I'm 33, 5'4", and I have about 25-30 lbs I want to lose. I started MFP two weeks ago and would love to build a good support system on my venture to a healthier me. I've lost 4 lbs so far and am looking forward to reaching my first goal.

    Hi! I'm 38 and looking to lose 22 pounds. I just started really using MFP a couple of days ago because a friend wanted someone else to join. So I'm also looking for friends for support/motivation and stuff! If you want you can send my a friend request.

    Hello! My name is Winona, I am 26 years old 5'5 and need to loose 50lbs... I've been on MFP on and off for about a year now but it is my New Years Resolution to be serious about this 50lbs. I never added anyone or replied to a post in all the time I've been a member but now that I'm getting down to business I think the support would be great!

    Just like everyone else on here, I'm trying to make some changes and take the time to put me first again. My goal is to be able to catch my 8 year old son this year when we play tag in the yard. I've done Weight Watchers and got bored, so I need something new. Would love any support from others out there. We're not alone!
