    Welcome, Carol! I started here at 59, with high cholesterol and just over the line into class 1 obese. MFP can work, if person commits to using it patiently. It definitely helped me lose weight (50+ pounds), and I've been at a healthy weight for 7+ years since (now age 67). The logging was just what I needed, and I've learned so much by reading posts in the Community and asking questions. When only part way through weight loss, my cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood pressure - all of which had been high - normalized, and they've been in the normal range since.

    I'm cheering for you to succeed - in my experience, the result are worth it!
