  • Thanks, MzKlutch... I'm enjoying this thread quite a bit. Seems that folks here are quite supportive. Stef, (not that I'm an oldtimer, but) I joined WW back in early 2008 after being overweight-to-obese for most of my life. I lost the first 35 lbs just eating better, and then I started running (really a slow jog). I'd…
  • I'm 41 and working to get (back) to the neighborhood of my goal weight. I'm a college professor and writer--working on a book about vultures (if you think YOU eat junk, etc). My research has me doing a lot of world travel, which is great for my mind but not so much for my waistline. I'd put back on nearly 20 lbs of the 57…

I've kept much of the weight off since then... but in the last year, the scale just kept creeping creeping creeping until I had grown out of all but my roomiest clothes. I've recommitted, but also moved to a new state (NY)…
  • Hello MFPers, I'm back after a hiatus of nearly 2 years... that gained me nearly 20 lbs! So... 9 of them down since coming back and I would love some pals to help with motivation. Please add me! I live in Central NY (just got here) and the winter weather is on it's way. I would love to support/get support for workouts.…
  • Hi all, I've been on MFP for close to a year, off and on. I lost 50 lbs a few years back and have been working to keep it off and lose about 10 more. Everything is more fun with friends, so feel free to add me--I can use workout motivation and healthy home-cooked food ideas. C
