    Hi my name is Valerie. I am a 52 year old women happily married and retired living in PEi Canada. I joined mfp about a year ago and lost 10 pounds and then quit logging in and in the last year I have gained five pounds back. I have recently started playing golf and I love it! Except that I hate that I can feel all the extra weight I am carrying, and I don't mean my clubs! I weigh 225 and my goal is to reach 140. I was actually at this goal weight about five years through diet and exercise, but then I met my Prince Charming who wined and dined me! Four years later it is time to quit! The over eating that is, I will keep the Prince! I would love some Mfp friends to join in this journey together :)

    Sounds like a good idea! My name is Angela, 35 and I've been on MFP on and off for a few years and could never really commit because of my busy life. I now have a beautiful little 2 year old girl and trying to put myself first is the hardest. I also have pcos and would like another child but alot of it depends on weight loss. I'm really struggling to lose weight...would like to lose 30-40 and could use any motivation! I would love to cheer all of you on as well!

    Hey I'm Lisa. I'm 25, from Georgia. I lost 55 lbs about 4 years ago then gained it all back plus some. Now I'm 21 lbs down since July! I decided enough was enough and I am ready to reach my goal this time. I can always use more motivational/encouraging friends! I try my best to be a motivational friend as well.

    First of all, sorry if you find my English little bit disturbing.. It is because I don't know much English. So Pardon me if I make some horrible mistake.

    I am from Karachi, Pakistan. I just recently weigh myself and I was shocked to see 200 lbs on the weight machine. So I decided to change my lifestyle. I have lost 12 pound in last month but this month is going little tough. I lost 2 pounds only compared to last month progress it is little depressing. From last two days I started eating normal meals and feels very demotivated seeing my progress.

    So today, I decided to take some help from this app myfitnesspal, the people on this forum seems very motivated and losing weight too. So I think I would be less demotivated if I join this forum.

    Please feel free to add me, because I need some friends who are losing weight so we can motivate each other whenever we feel like leaving the weight loss program.

    Hi I am Meagan and am 28 years old, currently living in Tennessee. I have struggled with weight all my life. I recently started going to a medical weight loss clinic and have lost 33 lbs in 9 weeks, but still have close to 100lbs to go. I have a son who is 8 years old and want to expand my family soon. I love to exercise but I have a hard time making time for it, between my full time job, 2 hour commute to and from work, taking care of the house, cooking dinner, and helping my son with his homework, and baseball. Just seems like there is always something more pressing to do. Usually I will work out on my lunch hours at the gym, and when I can't get to the gym I walk my dogs around the block several times.

    I am determined to go all the way this time and keep it off!!! I feel so much better already and am much much happier. I feel my confidence and self esteem growing every day. I also see the impact that my good choices are making on my friends and family. I have never been a runner and hope to get to where I can run miles, right now I only jog for about a couple of minutes. I am seriously considering walk/jogging in a 5k for the Susan Komen race for the cure. It will be my first ever. I injured my ankle back in May and will probably be having an MRI done on it soon, because it isn't getting better, so hopefully that won't keep me from participating in that.

    Anyways I am looking for friends to encourage me and help me when I am having "low" times, and I will do the same for you. Add me, please, thanks!

    Great thread! I'd rather not say my name. I'm turning 26 in 6 days (yikes). I've lost 25 lbs already and I have another 65ish lbs to go. I've got two adorable daughters and really need to get this weight off so I can play with them without getting tired after 2 minutes.

    Hi! I am a mom of one. I am currently 163 lbs (5 lbs lost so far!). I have restarted my weight loss journey several times now. I am hoping this is the last time! I am currently doing the 21 Day Fix workouts (not the meal plan). I am watching what I eat and watching my portions. It seems to be working so far.

    Feel free to add me!

    Hi I'm Beth, I'm 25 and I live just outside Glasgow. I've always been big, and I got down to my lowest weight of about 13st 10lbs last year but I've put it all back on and more!!

    I'm in final year of a Social Work degree and that coupled with working shifts has meant my eating habits have been all over the place. It would be nice to join some like minded people for a bit of support and inspiration! Feel free to add me :)

    Just plodding along, hoping to maybe lose 6lbs by end of October when I participate in my 2nd Marathon, long term goal to be content with my body and complete a triathlon whether it be standard, half ironman or full ironman distance.

    Howdy!
    :)

    Benita, 24, Texas.
    I've lost 17 lb so far, looking to lose (rough estimate since I've never been small..) another 30-35 lbs but that could change as I go on. I understand that the number on the scale is not necessarily indicative of how someone will look due to BF% and so as I gain muscle and lose fat I'll be ok with a higher weight as long as I'm happy with how I look.
    :)

    I'm into lifting weights, and I run for most of my cardio days. Hoping to be able to complete a 5K eventually, and I also want to do some sort of obstacle course for fun at some point.

    I vant to have maahsuls. (In my best Arnold voice, hahaha.)

    I'd also very much like to delve into pole, parkour, and crossfit. What can I say, I've got lofty ambitions.

    :D

    P.s.- I'm one of those crazy folks who don't think it's a sin to have ice cream or a taco, as long as I fit it in my daily allowance.
    Just fair warning.
    :P
