Hi there! I'm 53, and a lifelong 'chunker' too, except for a few times after severe dieting, but those never lasted long. I'm looking to make the change permanent this time. Friend request being sent.

Hi, I'm 58 & am definitely looking for motivational friends over 50. The first month I was here I lost 8 pounds & then later on gained 5 back --- kind of a yo-yo dieter. I'm not quitting though. If you don't quit you eventually get to the end. You can add me as a friend it you need more motivation.

Hi!
I just turned 57 and have been on MFP since mid-June. I had a couple slimmer years but mostly I've been heavy forever
I've lost 28 pounds since the first of the year, with another 45 pounds to go!
This is the first I have made and have no idea how this works!

I just saw this post and thought I'd take a moment to respond. I am 58 and will be 59 in October. I was sleeved on 2/5/14 and learn more and more about post op experiences everyday when I log into MFP. However, individuals aged 50+ may experience a whole set of different obstacles just due to our age (i.e., inability to lose weight, medication issues, skin elasticity, mobility, energy, etc.).

I would love to be friends.

Sent friend requests to all on this thread ... We in the over 50 crowd have our unique issues. For instance, if you look at the diet diaries of some of our younger friends here, many of their food choices are banned by our doctors due to hypertension, cholesterol, etc.

Hi Vanessa
My name is Lori & I am 55 & also have 3 grown children. My goal is to loose 20lbs by Christmas. I just started this journey this week. So far I have lost 3.5 lbs, by doing Beachbody's 3 Day Refresh. I am starting Chalean Johnson's 7 Day Diet Challenge on Monday. I don't think my problem is eating the wrong foods, but I do have a motivation problem with working out. I am hoping to find some people to help me stay motivated & keep me accountable to a workout plan. I am going to start my workouts with Beachbody's 21 Day Fix workout program & walking my dog "Zoe" one mile everyday. Wish me luck as I wish you the best too.

I have dieted most my adult life! I have lost a ton and gained a ton and a half! Well not quite but it seems that way! Losing wt over 50 is much more difficult! This time I have to keep it off!
