    I started my journey at age 58 with 105 to lose. I have lost 80 so far and have 25 to go. I've done it in 6 months, and have been far from "perfect" every day. Just stay consistent and do three things: 1) Eat less 2) Eat better and 3) Exercise more. It isn't the easiest thing in the world, but you don't have to overthink it.

    Hi ... I'm Katie. This is my tenth day on MFP. I can't believe how much I have learned about eating and living healthy. This morning I began lifting heavy because not only do I want to lose weight, I want to tone up my body and regain my muscle mass. Feel free to add me to your friends list. Oh, by the way, I'll be 67 next month.

    I'm 62 and joined MFP last Memorial Day, coming up on two years now. I lost at a rate of a little over a pounds a week on average. I eat back my exercise calories and keep pretty active. I went from 230 to 164, but gained back a bit when I retired. I'm working on losing another 20 pounds just now. :wink:
