    I can relate. It's definitely harder to lose as you get older, but we can do it! I lost 35 pounds 5 years ago for my daughter's wedding, then sadly gained back 40. Feel free to add me as a friend for support! I have been at this almost a week and enjoy the support of friends. Tracking helps keep me accountable which is something I really need. Tomorrow is my first weigh in, so crossing my fingers for even a tiny loss!

    I turned 49 in August and have 25 pounds to lose.. I'm very fit, just not a disciplined eater.
    I eat very healthy---but have trouble staying under a calorie limit..
    This site helps me see my bad habits, view others disciplined habits and seeing all the success helps me
    to try and believe it's possible for me, too!

    Welcome! My name is Tracy, and I am right there with you. I decided I was not going to be fat when I turned 50 in April 2013. I started my journey on August 20, and found MFP three weeks ago. I have really enjoyed it. Wishing you all the best! Feel free to add me as a friend if you like....we can see each other progress as we progress toward 50;)
