    I love these over 50 threads! We're all so young at heart! I'm going to be 60 (um... how did that happen?) in April, though I feel 25 years youngers than that. I'm done with the meno/permeno etc., but am certainly happy to share my experiences with that whole process! Glad to be here!

    At the Community Tab, click on Groups. Then do type in the "Find a Group" box "Women of a Certain Age". Click on the green "Join Group" button, and you're in. Welcome! These ladies are terrific, so please be sure to send out some friend requests.

    Sorry I didn't answer yesterday, I wasn't on after the morning.

    I am 56, hopefully past menopause, and I am just tired of the extra weight. Don't have alot to lose but it is extra pounds all the same....

    Just turned 50 and could use support. Not a self motivator. Would love to have others to keep in touch with! :bigsmile:

    Over fifty and I love this site for all the support and friendships. We do have our challenges, slowing metabolism and menopause. But we can get though it all with support. Please send me a friend request!

    I am 57, well past menopause (which left me this ugly belly fat and weight gain, by the way). I've lost 16 pounds since I started this in November and the support of both others on this site and my family have been a huge factor! I'd love to friend any or all of you so we can travel this long road together. Send me your friend or group invites!

    Hello, I'm 53 today and yes, I know what you mean by hotflashes. I hit menopause at 50 and don't know how long these hotflashes will last. So please add me.

    Welcome. I just started here yesterday. Of course it isn't my first time at trying to lose weight. I turned 51 in December. Time to get back on track. I lost 35 pounds in 2009 and slowly gaining back so must stop it now before it gets out of control. I never did lose to where I wanted to be so I am shooting for 15 lbs. We can do it!
