Hi, Im middle aged housewife and I need support losing weight. Im at the end of my rope, hopefully you'll be the knots I need. Here goes.
Love, Sweet tooth.

Hey Sweet Tooth, and

I like that...the knots in your rope!

What sort of plan are you looking to follow? We probably have a chat thread for it..we also have threads based on age group, amount you have to lose...so just look around.

Let us know if we can point you to any particular areas...there are a lot of them!

Hi there and WELCOME to 3FC. I'm glad you've found this place as it is a great source of advice, info,encouragment and support. In fact, I'm thinking you just may have found those knots you were looking for.

Hi there &

Ha ha! I like that analogy!

Yes, please do tell us a little about what you're trying to do. Maybe we can point you in the right direction. But, please post wherever you're comfortable!

Best of success!!!

Thank you so much for your kind replies.
I feel encouraged already!
I've been up to 170, Im gonna say 50 pounds more until I reach my goal. Its been a seesaw with these last pounds. Im hoping friends will push me into action. If you can point out were I should turn I'd love that.
:]

can I hope to lose 30 pounds by my 50th birthday in July?

30 lbs in about 4 months or so is pretty reasonable. But, don't focus too much on the time frame. After all, being any amount closer to your goal is great, isn't it?

You might want to check out the 40-somethings or the 50+ support areas. Or, if you're following a specific diet program, you may find it under Diet Central.

Just keep on posting, wherever that may be
