    Hi Michelle! My name is Maggie! I live in Cali and I have always been big and since I'm getting older I think it's time for a change and I just keep getting bigger and less happy with myself! We can do this! Let's get fit!

    Hi Michelle!
    I am also trying to lose some baby weight. I have been on here about 2 1/2 weeks and find it to be very supportive and helpful. We can do this. Welcome!

    Morning Everyone, I made my first post yesterday but had no one reply, wonder why that is, I was expecting a welcome as I have been reading your posts for a while. Is there anyone out there like me 60plus, but young at heart and still wanting to look as good as possible, maybe you will let me know. Keep up the good work everyone. I am in the UK and trying hard to lose 43 lbs .

    All the best of luck. I have been on here for a month (but need new batteries for the scales to see if I have lost any weight) I find it really useful for checking out what I am eating. A friend of mine is on Weight Watchers and we have compared this website against hers (which she pays for) and this is definetly better for watching what you are doing. The concious mind has a lot to answer for when it comes to loosing weight, I find I am eating more as I was not eating enough calories! Still keep going over on sugar though.... ;0)

    cardmaker,
    I'm not quite 60 but dont look back, I'm catching up. 57 now.

    Dont worry about the lack of responses. Sometimes these go so fast not all posts get seen.

    I also am new on here and am enjoying reading all the posts.

    Hi, Thanks for the reply, wrong age actually, should have said 60 but I wasnt sure how to change it lol.These boards do move fast I find it difficult to catch up, but people have lots of interesting things to say and lose lots of weight.I am trying hard to eat all the calories I should have but always feel guilty if I do and I am having a hard time trying not to. Best of luck with your weight loss journey.

    You can do it! Read the message boards especially when you first sign-up. They led me to some amazing supportive people. I've tried just about everything off and on over the years and NOTHING has ever made me want to stick with it like MFP. It is being accountable to me. It is daily support. Best wishes for your success!
