I'm 45 with 3 children & live in Australia - so please friend me :D
Cheers

    Would love to cheer you on!! Where in Oz do you live? I lived there for only 6 months, mainly I was staying on Bondi Beach in Sydney, but travelled up and down the east coast and loved every minute of it there! You Aussies are great!!!

    Hi, I'm new as well. I am 197 lbs with 50 to lose but I plan to take it off slowly so I don't know how much motivation I will be... my calorie goal is pretty respectable at 1800 for now. :) Anyway, feel free to friend me if you need some support.

    welcome to MFP! this is a great site to stay motivated. I started on 1/1 at 210 with the goal to lose 70lbs as well. 7 1/2 weeks later and i only have 45lbs left to lose. who knew that watching calories, exercise, and support would help you lose weight ;) good luck to you!
