    Hi ladies, Invites going out momentarily!
    Community tab at the top in the blue band
    Notifications (the little bell icon in the white part of the page, toward the upper right).
    Some invitations are glitching after the MFP updates last fall that apparently are still not fixed. If you don't see yours, pm me and I will send again. If that doesn't work you will have to contact MFP for further assistance.
    Welcome!

    Please can I join I'm 57( said very quietly). Lost my weight last year but have had a long holiday back in the UK . Ended up putting some on. Back on the MFP and things are going well. Just been told my husband is off to Italy for 6 months. Another change for me when I can go and join him at present living in Oman. Jet setting and losing weight are quite difficult could do with the support.

    I have been struggling for the past few years. The pounds just keep adding up. Last night was my turning point again. I think I really need a support system to help me get back to eating and working out like I should. So for the reasons above I would like to join your group. I am 60. I have 2 grand daughters and 2 more coming in the next few weeks. I want to have the energy to enjoy these little ones.

    In December I got diagnosed with pre-diabetes. I am hoping to control my blood sugar levels with diet & exercise. I don't want to take medications. I am hoping this group can help me reach my goals.

    This would be a great club for me! I'm 53. Single mom to 8 kids ages 12-26. I need to lose about 80-90 lbs and finding it very, very difficult at this age. I like to walk, swim and ride bikes. I also do a cardio weight class three days a week. So far I've GAINED 8 pounds.

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

    Yep I know it's supposed to be muscle weight. But if that were true then why are my pants tighter rather than looser? I feel like I'm pushing a boulder up a mountain and it keeps rolling back over me.

    My motivation is to be healthy and have a great quality of life in my old age. I mean I still have a 12 year old for goodness sake. I gotta stay alive for quite a while longer. :smile:

    Good morning ladies! I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to join your club. I will be 56 soon and so that qualifies me for the group. You are just what I am looking for and I would be honored to be included. Could really use some kindness, some encouragement and some laughs. (I don't know how to upload a pic of myself yet - trying to figure it out)

    Great having a group to vent/ brag or just ask questions. Find posting and looking at friends diaries really help. Hints like how to make sure u drink daily water really makes a difference

    At age 57 I'm finally starting to live for me. Starting with self-care makes the most sense. Since I have over 100 pounds to lose, starting here is a no-brainer. The big question is how to do it as a lifestyle change? So over the past year I've made small changes that stuck, resulting in a 35 pound loss. Now it's time to kick it up a notch. I'd like to join this group to get and give support during this life changing journey. Thanks all!

    So far your group is made up of youngsters.
    Do you think this 68 year old could join?

    I need help to stay honest, new foods to help me lose and above all incouragement.

    Thanks for considering my joining.

    Hi,I am 50 in September this year. I am 8 days into using this app,with a goal of losing 30-40lb. I suddenly looked in the mirror and didn't like what I saw,and have suddenly got super high blood pressure,which doesn't help with excercise. I live in the uk, so seem to have totally different,yet the same problems,with my eating plans than a lot of people on here, found that fascinating

    Hi -- Would love to join! I'm about two months shy of turning 51.

    Back at the tender age of 47/48 I lost 120 pounds through diet and exercise. A broken foot last winter kept me from exercise for 6 months and I slowly saw 20# creep back on from both lack of exercise and (post-healing) starting to lift weights. Some is muscle, most is not, and I AM DETERMINED to get rid of the excess weight I worked so hard to lose the first time!
