I started MFP on Feb 9, and have been doing it alone - but am at the point where I would like to build a community around me! I am 39, currently a stay-at-home Mom (Speech Pathologist by trade), and got into some really bad habits when my little guys were babies....drinking coffee all day and not really eating anything at night. Since I have started MFP, the pounds are just melting away and I AM LOVING IT!!! Praying that I can keep my motivation HIGH and do this thing!!! My goal was to lose 30 pounds by May (my oldest daughter's graduation from High School) and I am going to reach that here pretty quickly. Overall, I would like to lose 70-80 and then re-evaluate from there.

Love this site, love reading all of the posts, and can't wait to get to know more of you!

    I haven't quite figured out this part of the site, but please add me if you want to help each other on this journey! It is a beautiful day here, so off to take the little guys to the park and enjoy the afternoon.
  • I am going to be 39 in June, and want to- I hope lose at least 30 pounds by then. We can help motivate each other! :)

    :bigsmile: I just joined MFP! I will be 35 in april and hope to lose 30 lbs by June 1st. I just started exercising and I am hoping the pounds will come off easily, but I sure miss my snack foods. Good luck to everyone :bigsmile:
