Looking for Friends with 50+ to Lose

Hey there! I have WAAAAY over 50 to lose myself!! More than happy to join you on this journey! I'm sending you a friend request now!!

I have about 60 to lose, anyone feel free to add me

I want to lose atleast 30 pounds. I joined this site yesterday. Am feeling over-whelmed with managing the food diary right now.

Do not worry, it gets easier as you log, and dont worry about getting the exact measurements of stuff in like protein, carbs, calories. I never do.

I have over 40 lbs to lose for sure, maybe 50. I can use some friends to give and get support from, and share ideas.

I still have over 115 lb to lose I have lost 22 lb so far have a long way to go need help to get up and move so friend me and we will help each other

I'm working in Kilos but am looking to lose around 25 kg which is more than 50lbs - reaching the end of the 3rd week and everything going well so far but would welcome being added

150 lbs to lose , anyone can add me for support and encouragment. I am pledging to log in everyday and support as i can!!

Add me I have 78lbs to loose.

I would like to lose 70 lbs too. I have a plan though and am just focusing on making healthy choices regarding moving and eating. I'm happy to add friends with and without a lot to lose who are also trying to live a healhy life.

I will add you I to cook and I started making a cookbook. I try a new recipe every other night that is low cal. Like most people I grew up on meat and potatoes and I have to " re-learn" how to cook so I can cook for both health and comfort heart I normally post the recipe if its a good recipe. and anyone else who would like support feel free to add me :bigsmile:

Hello! Welcome to MFP!

MFP is a really great resource to keep you focused and connect you with a wealth of fitness resources and like minded folks.


1. Log your foods every day - don't skip days, or parts of your day. log everything!
2. Analyze each day - see where it went good and where it went bad - too much fat? maybe too many carbs? over the calorie limit? Identify and plan how to correct it for tomorrow.
3. Reach out to the community with questions or advice needs.
4. Build a network of friends here!
5. Lastly, do not believe everything you read here. There is a lot of great advice, but also some misleading and hype type advice. Part of getting fit is educating yourself in aspects of health and fitness. Make sure any questionable advice is looked at with a scientific eye and look for facts, evidence, and most importantly real world proof.
6. You are more than a number. Sometimes the scale may not say what you hoped - thats fine. weight loss is not a straight line declination. Its a bumpy line that drops over time. Don't let single day numbers get your focus away from term based results.
7. Vary your exercises. Your body forms memories and can slow down how it burns fat and builds muscles. Keep it confused! Hit it hard with cardio styles. Build lean muscle to burn even more fat.
8. and above all - take your photo now! You will want to look back and have a starting BEFORE picture to proudly display along with your series of PRESENT or CURRENT photos during your transformation and continued lifestyle of fitness.

I welcome you, and anyone else out there to add me as a friend. I have made fitness and health my passion and love the idea of folks joining me in my new lifestyle of being fit, healthy, and most importantly - HAPPY!.

I'm here to support and motivate!!! I find my own success comes easier when I help and fuel other folks success.

and remember - most folks care more about the quality of fuel they put in their lawn mowers than the fuel they put in their bodies. Don't be one of those people. Whole foods. Natural foods. Intelligent choices.



Fit for life,

My journey has been a long lived one:sad: I actually started trying to loose weight in November of this past year. I woke up oneday and realized that I was turning into my mother..lol! My whole family has weight problems....And I mean all us girls after we have babies forget about ever looking good again! lol. I started at 209 in November and I am currently 175.6. My ultimate goal is 140. I am a small frame of only 4 ft 11in so I if I don't change my life style I am doomed.
