    Joined MFP yesterday and I'm 55. Still trying to figure out what I'm doing. I'm really excited about being able to keep track of my food so easily. I don't know how to add friends yet. Definitely need some...losing weight is always easier with company!

    Welcome aboard! I am 58. This site is great - so many success stories and supportive people. I usually have trouble with finding foods I eat on other sites, but I've had no trouble here. Best wishes on your journey!

    :flowerforyou: Hello and Welcome to MFP, Ladies!!

    Kettle Bells are Ball Shaped weights that are (sort of) similar to Dumb bells. You can get them in various weights and they make a Great Strength Training Workout - as long as you are careful!! Check out Kettle bell Workouts on YouTube or SparkPeople.com

    Hello all you 50 something's, I too have decided to start to work on losing weight. I don't know what happened but it seems as soon as you hit the 50 mark. The weight just piles on fast. I thought this type of support would help me.

    Hi - I turn 60 next month. I've been working at this for about 7 weeks now and am down 19 pounds. I've got about 100 to lose. Just sort of crept up on me over the last 35 years. Feel free to add me if you like. Becky
