    Hi friends! I am closer to 70 than 60 and am trying to lose30lbs by mid Jan. when we go on a trip to Costa Rica. I have been posting since July 20 and have lost 17lbs. I live in Arizona where it is still pretty hot. The only excersise I get is in the pool. Going to attempt to do Walking Aerobics starting Mon., but I have RA and have trouble with my feet & knees. Five years ago I lost 85lbs and have put back on 30lbs. I am determined to do it again this time and keep it off! If I can give any support I will try.

    Its funny the reason I am trying to lose a little weight and shape up is because I will be traveling to England the 10th of Oct I am a 55 yr old female that lives on a farm in Iowa in the US Been trying to lose 20lbs now for about 6 months Lost the first 12 lbs rather easily and then kinda stalled out during the summer( too much ice cream) With the help of this site I have now lost another 2 lbs or so

    Hi I joined last year but I didn't stick with it, just came back 2 months ago. I'm doing much better this time around and I feel more in control. I too have a long way to go. I'm over 50 and any of you feel free to add me as a friend.

    Count me in. I joined three days ago. Wow, logging in my daily consumption has already shed light on why I have not lost any weight. I don't feel like I eat a lot but when you actually log it you really see just how much everything adds up to. I plan on sticking to this, it's hard doing it because I like to make sure that my fiancé eats. Wish me luck.

    Hi I am in my 60's. Joined MFP last year although I had been on a challenge elsewhere and lost 10 kilos ( 22 lbs) before I joined here. Missed logging for 6 days in December due to a stay in hospital but log every single day, losing gradually; a few ups and downs but realize this is a lifestyle change and I am here for the long haul. I try to walk every morning, it is my main exercise as I am a bit limited due to still recovering from my surgery, and hope to be able to do different exercise later on. I live Down Under in Australia, new friends always welcome, and I try to comment most days on my friends posts and support as much as I possibly can. We are all on this wonderful journey to improve our health! The best advice I can give is "Never give up" and Life always gives you a second chance- it is called Tomorrow.

    Hi, my name is Kim and I am from the US. I have only been doing this for a week and my life is spent mostly in a cubicle at work. I will be exercising for the first time in years and trying to watch my calories. I have never been successful doing this by myself and hope that I can meet friends here to support each other. BTW I'm 56 and going through the change of life that nobody ever told me was going to be so difficult. Would love to be your friend.
