Hello Everyone! I'm Katie turned 20 in May. I live in Missouri. I'm a full time college student with a part time job. I absolutely love music and reading. I'm pretty new to the site so I would love more friends to help be along this weight loss journey. 59 pounds to go!

HI,

Im Cynthia 27 years old 28 next month and live in San Jose,Ca about 45 from San Francisco. I have been on MFP since January 2011 and have lost 50 lbs need 7 more lbs to hit my goal weight and 12 lbs for my UGW! I am also a new runner about 6 months or so and recently started weight training!

Seems like we have lots of new people and some men as well, Good Luck to all!! :bigsmile:

What can we say, Men have pants to get into as well

This thread wasn't a group before but now has become a group and we never had any men so it's nice to see everyone on here and yes men can have the same issue I know!!

We've had a few men come and go, but never any that stayed steadily from month to month...

I think all the talk of kids, pregnancy and TOM scared 'em off :laugh: JK!

A big welcome to the men as well! It's great to have some testosterone flying around these here boards once in a while! Please, make yourself at home!

Haha this is funny. I have a son hes almost two hes a beast. been apart of the pregnancy with my fiancee and nothing worse than a pissed off Irish women. funny I found this on my phone. I got instantly addicted. Sometimes people you deal with day to day don't understand what a pain in the *kitten* this changing your lifestyle is. MFP is a lot of like minded people and its great bouncing ideas off and the support is awesome. I have lost around 9 pounds and I have 11 to go for my first goal. Add if you like .
Cynthia I Am also from san jose. Hilarious 45 min from sf same description I used. Have a great day all.

A little bit about me...

My name is Jennelle Yopchick, I'm 27 years old living in Boston with my boyfriend John of 10 years and our two kids...err I mean cats (I always forget there's a difference). I'm currently finishing my PhD at Northeasten University in Experimental Psychology. I recently just began my dream job working in the health and fitness industry, helping people to lose weight through a science-based weight management program while simultaneously teaching fitness classes! I am just in the training phase for this dream job while finishing school, but am LOVING everything I'm learning about nutrition and fitness and will definitely be sharing lots of info with you all!

I lost 30 lbs in 2009 and joined MFP last April to help maintain and shed the few pounds I've gained back over the last three years. I'm on track and kicking *kitten*!!!

I find a lot of joy in both helping other people and learning as much as I possibly can from them - I hope if you're reading this you'll become one of those people in my life very soon

It looks like the group has come to a total stand still these days. What do you folks think? Stick with the group or head back to the discussion threads for good?

Let me know! December is quickly approaching...

Hi everyone- My name is Lindsey, I'm 24 (turning 25 in January) and I'm overweight Overtime I just gained so much weight and its gotten out of control so here I am on MFP trying to lose weight.

Hi everyone! My name is Lindsey ,I'm 25 years old, and I live in Virginia Beach. I joined MFP a while ago, but just started really getting serious about it a couple of months ago. I've lost about 35 lbs since 2008 and have been losing and gaining the same 5 lbs for about 6 months now. My goal is to lose 15-20 lbs and tone before my wedding in April. I'm slightly, okay very, obsessed with success stories. I'm determined to post my own one day. I have a horrible tendency of going hard and then slacking off. I can use all the help/support I can get!
