    Hi newbies! Started yesterday, the "covid stone" has added to a slow increase over the last 2/3 yrs. It's just been creeping on. I've set myself an initial target is to lose 35lbs, and hopefully by Christmas. Need to get back to healthy range. Got a shock when I realized my BMI is now 30. I'm in Ireland. Hoping to get support here to keep me motivated!

    Hello everyone. I am 52 years old. Trying to get my eating and exercise back on track. I have gained 28 pounds in the past year and feel miserable. On a positive note though, I joined my fitness pal, signed up for a 12 week body transformation program at a nearby Bootcamp and am giving up drinking at least for the next 3 months. Would love to chat and support one another

    Count me in! I’m 55. A few years ago I was looking great; 15 pounds lighter and working with a trainer at the Y. Now I feel as if the years all hit on me at once, I lost my oomph and the weight creeped on again. I never wanted to be one of those yo-yo dieters, but I love to bake and eat good food, so eventually I sabotage my good healthy habits by letting it all go wild! I could use some comrad support!

    I turned 49 in May and set a goal to lose 50 by 50. I am finding losing weight so much harder at this age. Lost 5 so far and have 45 to go!

    Hi all! I’m a young 58. I’ve been on MFP for awhile now and have lost over 100 lbs and have kept most of it off. I’ve had a slight hiccup due to the change up in my routine with Covid around. But, I’m moving back on track.

    Any or all of you are welcome to connect to me. I try to encourage and be supportive and not judgmental.

    Either way, I wish you all success at your goals.

    I'm 56 and am a yo yo dieter. Right now, I'm positioning meals and focusing on carbs instead of calories and am losing weight. Would love to be added as a friend!

    48 next month. I (re)joined MFP only a week ago, as the weight is slowly creeping up again and I've in fact just hit the overweight category. Time to reign it in again.
