    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

    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!!!!!
