    I made some progress in my 50s but now I am working full time with a commute and struggling to get in more exercise and that helps me lose. So I am here ready to get fitter too in my 60s

    Hi! I can't believe I'm turning 65 in a few months!! I know I need to lose weight (about 70 pounds), and exercise. I have fibromyalgia, and I hurt a lot, but wonder if I'm using this problem as an excuse to not exercise. When I really try to be honest with myself, I'm pretty sure I'd feel better if I at least walked more everyday. I spend most of my time by myself (my hubby is an over-the-road trucker), and the hobbies that I enjoy doing require me to sit most of the time. I quilt and do family history. Joining "My Fitness Pal" is my start at getting healthier. Thanks for listening! :smile:

    I am 66 and trying hard to shed some pounds too. The sixties are no longer old age! I just decided, enough was enough and am going all out to get fitter and enjoy life. The best of luck to you.

    Here's a link to an MFP group for "seasoned citizens". Stop by there if you like. Lots of good folks who have been there and done that.

    I'm 63 and started a new weight lose journey at the beginning of this year ( I only eat sea food as meat, no cheese, no eggs). I love to dance so I do LETS DANCE dvd maybe twice a week. I also have a mini trampoline where I've placed close to the sofa so during commercial instead of fast forwarding thru them I use that time to jump at least three times a week for about 500 jumps. I love walking also so during the worst weather I walk on my treadmill and on other days I walk outside somewhere everyday even Malls
