Hi. I’m looking for some support from peers in my age group and would be happy to give support as well. I’m a little overwhelmed at the challenges ahead and let’s face it, weight loss is a whole different ballgame in your fifties. It’s a waste of time talking to younger folks about it. If you say your body just doesn’t work the same now that you’re older all you get is, “ You’re not old!” I’m just coming off an injury but even so haven’t worked out seriously in years. I’m looking to lose around 45-50 lbs and am not fooling myself into thinking it’ll be easy. So, would be happy to have others to share the journey with.

I'm right there with you! I have 60 more lbs to lose and think I need support and to support others to get through it. I miss my life when I was active and want to get back to feeling stronger and being outside.0
