    Hi! My friend and I were talking about our ‘milestones’ coming up. I’d don’t want to be fifty, fat and unfit, and my friend wants to be sixty, sexy and slim! We’re working hard towards our goals.

    Hi, I am 64 today and I’ve lost 80lbs since Feb 27 of this year. I’m down to 193 but I’ve got a few more to go. Then I’m going to begin a weight maintenance diet and start a strength program to really get in shape. Let me know if you have any questions. Feel free to add me.

    I turn 60 at the beginning of next year. My plan is to be healthier in my 60's than in my 50's. Working to put myself first. Others are not asking me to put them first, but I realize I make a lot of decisions based on making others happy. I'm having to turn off their voices, even with kind intentions. What's you plan for getting healthy? Me? I'm breaking up with food. It can't be my friend, entertainment, or therapy.

    Same as you, turning 60 in a few months and want to be stronger, more flexible and more everything when I hit 60! I've got some weight to lose but am putting emphasis on cardio, strength and flexibility. I've been trying to eat low carb/keto which seems to agree with me.

    Happy Birthday. I'm also 64, but gain another year in December. I will be in a gym shortly. I'll add you.
