    Yes, I'm a member of that group also, both great places to find support and motivation. Both started about the same time. In fact Mike, the first leader there is also a member of our group and we're friends.

    Hi everyone, am nearer to 60 will I do? lol :blush:

    I started back in Dec 2014 and lost 2 stone (28 pounds) but stopped last July. The good thing is that I kept that weight off so am now ready for round two. I want to lose another 2 stone over the next year, so here goes!

    Do we have to admit we're over 50? !!!!
    I guess when it comes to weight loss, we do... it seems so much harder than even 5 years ago to lose those "few pounds" that keep inching the numbers up... I'm finding for myself it is much more what I eat, not so much the exercise that I do...
    Darn it! But, glad to be here amongst other oldsters who are on the same page! I watch over my mom, who's 94, still able to walk after breaking her leg last summer - walking with a lot of encouragement, that is -- but - it shows me that keeping active isn't really a choice, it's a mandate....
