Hi, I stated MFP in January, I am 40 and the mom of 3 kids..and started really well lost 13#'s right away..I gained some of those little buggers back (but only 3) but am on a quest to look and feel my best..I have good days and bad like we all do, but I am looking for people that maybe have the same weight loss goals as I do...I go to Zumba and another fitness class 2x a week..but my quest is to get to be a smoking hot momma! join me?

    Me too! I'd like to lose about 100 pounds (typing that hurt.). I've got two kids, and I want to be the best example I can be for them. Right now I am hitting the gym 5 days a week doing a mix of cardio everyday and whole body strength three times a week.

    Count me in!

    I would like to be included. I am 38. I'd like to weigh what my drivers license says... which would be a 82 pound difference. I have two teenage boys and a husband. I started working out 3 weeks ago and will weigh in at my doctor's office next week. Let's encourage each other.

    I'm in! I have over 100 to lose. I can't say that very often or I get discouraged just thinking about how much that really is. I can always use the support!

    I know..I don't like that number either...I would be happy with 75 (I think) I have a friend that I told my goal to, and she said that there wouldn't be anything left of me...I just told her that I hide my weight well..there is plenty to go around! haha

    Hi, count me in too, I have about 65-75lbs to go. Married with 4 children, 19, 17, 15 and the youngest who is 4 ! Its time to regain my life and feel good about myself...I am on approximately 1200-1400 calories a day and walk 2 miles every evening with one of my daughters.

    I am determined and realise this is a whole life change, my husband is very proud of me, so far its been 6 weeks and as I don't own a scale I am going by how my clothes fit and so far so good...think the tummy and hips could be an issue though ! ;)

    I am new to MFP and I am just wondering how all this posting works. How will I be able to find everyone tomorrow? Do we share emails or just post in a group forum like this one each day? Thanks in advance for the info.
