    Please feel free to add me...looks like I'm coming from where you started.
    I'm 44 with two teenaged daughters and a desk job, as well.
    Have really amped up my workouts, and do something 6 days a week.

    You're quite an inspiration.

    Please feel free to add me too! I've been on the site since Jan., and am very proud of the success I've experienced so far. I'm a 48-yr-old mom of a 10-yr-old boy. I also have a desk job, which can be such a frustration in an effort to improve my health. I can always use another positive, motivated friend so go through this journey with me. You've done great - what an inspiration. Keep up the good work. :drinker:

    Feel free to add me. I am down 25 lbs, on my way to 70. I, too, have a desk job, up and down a lot, but nonetheless a desk job. I've got two kids, ages 14, 21. Always looking for friends with the same goals in mind.

    I too am looking for friends after getting use to journaling. I am a MOther of two young girls and work full time so finding time for myself is difficult but so worth it!
