Hi, being over 50 has certainly added some slowness to the weight coming off....gone are the weeks of losing 5lbs.
But I am determined and focused to do it this time. Second half of life is going to be even more fabulous!
So-looking for some friends in my age range.....don't feel 50 but do any of us? Lol...age is only a number but I do think it adds some challenges to this weight loss so need some extra support.
Wanna be my friend and travel this road together :)
Susanne

    Oh, a thread with an age on it that I can meet!!! YAY.....

    I am 85 days here (was longer but reset in the summer) and recently reset my goals and exercise levels having quit smoking.
    My diary is open, interact daily, and I try to comment on as many of my friends posts as possible.

    I do like to have a laugh as well as you can see from the current picture. LOL (BatDadMinion)

    Have a look at profile and if anyone feels I meet their potential friend parameters, add me!!

    Hi,
    Not fifty yet on my way though this summer I had my 47th birthday! Not my fun. When I turned 40 I lost 75 lbs and then got married and had health issues. Put it all back on and then some. My sweet Husband thought those dark circles under my eyes meant I needed to eat, but they didn't that, they meant I needed to get a transfusion.

    so no I am working to get the weight off again. Feel free to add me ..... Becky

    hello susan , your words rang true with me, used to find losing a stone a month easy!

    have just come to my senses and realised that nobody can lose weight for me i have to do it myself! only started last sunday but feeling good by cutting the junk food from my diet,imagining all the toxins falling away from me alongside the flab.

    I would love to chat to likeminded people who have been around the track a few times, i have quite a lot to lose how about you?

    GOOD LUCK
    Carole

    Hi Susanne, I'm 58 and have been on MFP for 70 days. I'm purposely losing weight slowly this time, hoping to reach goal and maintenance sometime before I turn 60. Feel free to add me, too! This site is wonderful!
