Hello,

I just rejoined my fitness pal and since I will turn 60 on 6/30/14 I thought this would be a good group to join. I have been lacking motivation for some time and hope to gain some here. :bigsmile:

    Hey Deb - This is the best group ever! I turned 60 the end of May and the friends I've made in this group are the most supportive and motivational you will ever meet - they got me off the couch and actually walking!

    Hello Deb and welcome

    This group is a lovely bunch of ladies and so much more considerate in their posts than some of the people I've noticed posting on the main threads.

    As far as the main threads are concerned, I'd certainly recommend looking through the Success Stories with photos - truly inspirational.

    Hi Deb: congrats on coming back, that is a big step and reaching out is an even bigger one, welcome to a great group. We are all trying really hard to be supportive and if I do say so myself, we are really a great bunch of coconuts in our 60 group :laugh: We more Senior members love to welcome some more 'kids' to our group :drinker:

    No worries about motivation as that is one of the reasons we are ALL here, so see, you fit right in already. When you are ready join us in the June chat, it should be a fun month! Looking forward to getting to know you, cheers, Marian
