Turning 50 in March — pounds are getting harder and harder to lose. I need lose at least 50 pounds. Would like friends in their 50s also looking to lose 20+ pounds.

Welcome to MFP! I don't fit your criteria, but wanted to stop, say "hi", and offer some encouragement. It's doable! I was in just about that same spot back in 2015: Lost 50+ pounds at age 59-60, and have been maintaining a healthy weight since, now age 65. Wishing you much success!2

Hi Cathy, I turned 50 back in Sept and I know what you mean about weight being harder to lose. I am aiming to lose about 60 lbs. We can do it! Have a great day!3
