@ Snoozie --- wasn't even going to log on today ... and read your post -- just the words I needed!

Since I have been on diets since I was ten years old, I have amassed a great deal of nutritional information, but the reason I am not at the best weight is not due to lack of knowledge. My most successful weight loss (40 lbs at age 45) was with WW. I think it was called 1-2-3 Success -- a points-based system, but much…

Thanks for posting, Jeanmk56 -- just wanted to say that it could have been me writing this! I'm slightly (less than 2 years) older.

Also, debneeds2beskinny mentioned an existing group for 60 plus women, so I guess there couldbe a lot of overlap -- I'm not sure what the commitments are for joining a group, but I just requested membership in that one, being newly 60. So far, maybe because this post is still new, we're getting some good action right here…

Good idea to make it a group -- maybe that would make it easier to maintain continuity with each other. I started this thread pretty much as a look-see, because I hadn't seen a lot of success stories that I could identify with now.

@ kjurassic -- I don't think anyone has said it couldn't be done --- so obvious now in reading your post! It is just so inspiring to read about all the successes in this age group. I am reading all the posts avidly -- all have provided gems. I am glad to see suggestions also for people who may be more limited by health…

renfen --of course it counts, and you are very welcome here -- and I'm glad you would like to share your experiences. Nonetheless, I must point out that peri-menopausal is not the same as postmenopausal for most women I know. In fact, for some, the transition period can be not only debilitating physically (for example, if…

First thing this morning, i logged on to read these posts, and it sets a good tone for the day. Yesterday, I even managed to avoid an unnecessary snack because I thought of you. Asking for success stories in this age group because we have challenges in common is only one aspect to consider. Observing "gee, it's so hard at…

I have never posted in the message pages before, and I thrilled that so many women (who I can identify with) have responded. To reply to everyone individually, it would take up too much space and more time than I have. Ladies, your reading about your success -- and where you've had trouble --inspires me to keep on going.…

Wow! Seems like I'm in great company! Hi, luluinca and thanks for your reply – especially good to know you have improved your metabolism! Also thanks for describing your workouts. I am considering joining a gym, but for now $ is a factor. Still, I have yet to activate a trial membership, which could open new doors.…

Congratulations on your successful running... there'll be no stopping you now!

I'm going to be 60 in September, and, like you, my first doctor-diet was at ten years old. I am 40-50 lbs overweight now. At one time I lost 40 lbs quite easily with WW, but I was only 45 years old and much more active. I'd rejoined and was just getting off the ground again with some success and they changed the program.…

Awesome! and inspiring.
