fit and the strength, energy, and stamina that comes with it. See you on the boards!

    hello, I'm 43. I just joined MFP about a week and a half ago. I have been having a rough day motivation wise and could really use more support. So I would love for you to add me. I am on everyday.

    Please add me as well! I am on here almost every day, at least 5 days a week. I am trying really hard to lose the weight. I am a FT Working Mom - 43; 2 kids. I go to Planet Fitness every day at 5am. I meet a few other WM's there. I get in about a 35-40 min work out. Then I try to walk about 1-1 1/2 miles at work. I know that my food choices are a huge problem. So I try to stay accountable with MFP. But my scale... not budging. Thank you!!
