    Count me in. 53 and trying to lose another 30 lbs or more. Exercising regularly and trying to control my eating at least 6 out of 7 days per week. To lose weight, it seems that I have to do a lot better for a lot longer than I used to when I was younger:( But we can do this! Not giving up. Accountability is a great thing!

    Hi, I'm 51 and hit my goal...but keeping it off isn't as easy as you might think. I can always use more friends to motivate...and help me stay motivated as well.

    Count me in. I am 45 and lost 30 so far. Getting harder now but hopefully on my way to my college basketball weight with 25 more! On a quest to dunk again and getting close. I started playing basketball in a league and that has really helped. Would love to give and receive support from all.

    I'm in too... I'm 45 and struggling with weight gain. I've never been this heavy and I miss the energy level I had 50 pounds ago. Would love a 40-50 age support group.

    Hey All!!!!

    Put on a lot of weight as my old football knee started to go south. Then when it went and had to be replaced with a total knee....gained a lot more. Now it is time to get back to where I was - hiking, snowshoeing, hunting and haveing a great time out of doors. Time to be healthy and wise,

    Count me in...i am 52 years old and feel like my body is 82! I am sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. So I have decided that TODAY is the start of a journey to get my life back on track. I will be advising 50 lbs of body fat to get lost, I will be introducing myself to the equipment at the gym tomorrow, and I will soon be inviting my self confidence to come back to stay. It's starts NOW. This sounds like a great group to be connected with to help me meet my goals.

    I'm 45 and will turn 46 in September. Would love to join a group like this with people who understand how difficult weight loss has become as we age. Losing weight is getting harder the older I get. I've been back on MFP for nearly a month now and haven't lost a pound. I workout and give it my all to no avail so right now is a very upsetting, depressing and quite annoying time. Count me in!!!

    I am 52 and have lost 12 pounds although I have been at a stand still for the last few weeks. Ugh. It isn't easy. I have changed a lot of bad habits, increased my exercise, and I am trying to be more successful with portion controls.. I am happy to support anyone who needs some cheering on! Feel free to add me.
