    52 year old female here. It took me from mid-July to mid-November to lose 30 big pounds. Females lose weight much slower than males. I don't feel any different than when I was 35. It's all in your head.

    I haven't yo-yo'd. I was a bit heavy in my forties, maybe ten pounds. Then I broke my foot and learned to sit on *kitten* for very long periods of time. I have gained about five pounds per year for the last five years. That right there is my motivator. When I feel frustrated at my weight loss, I remember how many years it took to put the pounds on.

    Good luck to you. You are a handsome man and I can't wait to see your befores and afters post.
