    I have been on MFP for quite a few years. recently "restarted" and most of my friends are dormant. I refuse to go into 50 like this. Anyone feel free to add me. I try to be as motivating as possible!

    I'm 43. I've been losing weight for the past 18 months. I was admittedly almost 20 stone after health issues. I have now lost 9 stone, but stuck now & the weight loss only seems to be slowly coming off :-(

    Hello I'm 40, and since January 2017 I managed to lose exactly 40lbs through cardio and strength training Monday through Friday and keeping my caloric intake under 1600 most days. It's an uphill battle and I have about 60lbs to go. Trust me I feel your pain.

    Hi everyone! I've been on my weight loss journey since a Feb 2016. I lost around 50lbs in a year. I have another 100 to loose. Not as much as I wanted but I'm still plugging along. I go down a bit then bounce up a tad and back down etc... I'm hear to help inspire everyone along with using that to keep me motivated. If you are looking to join a group check mine out. It's new. It's called Plus Size Individuals. community.myfitnesspal.com/en/group/120571-plus-size-individuals

    45 here, and a couple of months into round 3 here in MFP - 14 lb down, and still have about another 30 lb for ideal weight... Always welcome new friends who are in it to win it.

    Hi All! I'm "almost"46 lol. I'm 1 week into mfp but started my journey last July. I weighed in at 317.8 and am now 271.6. I had a few minor set backs with serious health issues, but I'm hoping they're behind me. Been going strong since the first week of March and feel better than I have in a long time. Here to give and get motivation and support!
