Any seniors needing to loose weight? Maybe you're retired and haven't had much exercise? Here's the place to support each other & encourage each other as we continue MFP.
Looking forward to hearing from all of you,

I'm in there! I feel we can, at timse, have different issues than the younger ones. I don't readily lose like I did when I was younger and am now happy if I can show a weight loss every week, regardless the amount. I've been through a lot more surgeries now and feel it an accomplishment if I can stay within my calories and not feel hungry. So far so good! Feel free to add me.0

I'm trying to stay motivated!! Lost alot of weight in 2009 (WW) still trying to work the program, but not loosing!!! Really struggling. Weekends are bad-I really try not to over do, but it is sooooo hard! I am afraid that I cannot retire-I would gain to much weight!!!!0

I'm Carol from Chattanooga, Tennessee. I am also 63 years old, mentally, about 27. Just joined today at the urging of my surgeon. I had bariactric surgery in December, but, since I'm single (again) I have no support at home. I have a son and daughter, four grandaughters, and a very large dog. Even with the surgery, weight loss is slow and exercise work. Would love to have you for a friend! I, too, am doing this for health reasons, but also would love to look more graceful. (I take ballroom dance, and I'm tired of being the "fat lady".)0

Welcome everyone! Been at this a while with some success. It is harder for us. I used to joke to my children that my metabolism hasn't slowed down, it has retired! Glad to support anyone, if you would like to add me.0

My birth certificate says I was born in 1951, but I don't feel 60, whatever that is. I ride a trike, have three tattoes and will be getting the fourth as soon as I can, enjoy life, sing, and feel very blessed. I'll be here and want to encourage and support others.0
