Hi All, I started using MyFitnessPal a few weeks ago. I lost 5lbs and I was starting to tone very nicely. Since then I've moved house (Fife, Scotland) and I'm still getting over a really bad cold & cough which has been going for nearly 4 weeks now so I'm feeling pretty run down and stressed with it all.

Needless to say healthy eating gone out the window as has the long brisk walks and running. I need my mojo back, anyone help this "lady of a certain age" who is struggling a bit?

Happy to hear from anyone....

Grace

    I hope you recover from you cold soon.

    Hi I have been on here for a few weeks. I find all the support so helpful especially when I need some encouragement. I am on here most days happy to help and be helped. I have sent a friend request.

    Not new. Been here a while, but more than willing to add and support new friends! Not quite in the 50+ age group yet ... but will be in a few months!

    Hi,
    Feel free to add me.
    I'm on everyday and have an open diary, although I wouldn't look to me for clean eating tips.
    Good luck to you.

    Just a quick note as I "sleep time" but I wanted to thank everyone who has responded and added me as a Friend. Will catch up soon.

    Nite everyone x

    Hi
    I am in Cambridge, late 50's and training for the London Moonwalk in May - My diary is open and I connect with my Fitbit (when there are no syncing issues!)
    Add me :)
