My sister turned me on to this site and I have been doing it for a couple of days now. I love it. I lost 60 pounds five years ago and work hard to keep it off. Right now I have an extra 10 that I gained since school started. I am 40 years old and have been married to my best friend of the the last 5 years for almost 1 year. I spent most of my adult llife weighing around 230 pounds. I do not want to do that anymore so right now I am struggling with the 10 pounds but I have no plan to stop there. I would really like to lose 25.

    I'm like you - I'm new and I've struggled with weight all my life. I'll add you, too. Hopefully we can motivate each other!

    Hi and welcome to MFP. I discovered the iPod application in December and joined up in January (as you do!) I turn 40 this year and I was lucky to met someone really special 2 years ago. We are both trying to loose a good few pounds, but it can be hard at times, with kids and work, so I know how you feel. This site is fab, lots of inspirational people all with stories and different reasons for wanting to loose weight, you will never feel alone. Please feel free to add me as friend. Good luck with your weight loss, I'm sure you will reach your goal in no time. x

    Hi there....I am new to this as well, I just joined yesterday. I'm in my early 40's & have been 230lbs for the past 10yrs or so & I'm also tired of being this size. In my head I feel like I'm 130ish pounds so for years I just ignored it, but I'm not getting any younger & I really want to do this for me. I am soooo thrilled that there is a site like this that will track everything for you. I tried LA Weight Loss but I just hated have to write everything in a book, weigh all my food, & have to drive to see them twice a week.

    I really think I can really make this work.....Good Luck to you :-)
