    Hi! Feel free to friend me, I too am in my 50s and am trying to lose 50 aswell. I joined last January and have lost 30 lbs so far:) it's frustratingly slow, but I think my thyroid and menopause have a lot to do with it. But I'm trying to hang in there and fo the right things. I'm under my calorie goal most days and I exercise at least 30 minutes each day. My thoughts are at least Im healthier and one of these days the metabolism will kick in and hopefully Ill start to lose again:) welcome and good luck. You can do this:flowerforyou:

    I'm looking for some weight loss buddies too. Just started today. I am in my 40s, and have had a really tough time taking off the weight since menopause.

    Hi, I also sent you a friend request. I understand about the age and being harder to lose.

    I am post menopausal, thyroid problem, high blood pressure...and more. I have decided that this is MY year. Starting slowly, hoping to loose 20 lbs. The small town I live in is doing a "Biggest Loser" challenge so I have joined with a friend. You can also friend me, we all need support. How do you send a friend request?

    It's slower, it's harder, but slow and steady wins the race!

    Hi I'm in my 50's too. I started putting on weight 3 years ago and decided to do something about it before it gets too late. The more support the better so I am adding you as my friend. Together we can do it 

    IDK how to add friends but I need some support. I am gaining weight and I need to take it off, it's a matter of life or death for me.
