My name is Jamie and I have been on MFP for a little over a week. I am just beginning my weight loss journey. My best.friend also signed up with me and I know that we would love the support from anyone who would want to be friends and help us along the way. I am 32 and 5'7" and need to lose 40+ lbs. I currently weigh 199lbs and need to weigh around 148-153lbs.
