      52 yrs old mom of 16 yr old son. First time on MFP. Want to get fit for my health and to ski with my son. Entered my first breakfast and only have 550 calories left for the day. Can already see this is going to be enlightening and challenging 😆

      Welcome. I'm 51 with 16 and 14 year old sons that I enjoy skiing with. Last time on the slopes, I was winded barely halfway down and getting up from a fall is getting much harder. This is one of the reasons I'm back on MFP.

      Welcome!

      I am here (back again) to track and lose some weight.

      I won't make any promises I can't keep, but am off to a great start!

      Good luck!

      Happy Friday!!!
      My weight is down, I can see some abs and finally muscles on my bad side arm. I haven't been really watching what I eat but I've been exercising every day. This fitness lifestyle does work!!! Oh and I haven't been watching what I eat really but I've cut out booze and I'm eating smaller portions. I'm excited for our cruise in one week!!!

      Good morning friends. I have been a slacker--had a rough couple of weeks personally, and ate too much and was lazy too much, but things are back to normal now. Hope everyone has a great week!

      Good morning middles agers. I have 4 more days of hard work then I'm on vacation!!! Why do I only give myself a short time to get fit and diet before an event or vacation? Today I'm going to do an easier workout and perhaps go for a walk outside since it's sunny and spring-like and going to be +7C today!!!! Have a great one

      I'm leaving for a holiday on Thursday as well. I think it's 25 hours travelling. But if it should be worth it.

      I have two flights of around 5 hours, with a 2 hour change; and then a 10 hour coach trip.

      Ahhh I guess I shouldn't gripe that we'll have a 30 minute cab ride after we arrive

      PSA.....be careful when using bacon grease to cook mushrooms. I have a nice burn on my right ring finger from some splatter. It doesn't pay to be clumsy 😂🤣
      Happy pancake Tuesday, Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, whatever you want to call it in making pancakes for dinner yay can't wait

      Hi, I’m new here and only a couple of weeks in. My first week I lost almost 10 pounds of which I know was water weight. I just weighed myself and I only lost .9 pound! I’m sticking to my diet, eating good foods and walking 5 miles a day every morning for excruciating. I didn’t expect to lose another 9 pounds but not even losing a whole pound was just depressing. Anyone else been through this? I only started to have a weight issue in my forties and because of this stopped working out altogether. I’m trying to get down a total of forty pounds. My thyroid has been checked and I have already gone through the change. Any help ladies who are in my age range??

      I am back! I am learning about nutrition and using the myfitnesspal app is part of my training. I did use it in the past but found it too cumbersome and just didn't follow through. I am more motivated now, hopefully. I do need to lose lots of weight, unfortunately. Losing weight is a struggle for me. Being mindful and keeping a journal has helped me in the past. So if it works, work it! I look forward to reading your posts and sharing my progress using myfitnesspal.
