    So, I am new to this, obviously. Haha :laugh: Anyway, I have a A LOT of weight I want to lose. I am scared I will not be able to do it. I have a small bone structure but am not small. I was up until I stopped playing sports. Oh and I had my beautiful little girl in january of this year. I would love to meet people close to me in distance, or weight, or age, or even someone that has a kid around my daughters age. I just want to be understood. Anyyyywho, thanks for listening! :blushing:

      Hello we got a few things in common. I am 23 and have a six month old son I also have a 2 year old son. I don't have as much weight to lose but I am still up there. I gained most my weight once I started birth control and then more having kids. I want to get at least to 140 before i have my last. Hopefully then it will be easier to lose after that baby. If you want we can be friends just add me.

      Hi there! I live in Cali too (bay area).

      I weighed 252.8lbs June 08 and now I'm down to 183lbs.
      I am 22 years old (23 on July 5th!)

      I've lost 68lbs! I know you can too! Good luck!:bigsmile:

      Hi to everyone. I just started MFP an really excited! I have been working on watching my calories manually for both my husband and myself since April. When I found this site, I was in HOG HEAVEN...all computerized and no guessing espeically if eating out. LOVE IT! Plus, I can log excerise too with special notes. I can see what I have burned as far as working out and calories consumed for the day and progress. I started my husband on it too. I am approaching the last 5-8 pounds...the hardest. I am having a hard time staying focused...want ice cream! Anyway, this is a huge help and has gotten me re-focused. I also think it will be easy for my hunny to use while I am gone. If he can actually see numbers, I think he will keep with it instead of sneaking the pizza.

      PS: Ashley, your daughter is cute.

      Everyone GOOD LUCK!!

      Cheers:drinker: :drinker:
