  • Hi Melissa! I lived in South Florida fir decades...moved to a very different part of Florida a few years ago.
  • Welcome. I’m in a very similar situation, although I’m a little older. I have twenty pounds to lose. I had a few false starts as recent world events really threw me. But, I feel stronger of late. We CAN and WILL do this. :)
  • I’ve done WW three times. Made GW each time. And some other programs. Things aren’t “sticking” We know people who are always at GW. Wrongfully , I suppose ,we make fun of them as they won’t have , for example , pie on Thanksgiving. Is that what it takes to remain at GW? Constant vigilance 365 days a year? Idk. I saw a…
  • 1. Using food as a balm when under stress. 2. Not getting a better handle on stress. 3. Boredom. 4. Not having clear cut goals 5. Fatigue 6. Allowing tempting foods in the house 7. Could use more support and I just don’t have this. But , then again many people don’t and do well so I should not use this as any excuse.
  • I’m 5’1” and 160. My doctor suggested 145 pounds. I technically should be less. I’m over 55 and it’s been hard. Always looking for motivation. I do well and then fall apart. Recent world and personal life stressors have caused havoc as I’m certainly a stress eater. Five pounds up , down and up again. I need to come here…
  • Thank you VERY much for the support. Knock on wood and crossing myself I’m back on track. I’m considering looking into Pilates. Anyone do this? Thank you.
  • I’m 5 foot 1 and a half inches. Similar stats. I need to lose 20 lbs. looking for support. Over 55 years of age. Not totally sure how to use the community area of my fitness pal...so be patient with me. Definately need support. Thank you.
  • Hello! I am over 55. I have twenty pounds to lose. Looking fir like minded women my age to help each other in the W loss struggle. Only one or two. I’m on meds that might make it a little harder. And I can only do light exercise which also likely makes it a little harder. One more thing...I’m a stress eater. Need support.…
  • Unfortunately, I’m leaving shortly for an appointment and can only peruse this very moment. I’m very upset that I’m having way too much trouble losing weight this go around. I think causing a little extra chaos fir me might be meds, age and stress from silly family things and the weird stuff going on in the world. I need…
  • Paz...I wish I saw this earlier. Ok. No big deal. I’m super duper similar in stats. Can you tell us what has helped you the most?
  • My first name starts with A. I’ve had weird identity theft before so I tend to be ultra careful revealing things on line. I’m around age 60. I live in Florida. I was doing decently, but fell apart with the virus. I think I’m doing better now. I have a few health issues and I know if for no other reason, getting to a lower…
  • I love those egg bite whites from Starbucks when traveling or very rushed. I sometimes buy an extra, wrap it up good and freeze it...especially if I know I have a trip coming up and I have to leave super early. There are two to a serving. I often only have one. If I’m very hungry, I’ll have both. They are delicious. A bit…
  • Last night’s dinner was oven made Talapia. A little oil, lemon, oregano. A large side of riced cauliflower and riced brocolli. This all was low in calories. So, I treated myself to a scoop of Strawberry Halo Top ice cream a little later. (I’ve discovered I can’t eat a lot of this...otherwise I won’t lose weight as well.…
  • Happy New Year! I caught an extremely bad cold/cough New Year’s Eve and still haven’t set goals due to being sick for three weeks! Yikes! But...I did know I wished to lose weight. So, I am on this APP and using it regularly. It’s been super helpful! :)
  • I’m new. Well, new to Premium. Add me. I don’t know how to add friends yet! I’m your age, Cherylere. I need to lose 15-20 pounds. I want to see how I look first at 15 pounds lost. As one gets older, you can lose too much in the face. I really like this APP a lot. I’ve had trouble in the motivation department lately. I got…
  • This morning I had a scramble: one egg, one egg white, tiny piece of feta cheese, a little spinach, a little onion and a little sun dried tomato. It had a lot of flavor and really filled me up.
