Hi ya’ll I’m a 50 something year old woman looking to get rid of about 60 lbs. I’m wanting to just feel a bit better about my self and thinking if I am accountable for what I put in my body, it might change my way of thinking I want to thank my son for paying for my subscription to my fitness pal He’s a member too, and is helping me on my journey. Good luck to everyone who read this with your weight loss journey as well.

    Hello, and welcome!

    What a nice son you have! Yes, this can really work, for people who commit to work with it. (I lost about 50 pounds at age 59-60, and it's still gone 8 years later. The quality of life improvement has been huge, for me.)

    Wishing you success!

    Welcome, Joy! Not only is this website/app a wonderful resource, but you can also draw from lessons learned by your son to help avoid making the same mistakes early on that he learned to avoid. Double score!

    Welcome! What a great gift from your son! :)

    I have just restarted and can use some buddies, if you are interested. I have swapped to a stricter Mediterranean Diet about 6 months ago and now, I think it is time to get some exercise and tracking in.

    I did just start a group today called Mediterranean WOE. I'm hoping to fill with meals, exercises, goals, etc. Not much in there yet but, the more the merrier. :)
