I downloaded this app thinking my friend would join with me, but she is too busy. So I would like a friend that is similar to compete with. I once lost this same 45lbs on Weight Watchers, but there are no longer any meetings in my area and accountability seems to motivate me most.

    Hi tamilipham
    I am 54 and have lost 12 lbs in the last three weeks and have 46 to go. I have been on MFP off and on since 2012 but three weeks ago I finally got serious . I came home from vacation to find I weighed more then I ever had before. I agree that accountability is a key factor. Feel free to add me.

    You can add me! I'm a couple years older and would be happy to join you!! I have no friends here either!! In fact anyone who is trying to improve quality of life, please consider taking the ride with me. First I need to check settings as I just realized we could add people! Ha. Life on life's terms... Pfft! Let's take our lives back!!

    I'm 55 and still have quite a ways to go. You are welcome to friend me, just know that I don't care about competing. I'm only running this race for myself. Welcome to MFP!

    I'm 52 and trying to lose 20 lbs. This "phase" of life and working on dissertation has put 20 on and I have no clothes to wear. I've tried a lot of things but not over time. I need some accountability so I'm thinking this will help! Congrats to you all who are losing!!

    I've been here awhile. Same, mostly, age of all of you. I woke up one morning realizing I was going to be old but I didn't have to be a fat, old lady..... :smile:
    Friend me if you like.
