Hi, my name is Cathy. New to this app. Nearly 70 and at highest weight ever. Lose weight and exercise regularly are the goals. I want to be thinner than my twin (haha).

    Hi, Cathy, and welcome!

    Patience and persistence on the right course will deliver results at any age. I'm 67 now, though now hanging around here to maintain a healthy weight after losing from class 1 obese back in 2015-16. So far, so good.

    The quality of life benefits from getting to a healthy weight, and being more active/fit, are huge, in my experience. And it isn't necessary to get all the way to goal weight, or all the way to super-fit, to start seeing those benefits. They start coming pretty often, all along the route.

    You can do this. I'm wishing you huge success!
