in Introduce Yourself
Hi,

I joined MFP a few weeks ago and am so totally impressed with it. I love the way I can keep track of food/calories/exercise.

I'm 63 years old and have at least 50 pounds to lose, I'd love to lose more but I think I'm being realistic here.

I would really like to find some friends in my age group (plus or minus a decade...lol) who are having the same issues I am having: -the pounds seem to melt so so so much slower once you reach a certain age. And the "body" issues: skin not so elastic any more leaves some very undesirable flabby areas. Knowing I'm not the only one with these issues would help a lot.

Here's to new beginnings.

    I am so proud and impressed that you are taking this on! I wish I could get my mom to take something on seriously like this but she won't.

    I'm not 63, but I inspire all ages because we'll all be there. I'll be 52 this year. I feel better and look better than I have in a long time. I would love to be your friend. You are adding years to your life and quality of life by going on this journey. If god takes me tomorrow, I know that have taken care to be the best that I can be. Getting older does not have to mean getting out of shape, sitting around. I'm taking it on my feet! Lets go baby, lets go!

    Hi,
    You can add me if still looking for friends. I understand all too well how it hard to lose weight due to changes in metabolism.
