I am your age (well, 67) and have been here for a while (almost 8 years, lost weight successfully, now maintaining a healthy weight).
If you have specific questions, we might be able to help. I don't think we can teach everything about how to use MFP here in a post. I wouldn't know where to start.
Here are some things that might possibly help you:
On the MFP Help page, there are some basic how-to documents. You can find those here:
https://support.myfitnesspal.com/hc/en-us/categories/360001951372-Using-the-App
There are several "Essential Guides" published by MFP in a sub-section of the Blog area, here:
https://blog.myfitnesspal.com/essential-guides/
Here in the Community, there are "Most Helpful Posts" sections in each topic area, with things other MFP users have posted over the years that are especially helpful (as nominated by other MFP users). The ones most helpful for a new person would be under "Getting Started" or "Health and Weight Loss" in the Community. Direct links to those areas are here:

https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10300319/most-helpful-posts-health-and-weight-loss-must-reads#latest
The single best getting started post among those, IMO, is this one:
http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/1080242/a-guide-to-get-you-started-on-your-path-to-sexypants/p1
Don't let that joke-y clickbait title put you off: It's full of solid, sensible information.
Best wishes!0
