Hi, Been on the diet bandwagon for years. Weight up and down but currently out of control with highest weight in my life. At age 60, I think its time to address and do something for me! Hoping this helps. Hello to all and will try to check in frequently. Any tips you have are welcome!

    Hi, you can do this. I am 56 just getting serious about it myself. Doing the low carb thing hoping that will be better for me. But i am a sugar fanatic. But so far not so bad. I think im just determined now. Good Luck and Im sure you can do this.

    We are in this together. About to hit 56 and looking at retirement creeping up. I want to correct my habits now.

    Here's an excellent post to get you started
    A guide to get you started on your path to Sexypants

    My personal advice would be
    - start slow and focus on tracking and meal planning. This is a marathon not a sprint, slow and steady wins the race
    - join some groups of interest and find good friends to add
    - join several challenges, they help with weekly accountability.
