Hey Everyone,

I'm a newbie and looking forward to joining my fabulous 40 something lady counterparts. This is my 4th go around with MFP so I'll definitely need your support. However, I know this time around I will be successful...I"m claiming it! Can't wait to meet everyone and I look forward to cheering you all on as well.

    Welcome! I'm on my fourth go around on MFP as well. Hopefully this will be our time to shine!! My biggest problem is exercise. I hate it! Second biggest problem is evening eating. I seem to eat just for something to do. So those are my 2 big areas of concentration. Hmmmm... Maybe I should exercise in the evening for something to do. Sounds so simple- now to get my butt from the kitchen/couch to the treadmill. :) Good luck!!

    Welcome back!!! I know you can do it this time. Per your profile page it sounds that you were not really ready in the past to make the changes that need to be done. But you ready this time around. BTW, congrats for taking ownership...it is the first step in taking any journey. I know you will succeed. Feel free to add me.

    Hi! I am a newbie as well. I would like to lose approx. 20lbs. I have a problem with staying motivated. I purchased the fitbit and it does seem to help keep me motivated...working towards the goals each day. I am looking forward to being a part of the group and would like to welcome any friend requests from those that can help keep me motivated. Tammi

    Hi, I hope that you suceed in your efforts! I'm new here, just started on Monday. I've tried WW and spark before but I like this site better because they make it easy for you to see how to correct your calorie overage by adjusting it with your exercise efforts. I went over yesterday but then looked up how many minutes on the wii it took to burn them off. Easy!
