Hi! I'm a 40 yr old working mom who has struggled with weight all my life. I currently have 50 to 75 pounds to lose. I am back on MFP, back at the gym and have a personal trainer. I'm looking for more friends to share tips, advice, support, encouragement and motivation with on this long journey. Add me if you want to help each other out! :)

    I'm a 39 year old mom and have about 80 pounds to lose. I'm back here because, obviously, I can't do it on my own.

    I'm 42 struggling to lose about 30 but maybe more once I hit that! Was down in 2008 thought I'd never gain again but slowly I let it get back up and not happy how I see myself!! Would love to fit in all those clothes I bought back then!!

    @tanyaleelee To add someone from the post click on their name, a new box will come up. Click on their name again and you'll see the button for 'add as friend'. It'll send a request. Or under the "community tab" you'll see an option for 'find friends' type in the name then you'll see add as friend
