Hi, I've been using this site for a month+ and it is really great! I usually lurk on forums but I just had to come out in the open. Is there anyone as ancient as me here (58)? You all look so young and beautiful!

    Welcome lurker janeausten! I'm 48 - have been here since January and love it! Hope you stick around - there are a lot of us here that are more than 3 or 4 or 5 + decades. And the younger ones are still really supportive and just fighting the same battles we are! Enjoy yourself, the water's fine here!:flowerforyou:

    agree totally ---I am 52 and just wish this stuff was aroudn when I was younger---my 14 year ol daughter uses this site every day!!! She has lost 14 pounds and is eating healthy food. We are all fighting the same battle--we older ones just have more war wounds.

    I am either 57 or 58, it all gets very vague around this age.
    Welcome.
    I lurk too but I play a lot of the games.
    I just like to see my ticker and other peoples.
