Hi! New to the group!

Options
I have been clean eating for the last 2.5 years and lost about 10 lbs. I started walking about 4 miles a day almost 6 months ago. I've lost another 10 lbs, but am stuck. I'm a 42 y/o mom of 5 and regularly find myself tired and not feeling like doing the cardio I know will help kick start my weight loss. I need some energetic friends who will keep me motivated and competitive! Looking forward to making new friends!

    I don't eat clean, but I would love to add more friends to help with motivation! I am 44 and trying to lose 50 lbs. I am a mom of 1 crazy 9 year old and I want to set a better example for him.

    I have to ask, how much weight do you have left to lose to be where you need to be. It's sounds like you're doing so much right.

    Hey there. I'm almost 42 and mom of a 5 and 8 yr old. I am trying to lose 70 lbs. Ugh. Been doing this app for about 3 wks and do an elliptical 4 days a wk for 30 mins. Down about 6 lbs. I used to lose weight so much faster when I was young. Hard to stay with it or seems.

    Welcome! I am new here too. I am doing a not too strict Paleo diet for about 5 days now and it's not the struggle I thought it would be. I think MFP food journaling has made a big difference.

    Great job walking 4 miles a day! That is fantastic!!

    Hello! I will be turning 47 on Thursday. I am a stay at home mum with three girls (23, 6 and 3) I have a total of 20 lbs to lose but doing it 10 lbs at a time as I need to be down 10 by April 20 as I am scheduled for a hernia repair operation. We are a vegetarian family and for the most part, keep it pretty clean :smile: My challenge at the moment is getting back into an exercise routine. Had a good one going but alas, it has gone by the wayside. Friends are always welcomed
