    Hi, I'm from Texas too, you will love it here. Everyone is very supportive and MFP makes losing weight easier that you can imagine. The more you log for exercise the more you can eat and you still lose, it's great.

    Thanks everyone!

    I have my goal weight loss as approx 45lbs because that's the magic number I have in my head...but I have talked to so many people who say 45 lbs is too much weight to lose for me....

    I'm 36 years old, 5'6" and I am at 180 now...I feel like I should be around 135. I've played softball for 26 years and have always been a runner, so I am relatively muscular...just a little flabby and not toned. Where can I find some sort of chart or idea of what weight I should focus on. ???

    Welcome to MFP! My first goal was 40lbs this year. When I turned 40 I finally decided to recommit myself to living healthy again. I'm on to my second goal of 20 more! The last 20 lbs have come much faster since I started I started using MFP. I think you'll enjoy the motivating people and the great tools on MFP. You can add me if you would like another friend.
