I have joined today. My name is Prudence I am 62 yrs old and have a wonderful family. I have retired and now have a sedentary lifestyle apart from walking and gardening. I have put on 3 stone ! I have to loose it quickly as have health problems that will not tolerate the gain. I am feeling excited about joining this community but am worried I will not have the self discipline. looking forward to being part of this community.

    You probably did not gain your weight quickly, so it is unlikely you will lose your weight quickly. MFP suggests 2 pounds maximum as a rate of weekly weight loss. This is a good community and people much more experienced than me will be happy and helpful in answering any questions you may have. There are also many good groups, even some for us older members. Welcome to the site!

    Trying to lose too quickly will not only not be healthy, it will also reduce the likelyhood of weightloss. Effective weightloss is relatively slow, it takes time, patience, commitment, and does not rely on a lot of self discipline. No excuses, welcome to MFP!
