    I'll add you! I'm 41 too. Just started taking mfp seriously as I train to hike Mt. Fuji in 2 weeks! Eek!
  • Hi :) Feel free to add me! I NEED the support too since I've recently moved and have made no friends yet anyway!
    I'm 37, mom of 2, step mom of 6. I've lost 48 lbs and have 72lbs left... I decided to try My Fitness Pal to find friends & support on this journey.

    I'd be happy to add you! We are all in each other's corners! Keep up the good work!
  • Hi- I've been lurking here at MFP for awhile- reading boards and posting every now and again. Looking for some support. All my in-town friends are skinny minis and don't quite get how hard this is... Anyone ?

    I would be more than happy to add you! I get how hard it is. Lost 30 years back and said I would never gain it back cause it was so hard!!! Found myself back in the same boat. I am paddling.... ; ):flowerforyou:

    Feel free to add me. I'm 36 with a 5 month old who is trying to lose the last 15 pounds of pregnancy weight. Loosing this weight seems to be the hardest thing I've ever done. I've been on since March, eating well and exercising and haven't really lost a thing.... :( Just yo-yo. Maybe when I stop feeding?? Anyhow, welcome!!

    I'm a youngster, but I've got 63.6 lbs to lose and it's been a tough ride so far with a thyroid problem, two kids and a disabled husband. You can add me if you'd like.

    Thanks! :) I actually only discovered this site about 50 days ago, so I was on my own for most of it, but the last 13 pounds I have lost since I began logging have felt like the BEST ones because of all the support here! <3
  • Feel free to add me as well. 40 yr old mom with grown kids. I have about 90 pounds more to go.
  • You can add me, I need friends too!!! I am brand new to MFP, just this morning. I need to loose 50-60 pounds!!! I guess we are all in this together! My personal trainer suggested MFP to track calories & exercise.

    I am 41 years young. I am a mom of a beautiful little girl who is going to be 4 years old. No more excuses of I just had a baby (LOL). I have lost about 24 pounds within 9 weeks and about 15+ more to go. I am not only looking to lose weight, but reduce my BMI from 305 to 20-22%. I would LOVE the extra friends. Not to be picky, but if it is as important to you as it is to me and you REALLY want the change as badly as me, I would hope that my "friends" would log on daily and keep track of all of your foods and exercise. That is how it is going to work. Being on here is truly the way to get the motivation and support too. It has also been a great way to get additional clean food ideas. I lost about about 16 pounds before MFP and about 8 pounds after (been on about3 weeks), but just love the site and the new friends. If you are committed, or this sounds like you ~ FRIEND ME!!!!!
