I'm 61 and had a heart cath yesterday. I will be put on a diabetes/heart healthy diet when I go for my followup visit on May 3. I currently weigh 225 and am 5'5". I've got to get my act together. Hope we can encourage each other!0

Not quite there yet at 58 yrs old. Dropped about 45lbs starting at age 54. Looking to drop about 10-15 more to help me get faster in races. Feel free to add me if you'd like.1

I'm 51 but I'm struggling more this time to lose the weight I think because I'm getting older. I need to re-commit NOW if I'm going to make my goal weight by June 1st! Good luck to all!0
