I'm determined to succeed this time...

I'm 50 years old and a mother of 3 grown up children. I have yoyo dieted (tried every one, every year, sometimes twice!!!) most of my adult life and have still managed to remain overweight. I have an excellent social life which is probably partway to blame. I would like to lose 74lbs which is obviously a HUGE number so I am taking it week by week and going stone by stone... If you would like to add me, we can help to motivate each other; and another way I'm looking at it is, if my hands and mind are kept busy typing, I'm NOT in the kitchen wondering what to eat!!! I look forward to hearing from you... x

Me too! I am 48 and have been overweight since my first pregnancy. My kids are grown now. I have started yesterday with a training plan for a triathlon at end of September so it's my way of keeping on track. Being consistent with good eating habits is definitely the challenge but I am determined to do it slow and right!!

I'm a 60 year old mother of one, grandmother of 5, and great grandmother of 7. I've been trying to lose 88 pounds for the last 5 years with no success. I have lots of friends and family who think all social gatherings should be about food. 2 years ago I went vegetarian and caused an uproar. I struggle daily with being consistent with what and how I eat, keeping track of it, and exercise. Learning to not let excuses control me. Slow and steady is the name of my game these days and it seems to be working.

Good luck. Slow and steady. Hope it works out for you
