Hello! I just started using MFP yesterday (4-4-12) and I'm already in love with it! I am a mother of 3 and my youngest is 9 months old, so I still have baby weight to lose. I never thought about counting my calories until I started noticing I wasnt losing weight even though I had been working out. Problem was, I was consuming more calories then I was burning! Now Im on the right path to a hot and fit body! I would love to make friends who can help me reach my goals (and I you!) Good luck with your weight loss goals and lets be friends!

    I am a little older....in my 50's, but would love to have friends through this site! I have 50lbs to loose and I just started really trying to do everything right yesterday. (04/04/12). In my case, we have raised our three sons, and now I want to keep up and have fun with our 2 Grandsons and our new Grand-daughter to be born in August! I am so excited, I can't wait! Anyway, sure need the support and the friendship! Good luck and I think this site will be such a help! I feel so positive about this, and that seems to be half of the battle!

    I've been using mfp for 6 weeks and I love it! I've lost a total of 9 inches and am amazed at how much better I eat! I've always been heavy, and even with chasing a nine year old around to all his sports and playing softball myself something else had to work because those things werent! Since starting I've joined a gym which I go to at least 5 days a week, and my eating habits are so much better. I really enjoy some of the daily positive notes I get from people using mfp- it helps knowing I have a great support system on here and at home! Best of luck to you on your new journey! Feel free to add me!
