    Hi Donna, you can be my friend :) I have only been on here a few weeks, lost 9 pounds. No kids but a poodle and a boyfriend :) I think friends help, you can talk about what's hard and what helps. i think my boyffie is a bit sick of me constantly talking about calories! lol

    Donna, I am with you. I talk about grams, ounces, etc. My husband comes home to hearing about what I did at the gym and how I am getting my son more involved. At some point, I hope the members of my family come around, but for now I use my MFP friends to help motivate and support me.

    sent a friend request. I have been here for a little over 2 weeks. I'm down 11lbs, I weigh in again Friday but I'm feeling a little worried about it.
    I'm a mom of 5 and married going on 16yrs. though I have a lot of weight to lose for myself I am also trying to work on making my family healthier, so starting with a lot of little changes.
