Hey everyone! It seems everywhere I look there is a group for 20's somethings, a group of mom 's with younger kids, a group of with a certain amount of weight to lose, a group of 5'5" members, etc. I don't necessarily fit into any of those groups. I'm just your average mid-40 gal, 5'6" looking for a group of motivating 40 somethings to help motivate each other!

Interested??

    Hello there. I'm 44 and would love to be a positive, supportive, motivating friend. I joined MFP in January of 2011 looking to lose about 120 pounds. I'm down 84 pounds so far.

    Hi guys. I noticed the same thing. I have been on here for a month now and I am really enjoying the site.

    I am 46, 5-6 3/4" (sometimes I lie and say 5'-7") and I need to lose about 130 pounds. I expect it to take me two or three years. When I was 33, I lost 92 pounds in 5 months, and then put it all back over the next 3-4 years. Last year I lost 38 pounds and then gain 30 of it back by the end of the year. I am finally committed to a whole new "lifestyle" and I am confident it will stick this time. My husband and family are joining me this time as we totally change up our diet.

    I would love to be here to encourage and support others as I continue on my long journey ahead.
