in Introduce Yourself
Hello! I'm new to fitness pal...I lost 90lbs 7 years ago on Weight watchers, gained about 50 over the past 4 years due to divorce. I turn 50 next summer (june) and really want to get this off before I turn another year older!!

    I am only 30 but I need to lose 50 lbs too. I had lost about 50-60 lbs in 2007 with weight watchers. and after having 2 kids, i am way back up and so unhappy with it!

    I also made the vow to lose 50 by 50, but I did not get serious in time. Started in Sept and only have until January. I will make the 50 (and then some, and then some more), just not by January. Good luck, you can do it!

    Hi all, I'm new, have only been tracking for about a week. Turned 50 in July and am trying to get fit before the next birthday. Hoping to lose 50+. I'll take all the motivators I can find.

    I'm 47 and just lost 32 pounds. I feel years younger, losing weight was the best gift I have ever given myself. I just started mfp to hold myself accountable. No way am I going to gain it back!!
