    Yes, the tracking is what has worked for me. Just being made aware of the calorie content of so many foods has encouraged me to not eat them. I have eaten some of my favorite foods, in moderation, and then just counted them in my daily calorie total and that has worked well for me. I am near my goal and am determined to not get back to where I was as I have done so many times in years past after successful weight loss. BTW, I started MFP right after my 50th birthday in November. :smile:

    Turned 50 last October, and decided it was time to take back my life. Since then I have lost just over 33 lbs and I'm keeping it off.

    Good for you! I am close to your age and joined because my wife "suggested" it. Joined 4 days ago and have lost 6 pounds so far.

    I'm 43 almost 44. It is taking a bit longer. But I am not restricting calories, I need them for what I do. I'm trying to find the balance, and I seem to be. Please add me. :)

    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.
