    I turned 50 a couple of weeks ago - 1 year on MFP and currently trying to lose the last few pounds to get to target. Happy to be added, as many MFP friends seem to have stopped checking in in recent months

    Can 45 be the new 50??

    Am in the UK and have gone back to Uni. Just about to start my 3rd year ... ooooo errrr!!! 25000 word dissertation! :noway:

    @Julesoa ... congrats on your weight loss. After all the weight you have successfully lost, I would say, get in there!! The sea wants you!

    I know, as I am entering my 25th year as a scuba dive instructor.

    Its low impact, incredibly relaxing and the toning you get, all over, is brilliantly refreshing.

    And it improves your overall mental state because its an incredibly social sport.

    Love your comment. I'm 60 and am at my goal weight but I had gastric by pass. Never the less it has been very difficult, the 1st one I had stopped working and had a revision by a quack I'm afraid. He created such malabsorption I became so sick I had to go into the hosp and came home with TPN infusion for 3 months. After that of course because they didn't change anything inside I ended up sick again. Back to a specialist this time and now just recently on the mend after he reversed totally the malabsorption. Wooo...long story, sorry. I am going to have to be careful now though I do have a new 'sleeve' to restrict my guantity. I have been close to goal weight for several years now and don't feel I will have a problem.
    So anyway, congratulations to you.

    I'm 65 - losing weight is slow for post menopauasel women but it can be done. MFP is great.

    62 here and working to keep my cholesterol and triglycerides down, fibromyalgia at bay, and to keep my heart, lungs, and bones strong. My weight is fine but I really have to push to keep everything else in shape. (My mum was an Aussie war bride and I lived in Ipswich when I was a kid.) Feel free to add me.
