Hi, I'm 65, retired a couple years ago, and am finally getting serious about weight loss. Have quite a way to go. I'd like to lose 60 pounds. So far, three pounds down. I have to say that myfitnesspal is helpful, because it makes me accountable and helps me plan ahead.

    Hi Donna Marie! I just joined this group, too. I find the Fitness Pal app really helpful, particularly for watching my calories and macros. I have about 7 pounds to lose; I've lost 51. So it can be done! Isn't easy, though. :)

    Curious to see if this board is still active. I would like to have a group to share my weight loss journey. I turn 69 in less than a month, am very active, track food, but have difficulty losing. Want to lose 15-20 pounds.

    Hey Shap! It doesn't seem to be super active, does it? ;) Happy upcoming birthday! Losing sure is tough, particularly at our age. I've lost 50, looking to take off the last 5.
