    I am also new and trying to figure out how this works. I am 56 and have 27 grand children. I have been over wieght my whole life and tried about every diet and group. After years and alot of praying last Nov I had the lap band done. So far I have lost 60 ponds and have 140 to go. This is not an easy fix and I am learning alot about myself. I would welcome a friend and support. Thanks

    Hi folks. 58 here, 59 later this year. My profile is public and I have a few very supportive MFP friends. Send along a FR if you would like and I'll help where I can.

    I am 60 also
    I joined when I was 58
    Lost over 100 pounds and for the past year have worked to keep it off
    This program works.
    We are all here for the same reason.
    If we can do it so can you
    But it is not easy.

    I am 58, but I guess the OP took their ball and went home.

    I am a 60 year old female who is here every day to give and receive support. I am accepting friends who will eat at least 1200 calories per day, log in daily unless impossible and have an open diary. Good Luck/Cindy

    I will be 54 in two weeks, i have been working out and changing my food choice for five weeks, started at 212, currently 206, weight in on Friday. I will let you know how it goes. My tip is lots of water it worked last week. I drank at least 6 (8oz glasses) last week.
    Try it will lemons or cucumbers.

    I'm 54 but I don't feel it. :) I'm about 10 pounds over goal and I'm finding it very hard to lose. I exercise 3 times a week and try to eat well but I have sweet tooth. My friend just told me about MFP and I love it! Here's hoping it helps. Please feel free to friend me for some motivation. I'm an Aussie female BTW.

    I'm 60 and joined MFP 5 weeks ago when I started the 5:2 diet trying to lose 10 kg. Well I've got to 7kg lost with the help and encouragement of friends on MFP.
