    53 years old here, trying to reach my goal and quit smoking. Feel free to friend me if you like.
  • Hello Emma,
    I'm looking for a more mature group as well. I am trying to get to a healthier weight as well. What have you tried so far?

    Thanks to members who joined this group .Have been off website since July 2014, and guess what i stopped watching what i eat and gained twenty pounds back in five months.So hopefully some of these members are still in touch would also welcome new members fifty and older to this forum for support and encouragement and hopefully i can encourage someone too.

    There's actually an ongoing 50+ group on this forum that's very active. It starts every month. I don't know how to find the actual link for it, but in Motivation and Support it's currently called: WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR DECEMBER 2014
