Hi I didn't see a place to introduce my self for the 50+. I am 62 and this group seems very nice. I have arthritis so exercise is an issue. I can do some so I am not completely beat. Happy to have discovered this site!

Hi Daylily. Welcome to the 50+forum. Come and join the chat in the January Golden Girls, second part. You'll fit right in as we have a variety of health issues. I'm your neighbour just across the gulf in Newfoundland.

Hi! I am new here too, and am not sure where to post/meet people. I am 53 and I live in Michigan. I am in my second week of Optifast, so I will be most interested in tips on exercise, motivation, etc. - not food! for the next 10 and 1/2 weeks.

I hope to check in here daily - I'm not even sure how I will know if anyone responds......hopefully I'll catch on.

Hello ladies,
Look around & post wherever you feel comfy!

Hi all I joined a group in '07' and think I lost myself to "my family's busy lifestyle" but now need to take time to get myself back together. I am hopeful that I will be able to lose weight with the support of others in the same boat I am in. Anyways it's great to be back.

Hi Everyone,

Welcome! Jump in wherever you want. Everyone is VERY friendly. I post on Golden Girls and we love new members.

Hi, I am another new member. This is the first time in a long time that I am taking care of "me" instead of children, aging parents and students. Now it is time to feel better. Been on a protein diet and I am feeling so much better. Having the extra energy is soooo great. It will hopefully motivate me to keep going. Glad to find a forum for my age group (69).

Hi Pony,

WELCOME!

Hope to see you on our Golden Girls thread,

Lynn

Hi Daylily,, I am new too!! 50 years young, from South Carolina!!

I am also new so not sure where to post. Am 63..and a compulsive overeater.
If it's not sweets or carbs than it's portion control and if I've got all under control is is late night binging. I am as healthy as I've every been..feel good, good energy and happy life. I just want to get rid of this bulge in my abdomen. Now using First Line Therapy for abdominal obesity. Sometimes I'm into it and other times I'm not. Need a place to vent..esp. at night.

Hi Daylily! Welcome,...glad you have joined us. Come on over the the Golden Girl thread. That's where we all chat and support each other.

Also Poney - Welcome, you join us too!
