  • Good luck! I'm 44 and going through some of that mid-life business too. I started using MFP last summer, and have found it really helpful.

  • Jan 2 2015: 131.5 OK, I think this group might officially be dead...? I'm going to start tracking this just on my own computer, since the team spirit seems to have drained away. Happy New Year to everyone, hope 2015 brings you much success :smiley:

  • I'm 5'1" and 132 lbs, and my size 10 missus are starting to feel too loose. I think I might actually be closer to an 8 now? I'm mainly just doing cardio and haven't really gotten into strength or resistance yet, so I'm still pretty blobby with a pudgy tummy and all that.

  • Any sort of burger or uncut sandwich must be turned as I eat it, so that I'm eating around the whole thing and working may way towards the center. And if a sandwich is cut in half, I have to eat the outer, crust portions first.

  • I'm 5'1", 44 years old. I was at my heaviest this spring at 160 lbs. I started exercising more and eating better in June and am currently at 134. My initial goal was 105, but I might stop at 110-115 if I feel good and am happy with my appearance. We'll see. Ideally, I'd like to get down to a size 6, which I think was when…
