    Hi, I'm 45 years old, female, wife and mom, musician, and breast cancer survivor. I am 44 lbs down with about 50 more to go. I log my food every day and lift heavy weights with my hubby 4 times a week. It is my passion. I desire friends who have open diaries so that I can get ideas and learn from all of you. Looking for a few more friends!

    Hi everyone!

    I'm Kathy. I am 26 years old from Northern VA and currently on a weight loss re-start. I have gotten to goal weight before (actually twice) but like many of us, sometimes regains happen. So I am here looking for others to buddy up with with similar goals as mine. My weight goal is get to a healthy weight which means about 70-80 pounds to drop.

    I also lost my Dad to obesity (will be a year at the end of the month) so this restart means more than ever to me.

    Just wanted to say hi and I am looking for "support connections" here on MFP! I have gained about 80 pounds over the last 2 years from Lupus meds and 2 accidents - fractured ankle and then knee surgery. With a mom & aunt who were both diabetic and knowing that I am addicted to chocolate, I have gone with a No Sugar motivational theme and that means limiting the sugar and includes focusing on a low carb diet.

    Week 1 was pretty good in that it showed me how I indulge when I am bored or worried and how I eat way too few calories when I am busy and content.

    Hey Everyone!
    I'm a 27 year old single mom of one. I'm a full time student, employed full time, super busy and pretty new to MFP. I found that with my divorce and adjusting to being a new mom I put on far too much weight and have had a hard time getting it off with my very busy life. I had been doing weight watchers for the past couple of months and successfully lost 30 pounds before discovering MFP about a week ago. I've been logging in consistently and cancelled my WW membership. I like this so much better! I lost 4 pounds the first week of doing this! I am eager to meet new people and support one another...anyone feel free to add me

    Hi all, I'm almost 40, down almost 70 pounds (more actually, but that's from when I started counting), and have another 35-40 to go. I was losing very steadily but I stalled out and even put on a few pounds this past month. I would love friends.

    Hello...I'm a 30 years old mother, wife, everything else, and a yo-yo MFP user (so sad to admit) but I'm back and fully committed to sticking to it th is time. I've lost, gained, and searched for those pounds, lost again, and they found me again too, lol. I'm working to lose at least 60 pounds and keep it off and would love to add those that are looking for some e-motivation and looking to provide some e-motivation as well! It takes a village...we can do this together!

    Hi~

    I'm 34 and work from home which is kind of what got me into this situation. A lot of sitting around and way too much snacking on junk foods. I'm learning to live a new lifestyle. I love to cook and bake and would love to find some friends to swap new and healthier recipes with and to motivate eachother. I'm big on walking for exercise. My goal loss would be 50 lbs but I'm counting every pound down as a victory.
