I'd like to add some friends in the 55 and older age groups that have similar goals as mine...lose a few pounds, get into better shape and have a more active lifestyle.

    52 1/2 and still "enjoying" the foggy brain, chunky middle, low/non-existent metabolism. HOWEVER - I've given myself a swift kick and decided to make some changes. I would love to support/encourage each other along our journey! :) I'm going to add y'all as "pals" (is that what you call it?!), if you don't mind.

    I think it'great to have such support.... Especially going thru and dealing with this non-existant metabolism, hot flashes and all that fun! Did well, got the water in today and 30 min on treadmill...

    34 year retired hairdresser and now have driven school bus for 19 years,so I went from standing all day to sitting all day. I am 65 got my Humana Insurance and I have quit smoking 4 years ago so in this process I have gained 60 pounds. Have to lose this,passed right on the line of my physical for my CDL because of my weight so I have two years to get this off before my next one. Went to my doctor got all checked out had blood work cholesterol is a little above normal so she said it can be done with weight loss and excersice. Would love to give support to others who are in the same boat and to get support myself. We can do this.

    I'm 58 soon to be 59, I'm losing weight so I can have surgery, bariatric surgery, as I started at 27 stone in February, I am now 26ish (can't weigh myself as to heavy for scales) I need encouragement to keep going, I know that it sounds strange losing weight to have surgery to lose weight but I can only usually about 2 stone before I stick and dont lose any more. Hope your support will keep me on the right track xx
