I'm fairly new...or I guess I should say starting over again. I'm 58 and need to lose about 100 pounds but St this point, I'm setting small goals and would be happy with 75 lb loss.

    Btw I just saw there's a another thread titled "Women 50+ for December 2016". Check it out?

    Hi, I am 68 years old and have had the same goal for the past three months, and will continue with that goal for December: 15 minutes 2x/day of walking (in home). That is the minimum. I like to do it with dvds, either my own, from the library, or from You tube. Also enjoy some stretching and light weight work. This is a slow journey, but I want to focus mostly on making better habits and choices, rather than just weight loss. So here's luck and best wishes for all of us for a healthy, meaningful December!

    My weekly check-in: Sticking to my goals. Yesterday marked 100 days of logging on to MFP. Weight loss is about 10 pounds. I don't mind it being so slow, as I consider this a big lifestyle change, as far as eating and fitness go. Any progress is a good thing! Cheers to all of us who are just trying to be better!
