50ish dieting buddies wanted in UK!

Hi there

For the first time in years I am managing to stick to a diet with the help of myfitnesspal, and am really proud of myself. Im also swimming regularly and am starting to change shape. I've only lost eight pounds though in nine weeks and am scared that I will start losing my motivation - so ........ anyone out there in the same place that would like to chat and share motivation?

    Hi
    I've tried to diet millions of times over the year so having and sharing might just be what I need I,ve just turn 43 Last week.
    I'm still on my holiday at the moment so not taking the site too seriously just trying to find my way round. I'm hoping having a pool to hand will spur me on ready for when I get back to England on Tuesday . I did join te site years go but never used it I would be happy to lose 8lbs you should be well pleased well done !!! :-)

  • I am 47 but I was excited to see someone with a similar name. My name is Mary Sue Morgan. Hey maybe we are related. I have lost 10 pounds since I started in August. I am excited about what reliv products are doing for me. I also swim and just two days ago I started a dance fitness class- Monday thru Thursday!
  • Hi I am Mary Sue Morgan. I am 47 years old. I have started on the relive products and loving what it is helping me with. I have lost 10 pounds since August 3rd. I am swimming as I always have and two days ago I started a dance fitness class- Monday thru Thursday. My goal is to be back into my size 10 clothes. I currently weigh 205 so I got a ways to go.
  • Thank you! You are right, its not 'only' .... and not its a huge ten pounds! Im more motivated than ever, and Ive got ankles back. Im definitely changing shape and people are noticing so that is motivational too.....
