    Yes! I'm 53, grandma of four, and looking for MFP friends in my age group. Love the young 'uns but need some friends who know what it's like staying fit in our 50s.

    I'll be 62 in August. Started this program two weeks ago. Have been able to keep my daily calories to 1,200 per day, drink lots of fluids and have been trying to walk and do pool exercises. I have been batteling a sprained or strained ankle for months. This week it came to a head and I had to have an MRI this afternoon, so it has cut into my walking this week. The first week I gained 2 lbs. Of course, I was not happy about that, but I did stick with it and the next week I lost 3 lbs. Hoping I will drop some more this week when I weigh in. I need to lose 40 lbs. :flowerforyou:

    I'm 54. Feel free to add me, anyone. I'm on every day. I've been on this weight loss journey since January and have lost 61 lbs. I still have another 40-50 lbs to go, all depending on how I look when I take another 40 off. I;m hoping to reach my goal by January.

    Tsk...just as I suspected. Lol...I clicked on this just to see what "Older folks" would be.

    Ladies...and gents....NONE of you is what *I* would consider "older folks". I'm 40 and feel no older than 25 most days! :)

    Im only 48 but stuggling with the fact that my metabolism changed and has gone from.... can eat everything and stay at 115 lbs, to hardly eating and weighing 158. would love some friends that have gone through this part of life!
  • yep, i'm supposed to be old too. but nobody told my spirit or my attitude, so i'm full of life.

    lost over 80 lbs this year; eating properly, exercising, and listening to my friends here on mfp.
