Just joined.......Hello :)

Hi all,

I've just joined. I got a new fitbit charge 3 for Christmas and full years gym membership for next year that includes the gym, various classes and swimming.

I am nearly 48 years old, only 5'2" and I weight 13st 7lb
My BMI is almost 35.
My goal is to reach a "healthy" BMI, so looking at the range for my height, I am aiming for 9st as my ultimate goal.

I have successfully lost weight in the past but it's getting harder as I get older, although that will not stop me nor be an excuse.
I might just have to try harder and I plan to do weights at the gym to help not only maintain but increase my muscle mass so that my metabolism picks back up what it's lost due to age related muscle loss.

Taking this 1 week at a time

I am sure there are many my age with a fair bit to shift, hopefully I'll get to know some of you through 2020
