    2.2 lbs down this week. Guess those early morning walks and increased water goal is paying off.
    Good to hear!

    Hi folks... I’ve enjoyed reading the posts up to now and see that this is a supportive group. I’d like to join in, my stats are above. I had some success with noom last summer but the quarantine is a challenge to my habits and I could use some support. My big struggles are emotional eating and late night eating. My focus is fitness for sure and being healthy. I turned 51 in April and want to stay lean and fit in middle age. I noticed that a few of us are around fifty. One thing that I learned last year is that even people with different struggles,backgrounds, situations, ages, etc. can show support for each other online and it really helps. Thanks everyone! I friended a bunch of you... friend me! I’m new to mfp so I’m still figuring some stuff out.

    Goal weight 160

    I will take this .4 loss and run with it. After going up and then still not losing for weeks! This makes my ❤️ happy!

    Non scale challenge for this week is pick an exercise and do 100 of it this week. (Sit-ups, crunches, squats, push-ups, lunges, etc)
    I will be doing crunches!

    Welcome! I turned 49 a couple of weeks ago and my goal is to lose 50 by 50. It’s not my ultimate goal but if I can get there I will be happy and I know it’s going to be a long road so I’m trying to be realistic about how long it will take.

    (Re)starting weight: 57.7lb to go
    Today's weight: 48.8lb to go

    Have just realised I've crept below that 50lb target. :) I mean, it's still a huge amount to go, but I'm getting there. If I'm really disciplined, I might even get there for Christmas... Now, that would be an awesome gift to myself.
