You look great!

Paige: Don't give up on the dating sites yet. I know my son also uses the dating sites occasionally and he is the type of guy I think you would like. So the good guys are out there. Be patient, be careful and don't settle for less than you deserve. When the time is right, the right partner will show up-- just keep your…

Female Age 62 5'. 4 SW 202 CW 194 GW. 152 to 160 :smile:

My husband of 35 yrs is very sweet but has the worst eating habits. Whats worse is that he has a small appetite and wants me to share his meal choice. Like Chips and Cheese deluxe or pizza with everything or chicken wings. For dinner at home he loves variety so its was not unusual for us to have 3 main dishes in one night…

My husband and i joined Planet Fitness 4 months ago before i joined mfp. Started 15 minutes, 2 days. a week and now up to 60 minutes 5 days a week on treadmill and ellipiticals. People don't bother others working out but do seem friendly. The employees are always willing to answer questions and keep the gym and…

Great job! You look wonderful.

Thats a great NSV. I'm hoping for the same result!

I get a big box from costco and have one when i crave chocolate. Mine are 90 calorie and taste good. They just aren't very big. The best part is that they are not addictive for me so i only eat them once in a while.

After buying three $10 pedometers because i lost one, put one thru the wash and dropped one, my daughter bought me the Omron for christmas. There is a place on top where i put a ring so i can put a pin on so i pin it to my waistband or to my pocket so i won't lose it. Like that it tells me my calories although i don't add…

I also had only a 5 lb weight loss since i started Jan. 2, 2013 but i started treadmill walking 3 times a week 30 minutes and now up to 50 minutes 5 times a week and I can get back into the jeans i couldn't wear at Thanksgiving. They are tight but not uncomfortable like they were. I can also put my palm on the front of my…

See if there is a Planet Fitness in your area. $10 a month with an annual $39 fee due in May or Sept , I think. No contract, great atmosphere for the novice.

I joined in Nov, 2012 because we couldn't walk outside and my knees were stiffening up without exercise. Have worked my way up to 5 times a week and really like it. Its a very comfortable environment with all shapes and sizes and nobody cares what you look like. The staff are friendly and smile when they answer questions.…

Glad to see you will talk to a nutritionist.:smile:

When my daughter was 19 she started to diet and exercise excessiively and she went from 125 to 86 in less than a year. She realized she needed to eat more and stop exercising but as much as she tried she couldn't do it by herself or with our help. We found a doctor who specialised in treating annorexia thru talk and group…

Wow, what a change in three months. Way to go!

Looking great.

Looking good. How long has it taken you to reach this point?

Hi, I'm 62 and retired and joined this site 3 wks ago. I need to lose 40-50 lbs and am willing to do it slowly (with my meds that's the only way I can do it). Not sure how to friend request cause I'm a little technology challenged but am willing to try.:happy:

Hi, I just started (2nd week) and enjoying it even though I haven't lost much yet. I'm 62 and need to lose 50 pounds but will settle for 25. Dr says not to expect to lose more than 1/2 pound a week because of medications but I'm hoping to double his expectation. Retired 2 yrs ago, moved out of state and have become…
