    @wyrd2 welcome to MFP!

    Check out the challenges board. There’s several good ones there, including the “give me 10 days” one.

    There’s also a private group for those with 100+ to lose. I’m sure someone will be along with the link.

    I’m just here to cheer you on. I started at age 56, totally and utterly sedentary, and lost 40+% of my starting weight, from a 22W down to a consistent size 4, where I’ve maintained for four years or so.

    Don’t let anyone talk you of the ledge. Jump in. I’m so glad I took my lazy self in hand and made changes. I changed my life and certainly my health. I find myself feeling really sorry for those who don’t, and want to thump them on the back. “Do something!!!! It’s not too late!!!”

    All the stuff about being older, menopause makes it impossible etc etc etc is BS. I wish I’d done this decades ago.
