Hi, I've been on MFP since 2011, but only recently have tried connecting to "friends". Hoping it can increase my accountability. I am 49 years old and 213 lb. I have slowly increased my weight over the years. Need to make some changes and would like some support.

if you can relate friend me!

    You got this! Feel free to send me a friend request. I'm a Certified Personal Trainer and Certified Weight Loss specialist. I started tracking again to really lock things in so feel free to take a look at my food diary. The important thing is figuring out the proper caloric deficit for you to lose weight without destroying your metabolism. Always happy to help

    I too am 49 and have about the same goals in mind. I have just started yesterday with this program and am seeing results right away. So far so good. I know I shouldn't weigh myself everyday but it keeps me on track and motivated. Good luck on your journey.

    I'm new here too. I'm 45 and now weigh 270. Dr said I need to lose this weight because she's afraid of my heart going bad. If you can do this,then maybe I can too. Please send me a friend request.

    Hi! I created my account few years ago but it was not the right moment for me. Now I can say that I've never been so motivated to improve my healt, so feel free to add me as friend if you want. We can do this together :smile:
