in Introduce Yourself
Hi! I'm Kathy, a 44 year old TALL blonde female from Yorktown, Virginia. I have lost 30 pounds over the last three months with MFP and Atkins diet. I'm looking to lose about 100 more pounds, though I could stand to lose about 125-140. I am looking for friends who will drop me a line every now and again (and the favor will be returned) to just check up on me and to hold me accountable. I promise to be reaffirming yet firm in returning support. All you need to do is send me a friend request... no one will be denied!

Thanks ahead of time for helping me reach my goal. Let's do this thing!
Kathy:huh:

    Hello!

    I am on every day (I don't log my calories on the weekend because I am usually too busy running around, but I still try and make good choices!). Anyways, I love MFP and like I said, I am here every day, whether it is to log or just check in see what's going on so feel free to friend me :)

    Hi,

    My name is Valerie, and If you would like, you can add me as a friend. I've found such a wonderful support group here on MFP.
    So much advice and positive encouragement...and don't forget, we keep each other accountable too. I, for sure, need that.

    Good Luck and God Bless :-)

    Hi Kathy, I have been using this site for the past 2 weeks. I have really been thrilled to find something so easy to use! I have done WW and other things in the past and couldn't stay committed. My daugter-in-law told me about the site and it has helped me soooo much. I log my foods EVERY DAY and being able to see what I have eaten and how many calories I have left and how many calories any given excerise will burn for me has had an awesome effect on me! I would be happy to try to encourage you along the way! I never wanted to count calories because it was so much trouble to me. My brother who has had a weight problem stemming from a near fatal car accident and losing some of his walking abilities, has in the past 2 adn a half months lost 38 lbs ....counting calories! He wants to lose another 50 and has been doing great...he has been a real inspiration to me! if others can do it we can too! By the way I am 48 a little older than you but I am glad to find someone close to my age wnating to do the same thing I want to do!! Stay committed! :) Oh I havent been able to figure out the ticker but I have lost 3.6 lbs since I started last Monday and am aiming at the 25 lb goal at this time.:)
