Folks in their 40s, 50s, and 60s?

Options
Please don't take this wrong, I love all people! However, I do think different age groups may face some unique challenges. While we can all relate on some level, I also think there are times we need folks in our own demographic to help us along the way. If anyone fits in this range, I'd love a friend request!

Thanks,
Rick

    I completely agree with you! I don't lose weight the same way I did in my 20's and 30's. lt takes longer and I get discouraged easier. But I'm back again and looking for buddies to help!

    62 yesterday!!
    But only feel a day older than I did the day before.
    Don't let age discourage you, anything we do positive in our lives will have an impact. I'm the worst dieter ever and I'm
    Giving it a go again.

    Newbie. Looks like this is a good place to start. Been taking care of sick family members 10 years. Slowed my metabolism to a crawl. Time to get me back in order now. :)
