I'm 43, very married, love my pets and am looking for friends who are consistent in posting/communicating and want to chat as we are on this journey together. People who are interested in being open and honest about their trials and triumphs.
I'm an emotional eater. I've been a consistent user of MFP for close to 2 months now. It helps bc i know I'll need to log what i eat and it makes me rethink my choices. And I know I'll need to log my meals for life to keep me healthy. I've lost weight in the past but gained back as soon as I stopped using my apps. I have 50lbs to lose. My starting weight was 255. I'm currently at 247.
I need to lose bc my liver enzymes are up but also I need to build muscle mass and increase stamina. I'm focused on nutrition and light exercise as i have a spinal cord issue. I'd like to be able to walk through hiking trails in nature with my husband and my dog.

How about you? What are your goals and why?
Feel free to add me as a friend or msg me!

: about my dog:
Archie is 18months old, a black goldendoodle. He is a rescue pet and only has 3 legs. He's spunky and energetic and keeps me on my toes!

    Hi, I'm 41 rom Indiana. I have 3 dogs, also like hiking. I live close to a state park which is great. I'm an emotional eater as well. Also looking to lose 50 pounds. I was recently diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and I'm hoping losing the excess weight will help relieve some of the joint pain.

    I'm still learning the ins and outs of the community sides of this app.
