Hey everyone. 51M looking for a big restart to get back to feeling and moving better.

Really need someone(s) to keep me accountable for logging in here and getting me back into good habits. Haven't been on in forever so i don't have my previous connections to rely on.

Hope to connect with you and support each other on our journey.

The PP has great advice: Consider joining one of the accountability, support, or challenge threads here. I'm sure the one she suggests can be great, but there are lots of different ones, with different "subcultures" and vibes. I'm betting one of them could suit you, maybe more than one.

What's nice about that is the continuity: When I first joined up here, I noticed that a lot of people don't last (often because they tried to do impractical, too-extreme things that aren't really necessary 😉). If I got to relying on a person or two for support, and they didn't last, that was discouraging in itself. Joining a thread or group, those tend to keep going. Sometimes the participants change over the course of time, but lots of the groups/threads keep going on with evolving participants. I think that's more encouraging and supportive.

No matter what you decide, I hope you firmly decide to keep going: I joined MFP at 59, muddled my way through weight loss . . . and my quality of life improved significantly as a result. I'm now 70, and still at a healthy weight. I want everyone to have that kind of great experience, including you.

Best wishes!
