Thank you for posting this! I have been looking for information, to no avail, about the effect of sleep deprivation comparing people who consumed the *same amount of calories*. I understand about leptin and ghrelin and the hunger response. Sure, one is more likely to overeat if sleep deprived but...what if one does *not*…

I'm 58 and in poor condition. I started going to Curves last month. There are women of all ages, shapes and sizes there. You can work out as hard as you want to. It's not intimidating at all. I never thought I'd like it, but I do.

I have the same issue and have been diagnosed with dysautonomia, in fact. One doctor who treats dysautonomia said that if you can taste your food you haven't added enough salt! I just add enough to make my food taste good and try to drink enough fluids. And be careful not to get up too quickly, as others have said. I…

Mashed avocado packs a lot of calories, nutrition and fibre.

Hi Tommi, I'm also on here daily and committed to do this long term. I need friends who are in maintenance because that is where I always failed in the past. Good for you for losing 70 pounds! I will send you a friend request.

That's what I was going to say!

I find it helps to brush my teeth after I'm finished eating for the day. And I second the suggestion to find something to do with your hands and work towards new goals.

I am 58 years old and have been struggling with my weight since I was 15. I've been slim a few times but could never maintain my weight loss for long. Now I have over 30 pounds to lose again and I finally realize that maintenance is the key to stopping this cycle. I find it harder than losing the weight and am already…

I have fibro, too. When my symptoms started I was fit and slim and otherwise pretty healthy. I am a lot better now than I was about 10 years ago. I sent you a friend request. :happy:

Hi and welcome! I am 58, Mom of 2 and Granny of 8. I am in my second week of tracking calories in MFP. There are a lot of people over 50 on this site. Some over 80 years old, even! :happy:

You can pay by the month, although it's $10 more per month. I was going to do that but the owner of my local Curves lets you sign for a year and if you quit before that you just pay the extra $10 per month retroactively for the months you came. No doctor's note needed. I joined just in time to get in on a special offer.…

I joined Curves 2 weeks ago, inspired by my Mom and one of her friends. I am 58 years old and out of shape. So far I love it. Most of the women there are my age and older and many are not slim. But most are stronger and more energetic than I am. I am sweaty when I finish my circuit. When the machines get easier you get a…
