Hi everyone! I've only been a member of MFP for about 10 days and I'm looking for friends who have a similar profile to mine. I'm a 33-year old mom of a 21 month old kiddo living in the Seattle area. I'm approx 5'6" and weigh 190 lbs. I've had success dieting before with the help of a weight-loss team (doctor, dietician, & physical trainer) but have never done it myself. The least I've weighed in the past 15 years is probably 175 lbs and a size 14. My end goal is 155 lbs, which is the upper end of the "normal range" for a woman of my age & height.

I've lost 30 lbs already. I started my weight loss journey this time around back in November, but using a different site, but decided to jump ship to MFP after discovering the awesome food database here.

If there's anyone else out there with similar stats, I'd love it if you'd send me a friend request!

    Welcome to MFP!

    I do not meet a single one of your qualifiers, except for living in the Seattle area. I'm a little north of you, in Lynnwood. You can find some other locals here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/154604-pacific-northwest-peeps-look-here

    Goodluck with your goals! Even though our profiles don't match, I'd be happy to add some encouragement when needed and assist in any way I can.

    Again, welcome to MFP!

    Hi! I am Lesley 24 yrs, no children though i am a qualified child care worker :) my highest weight was 209 pounds, im down to 165 pounds. My goal is 145 pounds! I have done it all myself, i have been a little unfocused the last 2 months but we all get to those stages! I only found this site in March this year. Im from Australia. Not much in common but its hard to find great matches!
