Hi, I am 58 and also struggle with the weight I've gained over the years. I am retired now and have one son in college. Feel free to add me as a friend.

We are very close....I am 56ish....5 foot 7 inches and 192 pounds with a goal of 150. Just started January 2nd.

Feel free to add me as a supporter. I just joined 30 days ago but I find the site and its members helpful and encouraging. I am 57 years old and recently retired. I have one son in college.

I just joined MFP in January so I am new to this, but after doing WW and Jenny Craig I can tell you that once you hit goal you still have to be careful. Which is how I ended up with Jenny Craig and MFP. I just kept changing Weight Loss Programs but in reality it was "me" and not the program. You have to be honest with…

Good atitude. No sense looking back and regretting when you can look forward to losing the weight and feeling better. You can add me as a friend for support and encouragement. I'm trying to lose about 50 since quitting smoking.

Two tablespoons half and half....makes coffee yummy and has less additives then fake creamers.

No you are not crazy. I quit 10 years ago and didn't have the support of these great people on MFP. Everyone here will help and support you every day. Go for it. You will feel soooo much better.

Bread pudding, rice pudding and all things coconut.

Being a coffee lover myself, I have found some ways to cut the calories. There are sugar free syrups flavored at walmart and target and then if you use fat free half and half - coffee taste wonderful

I agree with those who say it's your business.....but then again if you are putting the question out there.....you get all the opinions that go with it. But in the end...only you and your husband can decide.

How is everyone posting pictures of their dogs. I cant find any instructions.

Someone recommended SkinnyTaste.com to me and it is wonderful. I've made a few recipes already and my family and I love them.

THANK YOU! We have all probably known people like this or we have become them, whether it be weight loss, exercise or any other obsession. Some people just go on and on about their work when asked "how's it goin". You have enabled me to see what not to do when I am around my non-dieting, non-gym friends.

We eat the ranch dressing or the caesar every night. My son (20) puts ranch on almost everything. I didn;t know they made other products. It is strange to see a zero calorie anything, but these are pretty decent.

I noticed that you are very young - nothing against that.....but I think that this should be a place of open mindedness and non judgemental behavior. So whatever works for you - thats fine! But some people have different ideas of how they are going to complete their journey. You will develop better social habits as you age…

Remember that everybody was a newbie at one time....just enjoy!

Rodney Yee's yoga AM is fantastic. Short and very effective.

Absolutely! At night while watching tv, I look at all of the pictures and stories of people meeting their goals and it keeps me from eating more snacks.

How wonderful. You look fantastic.

Wow, what a difference. You look amazing! I get so inspired looking at everyones pictures. Just when you wonder whether you can do this....you see a pic of someone who has succeeded. Thanks.

wow,,,just amazing. You are really an inspiration to all of us. Congrats

Maybe this is the year where more kind acts will be demonstrated by more people. Wouldn't that make 2013 wonderful?

Hi, I am just starting out and trying to figure the calories and exercises into my diary. I love the support that the message boards give you and it keeps me from falling of the wagon. The more friends the merrier.

I love Walden Farms Ranch dressing - and its zero calories! Look for it in the refrigerated section. Yummy

I have the Omron too. They are wonderfully easy to program and simple to read.

Welcome and best of luck on your weight loss journey. Everyone here is so supportive. Feel free to add me as a friend, I just started on the 2nd but its nice to have friends support you.
