in Introduce Yourself
Hi,
Just starting out! Hoping to lose weight and gain strength and maybe some new friends with similar goals. At 52 years old and about 50 lbs overweight it is a bit intimidating, but I'm here and trying to reach my goals of a better me! Reach out if you can provide some support and inspiration, guidance definitely accepted.

    I am 58 and returning to MFP. I have about 75 pounds to lose. I recently read a book I found on Amazon called "Over 50, Overweight, and Out of Breath" by Laura Sinclair. I found it extremely motivating. Good luck to you :)

    Lost 100# at 50 with just diet and exercise, so it can be done at any age.
