My wife said even trying was crazy at my age

But 29 years after I graduated high school, I now weigh what I weighed at graduation, or at least close enough.

Well done! It's never crazy to try when it comes to health.

That puts you under 50, right? You're just hitting your second wind! Encourage the Mrs. to join you, it's never too late!

I'm 46 and that's my goal too. Definitely not crazy in my opinion.

You're here because you're worth any effort you'll commit to, to attain your immediate and long-term fitness, aesthetics & health goals, at this stage in your life. I'm 44 and if I've not once regretted signing up on myfitnesspal back in November 2012 when family-friends via JPL recommended this app/site to me and my sister. My entry weight was 387 lbs, for having already lost [freight-weight] lbs.

Highly recommend you look up the listed peer-to-peer tips you may have a read-through.
