    Hello, Diana -

    I also live in the Midwest . . . well, the Great Lakes version of the Midwest. 😉 I'm also 60+, specifically 69.

    I joined here at age 59, lost around 50 pounds, and have been hanging around here maintaining a healthy weight since, after around 30 pre-loss years of overweight/obesity.

    If logging your food suits you as a weight management approach, MFP can be very helpful. It was the perfect tool for me, when I committed to the process and followed it.

    Wishing you success, because IME the quality of life improvement is more than worth the effort it takes to accomplish it.

    Best wishes!
