Hello, I am 53 years old, vertically challenged at 5'1" and weigh 141.6. Started this weight loss journey at 146 and my goal is 130. I am so frustrated with the difficulty of losing this weight and I realize that my age has alot to do with it. I am looking for encouragement and suggestions from others that are struggling also. I have been using this site for a week and love the tracking features.

    Good luck to you! Anyone, any age can lose weight, you just have to be patient. Good job so far and take it one choice at a time.

    It's a good idea to make sure you keep track of your food, it definitely helps me stop falling off the wagon as I don't want to write the food down that I have eaten! It also helps you to realise where you're going wrong, if you're snacking too much etc.

    I also find it's really helpful to follow the blogs and forums, as you realise how many other people have the same goals which is a brilliant motivator! Best of luck.
