    I get so fed up with doctors who say "Well, you are 50! Get over it and quit this nonsense!" They act as if we are doing something bad by trying to remain healthy with as few prescriptions as possible. I guess they had rather we sit in our recliners and get as at as that sort of lifestyle would make their wallets! GRRRRRRR!!!!!

    ETA: Although my sweet husband did go for a cardiac stress test this past week and the doctor (not our usual one) did tell him he was looking pretty good for 40. (He is 51.) :drinker:

    Would love to be a part of your group! I am 49 and i am dealing with hormonal issues due to maintenance medication i have to take for reduced chance of breast cancer recurrance. Which also can cause weight gain too. I'm new to this site but i have lost 20 lbs since changing my lifestyle in January.

    I would love to join in. I am currently right in the middle at 45 and need the motivation. I have made a new commitment to really stick with MFP rather than my past attempts. A group going through the same battles would be a blessing. My main issue is I am hypothyroid, and that totally has messed up my metabolism.

    Count me in! I used to be able to eat what I wanted and stay slim. Since I've got older everything has changed and I'm finding it a challenge sometimes to adjust to it all. Would love some support and would love to offer that to anyone who needs it

    Count me in as well please :smile: I am 52 and never had trouble losing weight until the last few years. My weight has crept up and I now weigh a tad more than when I was pregnant with my last child :huh: I know age has a part to pay but I am so disheartened when I have been ultra good for weeks and although my clothes are loser the scales always say the same! Anyway, I am using fitnesspal every day to log my foods and hope this time can start to shift it. Did see a 2lb weight loss this week so maybe this time it will work lol. It has got to the point where I now feel disgusted with my body and feel so miserable :cry:

    Hello

    I am 45 always been a size 8 UK but I started expanding in the middle section about a year ago so I now workout 6 days a week and sometimes pre plan my meals to stop me buying Pizzas!! It is working and I am gradually sliding back into my old clothes. Please count me in because it's not easy


    Thank you

    I am in too. 43 and working out 4-5 days per week and counting calories daily...weight is NOT coming off and neither are inches. I am currently restarting C25K for a race in June, hoping the change in exercise will help.
