Hi,

I'm new and thought I'd say 'howdy'!

I'm really ready to lose those extra pounds and think this place is just what I need to help me stay on track and meet my goals. Yay!

I'm 51 and, after a neck injury about 3 years ago, have found the lack of mobility and pain management issues contributed to piling on pounds. Anyone else know what I mean? :sad:

So, now that I'm feeling pretty good, I'm getting more active and it's time to get back to feeling good about my weight. My goal is to lose about 40 pounds. I know I can do it.

Any thoughts or support will be welcome. If I can share or offer anything, I'll love to do it. Communities like this are priceless and I thank you all in advance for being part of a group like this that gives folks like me a real good feeling about making our goals happen!

:happy:

    Howdy howdy.

    Do I hear a Texas accent in there some where...? Welcome to MFP and sure it will help you as much as it is helping me.

    Thanks guys!

    No Texan... California girl. Central coast now, but have 10 years in the high Sierra. Every once in a while that friendly-cowboy slang slips out! My sister lives on a ranch in Idaho... she's always refreshing my 'cowbow-isms'

    I'm looking forward to getting to know you all.
