I am a 50 year old woman and I have never been this heavy. I went home for a visit last week and saw photos and knew I had to do something. So Monday (it's always Monday) I started my new program. I would like to say I'm really ready and pumped up. I had a successful Monday, I hope today is as good. I like fitness pal. I really like how you can scan the code to update your diary. I feel like it is more accurate than entering your own food. Anyway, nice to meet all of you, looking forward to getting to know you.

    Hi, I am 54 and agree that it is more difficult to stay slim and in shape over 50. The hormonal changes don't help! If you aren't already doing so, I highly recommend you add weight training. It really does help with metabolism and muscle tone loss and is the best anti-ager out there. Not that I'm giving up my facials anytime soon :wink:
