    Hi. I passed 51 not long ago. I'm not drastically dropping the weight but have lost 8-9 pounds in the past 6 1/2 weeks. I plan to lose 40 pounds even if it takes me a year. We can do it!

    You learn a lot about eating right from Weight Watchers. The principals are the same: Eat less and move more. I will add: measure and weigh your food; track what you eat; Eat plenty of vegtables, fruits & whole grains. Watch your nutrition breakdown on this site. I added sodium and fiber also. I try to eat extra protein but stay under on everything else. I'm 54 and determined that this is the last time I do this. Lot's of obesity related health issue, I have a total of 100 lbs. to lose and figure it will take 2 years. But this is a great community and I get lot's of feedback. Feel free to friend me if you'd like!

    You can do this. I'm 58 and have lost almost 54 pounds since end of February 2011. Make a lot of friends on this site. It really helps to motivate you. :smile:

    I ditto the above posts, I am 53 and just started this week but started loosing the week before. If it wasn't for this site I would not have kept it up as I don't have much willpower. I had a very warm welcome, and unlike slimming clubs there is no judging on here. So welcome from me, I will be around for a while so please add me if you wish.

    All the best ! Babz xx
