    Hi There - My name is Theresa and I'm going to be 52 next month and just joined MFP a couple of days ago - I was just looking to see if there were any entries from people around our age and voila - there you were! Good luck and please add me as a friend if you'd like.

    Am coming back after a few months, go to weight watchers also and have 6 pesky pounds that won't budge, believe me 6 is as hard as 60.

    Water!!!! I hate it! any suggeations?

    How do you feel about seltzer water? Comes in several different "flavors" but it's not sweetened with anything and it's zero calories.

    I think I am now the oldest at 66

    59 years here..as of Jan. 15th... told my husband I'll be looking really hot by the time I'm dead....LOL :) Oh well at least now I think I have somewhat of a handle on this losing weight instead of gaining it ( I had a really good handle on that, LOL) looking to lose at least 90 or as close to that as i can.

    I am 58 and my birthday is coming up in a couple of months. Welcome.

    Welcome. With all your mature people out there, someone should create a Mature Adult group. Your nutritional needs and conversation is likely going to be very different than most 20-30 year olds. You also might be able to escape some of the "immature talk" that tends to happen on the younger groups.
    There are quite a few just search the groups for 50+ and see which one suits you. I drink a large cup of green tea and then I switch to water. Where my neice works they make this yummy water and float some fruit in it and maybe mint not sure. It is so delicious. They do a different one each day.

    There are lots of us out here - I'm 70, but only feel 25 - trouble is my body gives up on me! Keri, who has replied above me moderates a group for 40/50 pluses so well.
    We have a real incentive as golden oldies to make the most of our remaining years, and keep healthy for as long as possible. There are quite a few of us who are beginning to experience some of the problems of ageing who can help others through it.
    Welcome!
