    Hi everyone! David here! I'm 49 years old but feel a lot younger in mind and spirit. Had my left knee scoped several years ago from a torn meniscus, and lost my mom and brother within a short period of time. The subsequent grieving, depression and sedentary lifestyle (first time in my life) packed on an extra 40+ pounds over a couple of years that I want to lose. My mom/brother passed from heart related issues and I don't want to be the next.

    I have been doing yoga for 2+ years now which has helped rehab my knee and get me back to an active lifestyle. I enjoy walking, rucking, hiking, snow skiing, stand up paddleboard (SUP), SUP yoga, sand volleyball, and working out. I recently signed up for my first Reebok Spartan Race to help motivate me long term, so I've started doing treadmill workouts (I am NOT a runner!) and I'm looking to start some Boot Camp or crossfit style classes starting next month. I've been using MFP for 70+ days now and I'm down almost 14 pounds! Would love to connect with some of you to share stories, support, and inspiration! Namaste!

    I am 45. I need to lose about 70 pounds. I am doing a low carb diet this year. My goal is to log my food consistently every day to become more aware about how many net carbs in the things I eat. #Texas

    Waaayyyyyy over 40! (63) Been hanging around MFP for about 3 1/2 years. Lost 95 lbs, but took a nosedive over the holidays. Tightening back up on the logging again to get rid of the winter "accumulation!" Good luck, everyone!
