    I'm also 29 and 5'11. I've got two kiddos (3 yr old daughter, 2 yr old son). You must be pretty small framed with such a light goal!

    Feel free to add me. I will do my best to motivate you and help you stay on track! Take it easy, MFP is all about creating healthy habits rather than restrictions!

    I am a mom to two toddlers, feel free to add me. I started MFP at 242 lbs on January 7th of this year and I currently weigh 189... I am looking to get to 170 lbs right now. And "possibly" from there I may want to lose some more, but I will see when I get there.

    I would be happy to join you in your weight loss quest. I need lots of support too. I'm a mother of four (all in their 20s now). I'm 56 and weighed 190 at Christmas. I am now 170 so it's coming off slowly. Trouble is I love to eat and CRAVE potatoe chips. Especially ripple ones. I retired last July when my husband suggested I do so since he is also retired. My weight has gone up and down with diets over the past few years. I need to be around 150 ideally.
