Hi, I am hoping this group will accept me I am 40 yrs old 5' 8" and 292 I know it does not quite meet the 300+ but, I feel like I have more in common with this group than the 200+ or other groups. I am looking to get into the 150 ish range so I need to loose about half my current body weight. Please don't make me gain eight more pounds to get into the group :) . I am an artist I do body painting, special FX makeup and costume design so my schedule is weird I have moments of intense work and then down time. This really messes with getting on any type of scheduled routine with food or exercise. I am looking for a few friends who can help me along the way. People who have lost already or people who are noobs like me who would like a group of people to help with motivation and accountability. Also my weakness is snacking and a serious Coke (a Cola) addiction. Please send me a friend request if you are interestedin being buddies :D

    Of course you can be in the group! I started at 325, but I am also under the 300 mark now. You have come to the right place. MFP has tons of positive and helpful people that can help you along the way.

    Vaunche welcome. I'm. Sure u will be welcome here. I have a crazy schedule and understand.
  • Good afternoon Vaunche, welcome to the group. I haven't been on MFP that much because of the holidays. Normally I try to read and post everyday. So, it will be great to follow someone else in their journey. Happy New Year.
