    Hi Cassie, You can add me to your friends. I have been on MFP for a bit and love the site, but am always looking for friends and supporters. I, unfortuantely, passed 20 a long time ago. I am 61. I started at 218 and am now down below 200 but stuck in a plateau. Welcome to MFP.

    Cass. I'm 76 yrs old. I have always been in good shape. I've been jogging for sometime. I weighed 235 lbs about 4 months ago. I just decided I have too much pride to have a big belly. I also realized that I was not a big eater, but I ate a lot of things I should eat at ll. Sugars, sweets, etc.
    So about 2 1/2 months ago I bought a notebook and have been tracking everything I eat everyday. My daughter told me about this site and have been here for about a month. I limit myself to about 1100 to 14oo calories. I also increased my running from about 3 times a week to 5 or 6 times a week and also increased my running time to 30 to 60 min. each time.
    You have to go at your pace, but the biggest thing is you have to eat healthy and not cheat. Maybe for a week or so, you have to cheat a little, but you have to get out of cheating ASAP>

    Best of luck!!

    Basil

    Feel free to add me. I'm always up for more people to support and to get support in return. We are all in this journey together. Without my MFP's, I would have given up on myself and my fitness about 2 months ago (and I've only been on here for a little more than 70 days!). MFP's are AWESOME!
