Hello!! New and looking for friends :)

Hi!! I'm new to mfp! I'm 33 and wanting to lose 23kg (about 50lbs)!

I tried earlier this year to lose some weight, but didn't have much success, hoping that mfp will make me accountable and that 2015 will be the year I get to my goal weight :) I have sworn to myself to "never give up" this time! I know it wont be easy, but I wont let myself go another year and not get fit and healthy!

Looking for some friends to share the experience with. We can help support and motivate each other!

    I am looking to lose around the same amount of weight as well. Not giving up is the key (along with a solid plan of action). Good luck to you!

    I'm wanting to lose 50lbs as well! This is the longest I've ever been able to stay on track which I'm going on 7 weeks now. So determined to finally do it. We got this!

    I'm also new-ish. Been using mfp for about a month but have never utilized the message boards. I suppose some motivation, support and accountability can't hurt! Feel free to add me. I've yo-yo'd with Weight Watchers over the years and worked w/ various trainers only to get strong and on my way to fit and then not finish what I started. I'd like to lose 50 to start and reevaluate once I get there. Good luck!
