Hi....Looking for a few friends to offer support and encouragement. I'm 47 married with 3 adult kids, and one of my children, my son convince me it was time that I seriously try to get in shape and to get healthy, and he's doing it with me. Of course we just started going to the gym 3 weeks ago, and he is helping me a lot, but it is still lacking since he seems to be dropping the weight much faster then I am. I have just started using this site, but my weight loss started almost two years ago. My initial weight was 243 lbs, and when I started going to the gym my weight is 212 lbs, but I am hoping that at the end of this journey that I will be weighing in around 130 to 135 lbs. I have a long way to go.

42. Not really trying to lose weight, but be healthy. Trying to avoid that day when people think my wife is my daughter. We had kids later than most, 6 and 3 year old. Want to be healthy for the rest of our lives to be grandparents (after our kids have graduated from college and graduate school).
Do a mix of cross training, orange theory, and boxing. Job is very stressful and often chaotic. Exercise is an outlet.0 -

Hello All, looking for friends and motivation. I am 48, married with four children in a blended family now (mostly) grown, four beautiful granddaughters. Trying to get back in shape after a scare with the cardiologist. I am blessed that my husband works at a university so I have access to great work-out facilities, and I am going 3-4 days a week, plus attend a weekly yoga class. Beginning weight 2 months ago was 189, now down to 185 with 30 more pounds to go. I've just started using this site, along with a Garmin Vivofit HR to log steps. I am a teacher, so getting the 10,000 steps the cardiologist says I need is not hard on workdays. Weekends are another issue! Please add me, I would love new friends!0 -
I love new friends

Hi. I'm 47, married, 2 adult children. I've recently recommitted to MFP. I'm tracking but not so precisely that I weigh my 1/2 banana. I workout in the early am using moderate weights 6 days a week and go to the gym in the evenings 4-5 days a week to build my cardio. I'd like to start getting more serious about lifting weights. I'm currently around 160 and have 24% body fat. I'd love to have friends here to support and be supported by.0

I'm 46, married- two little peeps, 5 and 8- 4 dogs- a cat- a leopard gecko- and two finches- live in Kansas- from Oregon and missing my NW. I'm 5'8" and currently weigh 230- I'd like to see the other side of 200- ideally eventually see 160- so I have a ways to go. I'm a curvey girl so i hold my weight pretty evenly. Below 160 I look emaciated. I've been off here since 2012- and have maintained the same weight since- with exception of a year ago I got down to 212 and I was on a roll and then fell- tore my rotator cuff tendon. Bone cracked in half in surgery... (June 6th, 2015) so it has been a long a** recovery and I'm just now feeling "good" physically but my motivation... not so much.0

I have been using MFP for quite a while now. I love it. I am not always 100% with it but I think its a great way to keep things in check with what you put in your mouth. I love how it links with my Fitbit. I have to say at the end of the day sometimes those free calories Fitbit adds back in make it ok to wind down with that wine. Am I alone on this one?
I love seeing action in my news feed. It just encourages me to log in every day. Please add me if you wish.
I am a 43, Female, married with a 12 year old son. My life is built around my son. I was a wild one until he was born and now a total home body. I hate to even grocery shop. But I stay very active with workouts and walking. Recently I have started to run and am very proud of myself. It took 2 summers to accomplish a full mile. Just this week I ran 6 miles in 60 minutes. Everything is possible my friends. Never give up. If you fall you stumble forward and move on.
Add me, new friends are always welcome.0 -
Hi Everyone I am new to MFP and I am looking for some weight loss buddies for support. In my late 40's and the numbers keep going up on the scale as I get older. I have a desk job and they pretty much chain you butt to your desk all day and the workload is crazy so I know the stress does not help as when I get home I am emotionally drained. I got a UP Move tracker last week and am determined to increase my steps daily. I hope to meet some cool people with the same goals. Please feel free to add me as a friend 0
