    Male, 49 and 258 lbs today.
    I thought I would join before I was too old. I love lifting weights and cycling. I am not really that much overweight but trying to lose down to 240 lbs. Want to compete in a weightlifting competition at 240 lbs when I turn 50 and break a few records. Never used steroids and hate them with a passion. But I can blow past the drug users only because of my age.
    Started a new diet about a month ago keeping up with my macros...2000 cal, 240g protein, 100g carbs. And I am not eating till after 12:00 pm. I know exactly what I am going to eat everyday so that I don't eat crazy after 12:00. Would love to hear what diet others are on who weight lift and are loosing weight. There is always something to learn from others.

    49 and in my last few months before I turn 50. So far lost 80 pounds and kept off 70 of this over the past couple of years. Long journey, aiming to lose another 30 pounds.

    Running 4 days per week and walk about 15000 to 20000 steps per day. At the end of a 1.5 year career sabbatical which has tested my boredom eating willpower.

    Glad I found this thread.

    Once again, I have been on the road a lot. On the road again tomorrow. Sigh.
    I did get a run in, followed by an hour of Pilates last night. Was planning on going for a little run today and it is SNOWING out! Horrible, wet, white flakes. Ugh.

    My gawd my scale is just NOT co-operating.

    I need to take a break from the scale....I need to pick up my measuring tape, again. I am really, really hard on myself and it is turning into a really unhealthy obsession with a scale.

    Just got back to MFP a couple weeks ago and saw this group. I am 51 and looking to lose 50 lbs. Was running regularly 2 years ago and training for first half marathon before a knee issue. Then BLAM, gianed my weight back. I'm an ol' CC (Calorie Count) refugee looking for a group like this (was part of one on that site). Besides, I ALWAYS want to hang with the Cool Kids!! :)

    I feel your pain. The measuring tape is a much better (and truer) indicator.

    Reading the posts and its good to see so many Cool Kids getting it done.

    I've really had to adjust my expectations lately as I go through rehab work with the chiropractor. Today, he said that I could resume some light cycling, but only for 15 minutes at a time. So I guess its going to be baby steps for awhile. :)
