    44 yo - Not new to MFP, but have slacked off for a long time. Lost my mom this fall and that has been a catalyst for me to take better care of myself.

    Well, I have signed up for a Diva Half marathon in June. That will probably be the extent of my races for 2017.
    Do plan on doing some major hikes though - the Inca Trail in Peru being one. :)

    I will be 50 in April and have 25 pounds to lose. I started after Thanksgiving and lost 7 lbs by logging my food (every bite), planning ahead, and working out 4 times a week. Then Christmas and hosting came. I've gained two pounds and dropped my good habits. Started back up again yesterday to get some momentum! Any tips?

    I'm in. Bristol, UK....I'm 56 and about four stone over weight...everything hurts, especially my knees. So, here's to a New Year and a New Start, with what seems to me to a bunch of youngsters...chuckle. I feel that this year I want to start growing old disgracefully, get back to being an energetic rocker once more!

    48 here and feel free to add me. I did really well on MFP in 2015, both before and after a total knee replacement, but got seriously sidetracked in 2016. I did receive a fitness tracker for Christmas, and I think it is a convenient reminder, if nothing else. And after the holidays settle out, I need to figure out how to get my Pilates routine going again. I did them for over a year before the surgery, and the core strength saved me during recovery.
