    I'm 53. My sister is on the site and she's 55; she lost >150 pounds in her fifties. My mother is here somewhere too. She's 78 and she lost 35 pounds in the last couple of years (on purpose...diet & exercise). So it can be done!

    I'm in Pennsylvania USA

    I am 57. I started this in June and have been very pleased. The whole emphasis by most folks here on making changes that you can continue to live with for the rest of your life is exactly what I need. I have been trying the "eat more to weigh less" approach for the last few weeks and it is working well for me so far. Feel free to add me. I, too, am looking for a few more active and supportive friends and enjoy being the same for others.

    Greetings from another 50+ MFP -- I turned 56 2 weeks ago. I joined MFP last February but didn't start using it consistently until a few weeks ago. I'm pretty close to where I want to be weight-wise, and I am finding MFP a really great tool for learning how to maintain. I think it IS possible to teach an old dog new tricks, and I'm determined to keep the weight off for good! No more yo yo-ing for me!
    I'd also love to have more MFP friends - the mutual encouragement is really great - so felllow 50 plus-ers feel free to add me! :happy:

    57 and going strong. I lost about 10 pounds with the help of this app then I stopped using it. I didn't gain it all back, but I do not eat as well, so I am back. Add me if you like.
