Welcome! Its nice to meet you!

Hello everyone! I just joined the group and Thanks for having me. I am 56 years old. Have been dieting for what seems like forever. Looking forward to chatting with you

Yes...please! I have been working up the nerve to post and look for help. This may be it. Thanks so much!

Wow! How sad! You are absolutely right. One never knows...

Hi everyone! I am 56, mom of 2. I work full time. Seems like I have been dieting forever, can't think of a time that it has not been an issue. Welcome to MFP! Add me as a friend, if you like. Good luck on your journey!

Increase your intake of water. When a craving hits, go for the water or something like fruit with natural sugars. Play the 15-30 minute game with yourself. When the craving hits, tell yourself you will wait 15..20..30 minutes. If its still there, have a limited size of what u r craving. Go for a walk or do something…

My goals exactly. Count me in!

Hello Everyone! Thanks for adding me to your group! My name is Elaine, I am 56. I also had a hysterectomy a few years back. Still have some hot flashes but nothing like they were. Biggest issue for me is not being able to lose weight. I feel like i have been dieting forever with no end in sight.

I too had a hysterectomy a few years back. I would love to be in on this group. Definitely can use some advise abd support.

Your menu's sound amazing. I generally go the traditional route but think I might change it up after looking at your menu's. If you are sharing recipes...please send me the stuffed turkey and spanakopita also. Thanks so much! i am going back right now to see what else I can 'borrow" from any of you. Thanks again!

Yes, please. I would definitely like to be in! I would be happy to try to help. Let me know

I am shooting for 10 pounds by Christmas. I know that doesn't seem like a lot but I was at a plateau for at least a month. Then I went on a vacation and was really bad following that only to put 8 lbs. back on. I will be ok with 10 but would really love 15 or 20!

Also, what is your food intake like for a day?

Agree...overly sensitive. Sounds innocent enough to me...probably just sensitive about the gain. Let it go....

How about 50's? Have been on a very long weight loss journey, it seems. Would love to lose another 30-40! Feel free to add me!

Hey! Welcome! Eagles...are you from Philadelphia?

Me too! Hello everyone!
