    I lost 30 lbs. several months ago and have 30 more to lose. I need to pick up the momentum here and get serious again so I can get back to losing. Count me in. I am having way more days where I eat over my calories than days I eat within my calories, I want to change that. I really would like to lose at least 10 by summer.

    Cool. everyone is on board. I hate over eating guys. I feel gross after I eat a lot and not only do I feel gross psychologically...I'm physically sick. All the grease in my body. I feel like my body is trying to flush out the toxins and it's slowly moving its wheels :*(

    I hear you. After I eat healthy for a while, and my body gets used to it, I'm not such a fan of the junk food. My body doesn't like it and tells me so...

    So what does everyone have planned for the week-end if anything? We have two of our grandchildren staying overnight so I will be hanging out with them over the course of the week-end and sticking to my eat clean plan. I wish it wasn't so cold out today, I could take them outside, but maybe another day.

    I really like this board and hope you are all gaining strength from the support. Everyone have a great week-end and I will check in again later on !

    I would like to join this group also. I need to thirty plus pounds. This board sounds like it has the motivation and support that will help me. I have lost 17 pounds and really struggling to lose more. I am 52 years old and it really hard to lose weight because of my age. For the past 2 weeks I have been doing cardio exercise at 3 times a week. Hopefully the weight will start coming off.

    I'm eating a lot cleaner...I can't realisticly do it all the time. But since joining MFP, my diet has improved drastically. I'm eating a ton more fruit and veggies too (raw) or steamed...trying to avoid the frozen variety. No fastfood, unless it can hardly be avoided, in that case I try to make the best choice, and not eat the whole thing...remembering to eat slowly has been a big thing for me, to give my body time to tell my brain that it's full....that sounds funny but it works for me! Good luck on your journey. I hope you have a life long lifestyle change!

    I'm close to your age, will be 50 next year, and I understand how slow it goes at this age when trying to lose weight. I am eating clean, and plan to keep it up and then maintain when I get where I want to be. Glad to have you aboard with all of us. We are all here to support each other. Best wishes!

    Nice! I'm glad to hear you're changing to such a great lifestyle. I understand not being able to realistically do it all the time. It doesn't matter as the healthiest you can eat will go a long way with your insides and out. Wishing you all the best on your journey too! Welcome!
