    I am so glad I found this group. I am going to turn 60 this coming summer. Over the last year I have put on 15 lbs., that on top of the 15 I already had makes for a big 30 lbs I need to lose. I thank you for your motivational entries. I am going to be visiting this everyday to find the motivation. Thanks everyone

    Anyone struggling with those last ten pounds? I'm making progress, but it really seems slow here near the end.

    Hi, I'm new to all this. Started Jan 1st and ran across this over 50 s discussion. I'm 54 trying to lose 50 lbs I sadly put on over time. I find staying at 1,200 call a day challenging, but most of all I can't seem to keep my sodium intake at bay.

    Help

    I'm right there with you. It appears that I have stalled or the best at a snails pace. I know and keep reminding myself that this is normal. The upside to the slowwwwww pace is it will help cement in my brain all that I have learned from this journey to move forward into maintenance.

    Sandra: are you sure you are taking in enough calories? MFP suggested I eat only 1200 calories also. I could not do it so I choose to up to 1325. That helped me tremendously and I no longer feel hungry. Also is your food diary open for us to look at to see if we spot something that is loaded with salt?
