Hi everyone, my name is Jennifer, I'm 33 years old (duh, my profile says that heeheee) ;D. I just joined this group today, but have been an MFP member since April 2011. I joined the military soon after graduating high school (I must admit I was in the best shape of my life). It all kinda went downhill after I got out lol. I recently finished my B.A. in Theater Arts with a minor in business. I'm out in the job market and as a matter of fact, I'll be spending the first week of 2012 in airports and job interviews. I'm hoping this will be a good year for me. It's nice to meet everyone and feel free to add me

Hi there. My name is Melissa. I'm on the cusp of my 34 birthday (in February) and struggling with the idea of being "old". I am a part-time RN at a small rural hospital, a full time mom of 3 active kids (12, 4 and 2 - 2 girls and a boy), married for 6 years. I am just starting to come around to the idea that I need to take care of "me" before I can take care of "them". So here I am at MFP looking for some support from people in the same boat.
I'd love to be involved in some challenges if they are up and coming and I never turn down the offer of friendship if people are looking for support and an occassional shoulder to lean on.
Happy New Year to you all!

Hello all! Just turned thirty about a month ago. My husband and I were married this past summer and now I'm trying to get down to a good healthy weight so we can seriously think about having a baby. I know, sounds crazy to want to lose it before I get pregnant, but the healthier you are before you're pregnant (and are able to keep up that healthiness) the easier it is to get back there, or at least close to it.

I'm a teacher and a dancer. I just dance on the weekends and take classes during the week when I have the time, but sometimes school work gets the best of me. This year is looking pretty busy for me and I've got to find a way to make it through in one piece!

Wish me luck!

Good luck Meaghan I totally understand as my husband and I want to have children this year but I want to lose the weight before then, also since we have to do ivf this will give us a greater chance at conceiving.

:drinker: HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!! Everyone calls me Mo. I'm 38, single, never been married and I have a 20 year old daughter. I'm 6'1" and I am looking forward to meeting more people so I can have others to share in my weight loss journey. I'm hoping to lose 50 pounds or more by the end of the year.

Hi! I'm 31 and I live in Tucson. I recently found myself gaining weight and wanted some motivation! I'm a mom of a 9 year old boy and recently (March 2010) got together with my one and only true first love! I couldn't be happier, now I want my reflection to match how I feel! I look forward to meeting other people!

Greetings everyone in my age bracket! I'm Robin aka Six. I just turned 37 in early December. I've been married for almost 13 years and have five beautiful little ladies ages 3-13. I started my weight loss journey officially on January 16, 2011. I had lost 37 lbs, but ended up gaining a few of those back recently. I'm not going to dwell on it because overall, I am far healthier now then I was when I started last year. This year, I am more determined than ever to get the rest of my weight off of me.

A big welcome to all of you new to this forum. Let's make some changes together this year!

Hi! Just found this group and excited to meet some cool 30-somethings I'm 37 and live in SC. I've struggled with weight forever and the past year, I've gotten really serious and lost a lot, but the last couple of months I've been STUCK!! Starting a juice fast and hopefully the numbers will start going down again! Can't wait to meet you guys. Feel free to friend me

Amazing loss, 123 pounds is no small feat.

Thank you! Only 90ish more to go LOL

Hello! I am new to MFP, but it seems fantastic! I am at my heaviest weight yet - Ughhh! My husband also just joined MFP and is a great supporter. He does not need to lose as much as I do. It drives me nuts that he loses twice as fast as I do and gets back in the swing of it soooo much easier. He could run a half marathon after a month training! Very proud of him, but I cringe when we compare. I will whine, but I will definitely keep him!

My job has just had a change and I travel Mon-thursday. I really do not like it, but I am riding it out. It is only temporary (well, 2 year temporary with one year down). So I depress eat or late night binge because we work long days and nights. Glad to find the group for support especially when on the road.

Happy Healthy 2012. Friend me if you need support and we can do this together!

I'm 31 , 32 in may , 30's definitely best age bracket so far! Never been married. No kids, No pets, No boyfriend and now I'm going for No excess body fat!

Hello I am married with two kids who is committed to getting healthier.

hey everyone, I just turned 30 in October and I want to be healthier in this decade than I was in the last one! I would like to lose 50-60 pounds by my 31st birthday. I'm fairly new to this site, looking for some friends to motivate me!

YAY!!! So glad I found this group I was just thinking about starting a 30-something topic and figured I should do a "search" first. And here I am!!!

My name is Jenn, I'm 33 years old and will be turning 34 in April. I am a single mom to the most beautiful little girl (3 1/2 years old) and a new addition to the family, out 5 month old kitten. I've always been on the bigger side of things but the post-pregnancy bulk put me over anywhere I had ever been.

Last year I started running for the first time in my life and ran my first 5k in June. After that, I let myself slip again and now I'm back to do it right this time. I hate the back and forth of being motivated and then completely losing momentum so even though I slipped, I never let go of MFP. I honestly believe it is this site, and moreso the people on here, that are going to take me to where I want to be.

I'm not going to lie, the 30's have been rough. And at some points, it's absolutely sucked. But I want to not only improve my physical self but also my mental self. Looking forward to getting to know you all!!!

Join the club! My husband switched from sweet tea to half sweet/unsweet and loses 5 pounds in one week. Some dudes are just lucky!

Welcome!
