    Hi Jocy50,

    I'm a 56 yr old grandmother of 5 with about 80 lbs to shed. I'm on the site almost daily, though more so over weekends than during work days. I'm positive and tactfully truthful and would love being one of your friends.

    Hi Jocey, 59 year old grand mother here and I have reached my goal but when I get down about not having my grandaughter and family near me I start to eat. Look forward to watching your journey. One thing I learned over this past year was that you are never too old. My inspiration was my grandaugter, I wanted to be able to play with her like a kd myself so I lost 35 pounds.

    Hi Jocy,
    I am 59 and a Grandma wannabe. Have a son getting married next March. Anyway I had over a hundred to lose when I started and still a significant amount to go. I will be here learning to maintain when I reach my goal. I am doing this in a slow sustainable way. Feel free to friend me or not but best wishes on MFP.

    Hi Jocy50, I'm new to this site too, but you can add me as a friend. I'm a Grandma too of four beautiful grandgirls. I'll join that Grandma Club too.

    I hope the encouragement of others will move you towards your goal. I believe we can all do it together. So far I am liking this site a lot.

    Welcome to MFP! I too am a grandma and have about 40lbs to lose. Feel free to add me. I'm trying to make better food choices. I'm still working on that, but I'm usually on here everyday and love reading everyone's inspirational stories and get great ideas for some delicious food! We can motivate each other!

    Hi, I am a grandma too. 5 grandkids and another coming in September. Add me if you like, I enjoy encouraging people on their journey and really like seeing them succeed. I lost a little weight before I joined MFP so I have lost 42lbs. I want to join the grandma club.

    I'm a Nana of 4 with another one coming in the fall. I have not even seen my youngest grandson, born in 2011, except by internet as he lives with his parents and big brother in Aberdeen, Scotland, and I live in USA, state of Georgia. I'm on my way to being 61 real soon, and I want to be able, like one poster stated, to get into the floor and play with my grandchildren. I need to lose 60lbs so count me in for membership in the Grandma Club.
