Hello all! I am a 42-year-old wife and mother of two teen-aged girls. I am at my heaviest weight (175 lbs) and am tired of feeling heavy. I need some motivation and encouragement to increase my physical activity and be more selective about the foods I eat. I am noticing health changes and want to live a healthier life. I am anxious to learn the site and possibly meet some people to visit with in my journey!

    Hello! You are off to a good start here! I just lost my first 3 lbs in a week! I think the accountability and the online calorie counter helped me do it. It can work for you too! Add me if you like. I'm 51 and near your weight as well. Let's take the journey for better health.

    Welcome to MFP! This is only the beginning. The journey ahead of you will take many paths, and will sometimes be rocky, muddy, curved or have uphill climbs or downhill spirals, but there will be many more straight, wonderfully clear, wide open paths along the way! Don't get discouraged, just remember that after a bump in the road, it is always smooth! Best wishes too you!
    I am 49 years old, and have lost 39# so far. I am about 1/2 way to my goal, healthy weight!

    Please feel free to add me as your friend! I am on here a lot!
