    Nice to see that you've had so many replies! This is a great supportive community. I am 58 and have been way too overweight for years. I have lost weight a few times but this is the time to go all the way and keep it off! The trick is not to do fad diets. Just make good food choices with fibre and protein and fruits and veggies and do a fair bit of exercise each week.

    I have lost 50 pounds so far this year and i am determined to lose the other 40 pounds and keep it off.

    I do a kettlebell class, aquafit classes, and cycle outside and walk stairs near me. I started in January just doing my stationary bike at home for whatever I could manage. Now I can't imagine going without regular exercise. Just signed up at my rec centre for a cardio trampoline class and a combination yoga/pilates/cardio class. When you make exercise fun you will stick with it for life.
    Just start with walking or stationary cycling or whatever you can manage. The three times a week exercise usually prescribed is not enough for the rest of your life.
