43... 2 weeks from today LOL
i lost 130 pounds 5 years ago, gained 50 of it back since getting married two years ago. LMAO
so, I know what I'm doing and have done it before. trust me, if *I* can do it, anyone can
need to lose that 50 AT A MINIMUM and in all reality have a bit more to go from that. but lets just take one crisis at a time, shall we?
I eat normal food. I do workout. I eat around 1500 cals/ day. If I can make it fit, its fair game.
Live on a farm in Virginia.
I am unlikely to like or comment on routine things like closing a diary or logging in, but if you actually POST something and I see it, ill generally chime in.
i don't send many friend request but am happy to accept them!

I have 50-60 lbs to lose. I'd really be happy if i could just maintain decent habits. I'm at the point where if I'd lost 1 lbs a month, I'd be at my goal weight. I'm usually ok for a couple weeks and then my son has awhile where sleep is for wimps and I fall apart and spiral for a bit.
Work was also a tad stressful this year.
Sleep is a big issue in my house as well, with both of my kids. And unfortunately when I am overtired I head for some late night snacks which is my demise...0 -
I'm a 42 y/o single dad. I've lost about 84lbs over the past two years, but have gained 20lbs back. I'm looking to lose 60lbs and get to my goal weight of 195lbs in 2021 as well as developing skills to maintain my weight loss, and I know having a community of people with similar goals will go a long way in helping me to do so. Please add me.4

Hi! I'm 46 and I have about 40lbs to lose. My downfall is I love baking and cooking. With my husband and I in the household, someone's' got to eat it and I only make one size. LOL! So portion control is an issue with me.
I am dedicated to lose this weight and make 2021 my year to get healthy and fit. I am here to ask for support from others going through the same thing. Cheers to all and lets do this!
Feel free to add me.

Good morning troops. I'm not new here, just tired if that makes any sense. I'm 48 with about 30lbs to lose. My only child is getting married in May and I'd really want to lose a little bit by then. I start over it seems like all the time. My husband and son don't have any weight issues so I kinda feel alone in this. Feel free to add me, I really need some support.1

Im 46, soon to be 47. I’m only 5’3, but was told by the doctors that people shrink as we get older! If I re-measured I’m probably 5’2. I started losing several years ago weighing 255.
I’m 185 now and have struggled for 5 years to get to my goal of 155 (a total loss of 100 pounds).
The older I get pre-menopause seems to making it much more difficult to lose. Apparently Hot flashes are not burning calories.
I’d like to know who else is experiencing slow results and how you think it might be hormone related. Any tips?2 -
43 here. I lost over 40 pounds in 8 months when I started my journey back in 2019. I've managed to keep it off all through 2020. I haven't missed a log day since I started. Feel free to add me. I'm very active in my physical fitness and I'm on here every day.0

Hi! I'm a 43 yo busy mama of 4 boys and a nurse who gained the covid-19 (and then some) in 2020 due to all the stress of pandemic life and my job. I've now got about 50 pounds I want to lose, but more than that I really need to get healthy again, stop feeding my body with junk, move my body more and just find better ways to manage the stress of life (since it's clearly not going away anytime soon)2

I bake a lot. I don't eat most of it. skinny Minnie hubby does. but if you learn how to calculate calories correctly, and use the recipe builder, you can fit treats in your daily calorie goals. and figure out the calories/ gram for anything you make. last week I had apple pie. I'm banking calories this week for my birthday on Thursday. cause... CAKE! glorious cake! at 3 calories per gram LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOO doesn't sound like much, but it is LOL0
