:D Hi Everyone

I am 47 next month and I have middle age spread!!! It is becoming more difficult to lose weight and easier to gain weight as I am getting older!!! I have increased a dress size over the last 2 years!!! I have recently joined a gym and hope this will help!!! I LOVE using MyFitnessPal and only recently found this section on the app!!!

It would be great if I had more friends on here to keep my motivated!!! My username is Rawlybabe!!! If you feel the same way add me as a friend and we can help each other!!!

Keep up the good work!!!

Rawlybabe :D:D:D

    You can definitely do it. I turned 60 in January and I'm in the best shape of my adult life.
