    I will be 70 in December and I would like to stay healthy. I work part time in a day care, caring for 3,4 and 5 year old children. I say this is what keeps me young. I am going to retire in June, 2017, and I have a fear of getting lazy, fatter and old. I say old because people that I just meet think I am 56-60. I need all the inspiration I can get.

    Hi, you look great. Keep it up. I am doing the keto diet. Iam finally getting the hang of it. Havent lose any weight but the inches are coming off. I need to take photos so i can actually see the difference. Hoping this way of eating will help my fibromyalgia and weight loss a bonus.

    Common theme here is we've all or at least most of us have been on MFP at some point prior to now and we've all lost and regained. Well I am in this group as well and now working on getting back on track. I am 53 and baby stepping my activity level but working on it. I am up to 2 miles of walking, which is sometimes hard as I work night shift at a hospital, its not the nights I work its the day after that I don't walk, I am usually pretty drained. I wouldn't mind the buddy system. Team work keeps me honest.
