    Okay, checking in today. Body fat measurements are according to my electronic scale, which probably isn't very accurate, but it can show if it is dropping or not.

    Sunday 12/25/16: 166.2 lbs (starting weight) 30.8% body fat
    Sunday 1/1/17: 163.0 lbs 30.1% body fat

    Update 1/1/17: Since I have been off of work I have been a lot more active then usual. So my deficits are higher then they normally will be. I am also tweaking my micronutrient profile to see what works best. I think I do best at 15% carbs / 50% fat / 35% protein but I am still experimenting with these numbers. I am still doing Sundays are my day off days. I "carb-load" those days, in other words, eat pasta, bread, everything I don't allow my self during the week. I love Sundays, but it also gives me even more reason to hate Mondays.

    This group is a perfect fit for me! I'm 52 years old and have gained 50 of my 80 lb weight loss. I'm so frustrated with menopause weight gain. I need all the help I can get! My current weight is 200 and my goal is 150. If anyone would like to friend me I would appreciate it for accountability! :smile:

    Hi! I'm a 52-year old woman who is also in need of losing 30 to 35 lbs (at least) and would love to join you. :) I'm not new to MFP but it's been a while. How does this work? Do I just keep coming back to this post? May I add you as a friend so we can easily keep tabs on each others journey? Thanks!

    Julene64 I sent you a friend request!

    I am in. It's been a long time since I've been on MFP. Is this all I have to do to join a challenge or is there more to it?

    I am at my heaviest non-pregnant weight. Before my first pregnancy, February 2014, I was 165lbs. Now, two babies later, I am 233. My 2nd baby was born in April. I need to do this for my sons.

    Hello, please count me in, too! 44 yo mum of 4, I want to lose at least 30lbs. Never dieted, am clueless! I bought myself a Leaf fitness tracker, so 10k steps a day is a start for me. And the food diary, oh dear I eat more than I thought! Am also doing Veganuary, so lots of veggies for me!

    I would love to be part of this. My oldest child is getting married in June (the last one to do so) and even though I have 80 to lose, I'd love to have 30 down by then. I am 53, will be 54 next week and need support and friends. Looking forward to making new friends.

    Looking for likeminded friends on here, I'm 53 mum of five, looking to lose these last few pounds ( 10 at least). Only 5ft tall which doesn't help, so any gain shows instantly!!
    Please feel free to add me as a friend will encourage and support.

    I found a program that I really hope works. I have literally done every diet in the world.

    I log everything into this app.

    So far so good. T

    Well today I didn't do bad on food. But I just can't get in more than 5000 steps. I'm going to calibrate my phone I hope it's wrong. Lmao
