Hi OFs
I must have overlooked this forum.. well.. Just wanted to say hi. Im 53, on LC for a few years, lost over 115 lb, and feel better then I felt in 20 years..and all my medical tests agree..

I say that the 50s is the new 30s..

Hi ARie,

I'm 47 myself, so close to that 50 mark and hoping that for me I will be in better shape and look better than I have in my 40's. Way to go...you are quite an inspiration! I am down 37 myself and it is amazing....no more blood pressure medicine, fewer aches and pains, no more sciatic pain shooting down the hip...everything is 100 percent better.

Glad to have you around!

I'll be 50 in about 10 days- and AARP has already sent me a letter! Sheesh!

I admit, I'm not too excited about turning 50. My husband didn't seem to mind at all, though. One thing I AM happy about is that I made my weight goal before I turned 50. I now weigh what I weighed in my early 20's. Too bad I wasted almost 25 years being overweight!! Everyone always talks about how hard it is to lose weight when you are older, so I'm glad I managed to accomplish this before it got even harder to do!
