We older folks over 60

VixFit2011

I'm new as of yesterday and will turn 65 on the 28th. Love all the postings at this website, both young and older. Everyone is very nice and helpful. I was just curious to see how many senior citizens there are here.

I am now 65 years old and have been trying to lose 25 pounds for years. This is the problem: all the kids are gone, my husband and I work full time, I'm too tired to cook when I come home from work and my husband never knows what he wants to eat (he's diabetic). Therefore, we eat out a lot or I pick up subs on the way home so I don't have to cook. I try to buy healthy food but end up throwing much of it away because I get bored with it or just don't feel like cooking. I joined the gym but can't seem to get to it but once a week. Is anyone in this same boat?

dianebarrette...My problem is the not yours. LOL. I still have two teenagers at home so if I try to cook healthy they have fits. My husband would love to eat better. It is just the girls holding us back. But then, due to having kids at home we do not eat out much. Can't afford to.
