    Welcome to the group. All the guys are pussycats, but the girls are a bit sketchy.

    I'm new, Just a little sheep, looking to shed a few pounds of wool. I am not really fat, I'm just wooly :) I live in NH. I am doing the Diet Free Life, 21 day challenge, only lost half a pound this week. Its not my fault, it was that Turkey that did it. He said he was good for me, but forgot to tell me about his pals, potato, stuffing and pumpkin pie. Oh well now I am off to a new start, with tracking this time. Have a great day.

    Welcome aboard :)

    Thanks for the welcome, this looks like a nice group. Good Night everyone, this little sheep is going to bed and not to count sheep, I like to read. But it is 10.30 PM HERE.

    Actually, I'm a bit more into painting right now rather than sketching...just saying...

    Welcome to all the new folks!

    Just joined this group. I'm 59, seeking to be healthy. I am a runner, Half Marathons. I am a cyclist, riding in several 100K and 100 mile rides each year. I have a blog at http://wholelivingafter50.com I hope to be an encourager and to be encouraged by this group. My goal is 158 lbs. I'm at 178. I just started using MFP, and have logged for 23 days straight. I had logged for 7 days prior to a week where I was out of the country, and was unable to log in. I have been seeking to lose weight since August 2017, because I noticed how out of shape I was and how overweight I was. I am 5'7" tall with a small to medium frame. Hope all of you keep up the journey to healthier lives.

    Hi - I followed mz Ann and Mk over here from the maintainers section. Nice to find yall. I am Bonney from Texas. 59 and counting. Seem like a very nice group. We all sure have our challenges as we get a little older but seems like "with a little help from our friends" we can succeed at whatever we put our minds too. As I have always said in tennis matches "age and craftiness (and a good drop shot) beats youth and exhuberance 99.99% of the time".

    OMG!! I just saw the new HUG icon. That must have been the software updated that hosed MFP talking to Fitbit. But it's sweet. Thank you.

    Yeah, looks like they just renamed the "Awesome" icon (which makes some old post look strange with all the "Hug"s). That small change shouldn't have hosed the Fitbit link like it did.

    Not really a huggy type of guy. :/ But I liked to give awesome dues. "Like" is OK but "Awesome" was... well, awesome!

    RIP "Awesome" :'(

    Though I posted a question, I don't think I introduced myself. I'm married, 4 kids & 8 grand kids. I'm 48 lbs down & 10 to go. Stopped exercising due to heart irregularity due to a medication which i have since stopped taking. I haven't gained any weight but haven't lost more either because I didn't adjust calories to lower setting but for now I'll leave it, it being winter & eating more hot foods.

    Hey all! I’m new to this group thing too! I’m 52, with high cholesterol and 30-40 extra pounds. Trying to eat better and get my lazy butt back to the gym next week. Used to do Weight Watchers but some friends and I decided to use MFP! Gotta stick with it!
