Maka, You have already done the hardest part, desiding to do it. Now the fun part, getting ot and having fur. I like to walk. I can be nosy and look at my neighbors yards, also get to know the dogs and cats around. I carry pet treats I make and hand them out like candy to kids only I think the dogs like them more, cats too they see me comming now and wait for me. It's fun. Music andLaughter Always Dru

MAKAO7 just give yourself achievable goals, like 2 30 min walks a day or even 3 20mins whatever. Join a local council run gym if you can I go and most of the people are over 50 and we have a great laugh. I'm not a gym person either. If you mess up just keep on going. WE WILL GET THERE!! Lots of us out there helping each other.Granma rules o.k.

I think having an event to set a goal for is so helpful. I don't have any events coming up and it makes it alot harder for me to stay motivated. Of course staying motivated has always been a problem for me. Disneyland with the grandkids, either you are really energetic or really crazy. LOL

You've come to the right place to lose. Just post and get invoved. Keep track of your food and get some exercise. It sounds easy and it really is. You've got a great goal and I know you can make it.

Hi Just think you have a goal. I don't know how much you want to loose, but in 6 months you could be down 25#(about 1# a week) to 50# (2# a week) that can be a lot. It's all in how hard you work. We here at SP will give you support and help you as much as we can. Good luck and keep on working. Use all the tools that SP has to offer and IT WILL HAPPEN.

Getting fit over 50 seems like it is going to be a tough thing to accomplish.

I have to get fit and in a hurry. I have made a commitment to take my 4 grand kids to Disney World this June.

Oh Lord, what have I gone and done? hehehe

I plan on making use of this great site, and all the features as tools to get me on the road to success. I could use all the help and support that you all can muster!

Great to be here!
