    I struggle with food all the time. I find that working out helps me by giving me more calories to eat and relieving stress. I tend to judge my accomplishments by what others have done, and that sets me back. I may be going slowly on weight loss, get fit journey, but I am going,and that's what is important.

    51 years young here! Time for me to lose this weight for good that has been coming off and going back on for years. I believe I have lost the same 20# over and over and gained it back once again. NO MORE!!:happy:

    Hi, I am 44 will be 45 in June, just joined today. Tired of my feet hurting daily from too much weight on them. My sister did this and lost her weight she wanted to so I thought I would give it a try.

    Hey, I'm 42 and started MFP about 3 weeks ago. I lost 8 pounds the first 2 weeks and was very excited. Then this last week I lost NOTHING :sad: I believe it is a female age thing, the weight just seems to want to stay there!

    Hi ...im 57 and struggling, but thats always been the case, i dont have a problem with diets just losing weight, there is a switch in me to trigger weight loss i just cant find it been looking for it for years lol. Im doing Dr Michael Mosley's The Fast Diet along with Weight Watchers on my feed days, its a breeze, but i do like to keep a tight track of calories, i trust in Michael Mosley and i do feel exceptionally well, not taking any medication what so ever , so i guess i cant have everything. :smile:
