The "in our 50s group" ****GROUP OPEN****

Anybody out there in their 50s??
We seem to have a little harder time dropping our weight. Slower metabolism and less active I think. I'm looking for the 50s group to lose and share with. I KNOW you're out there!

Happy 2009! We can make this the best year yet!

Ok I figured this thing out but like the rest of you it is going to be a learning process.  I am finding things slowly. 

JCR - yup there are just to many changes all at once.

 

Hi Change - I'm over to the Plus side and figured out how to post.  This is definitely a learning process!!!!!  Hopefully it won't be so hard when everything is set up!!!  Hope you're doing well.

JCR, BC, & Serenity Girl - Hope you're doing well.

Does anyone know if there is an easy way to log calories using your tagged items without bouncing back and forth a zillion times? Making me dizzy.

Wheeeee! Congrats Munsey on getting your motorcycle license! That's so cool! :)

Whoa.... 3 posts on the 50s forum in one night. Now that's a record for us lately. (:

Hi Simply and Serenity! Nice to see you!!!

Muns, I have the same dang problem with the tagged items. I don't think there's a way around it but I wish there was. It's so cumbersome!!!!!

Seems to me they can do ALL this stuff on here...they could at LEAST make it easier to log using your tagged items. Us creatures of habit are really finding this tedious. HELLO  ANYONE HEAR ME! GOTTA LITTLE PROBLEM HERE!!!!

My life is a little horrendous here now. Stomach hurts and heart aches. Putting one foot in front of the other for now.

I can't post anything

@,@   I SEE YOU CHANGLING !        &nb sp;

Yeah it finally started to let me post.  They said they were fixing problems.

Hope all is well.  We are going on another motorcycle trip, leaving Saturday home on Tuesday.  This time it is going to be cold but we have heated gear.

 

I am sooo jealous. Let me know what fun you had, when you return. Safe trip girlfriend.

The trip was a lot of fun.  There was only one bad road (bumpy) for the whole four days.  And the weather was perfect.  We did some sight seeing, lunches, dinner and socializing after dinner.  It was a lot of fun.

Sounds like great fun too me. I would like some day to have a  small motorhome and be able to pull a couple of motorcycles around the US. I can dream right?

We have a Road Trek convertion van and we take the bike with us in a pace trailer when the weather is really bad or if we have to camp.  There is nothing like camping with a warm bed, furnace, microwave, TV, DVD and of coarse a toilet.  It really is roughing it...lol. Two years ago we trailered down to Arizona for 6 weeks in the winter.

Wow I'm totally green with envy. Hope you took  a lot of pictures.

Don't know if it's worth reviving this thread, but thought I'd give it a bump just in case. Yoo-hoo......anyone here?   

Yes - I'm here.  Still here, I should say...  still working on losing those last obnoxious 5 or so pounds.  But also trying to convince myself that I really do have time to exercise and then make myself do it    Sound familiar to anyone else???

 

It's more than familiar, it's my theme song! It's time for me to get a new theme. Maybe I'd better borrow the chant we used at home when the kids were little:

 YOU CAN DO IT, YES YOU CAN!

YOU CAN DO IT, SURE YOU CAN!

I like:   JUST KEEP SWIMMING, SWIMMING, SWIMMING, JUST KEEP SWIMMING, SWIMMING

I figure when I give up I'm sunk.

Good point, Change!  I don't want to be 'sunk'!  The alternative to continuing to work on good habits is NOT a pretty sight.  I, for one, don't want to go there, and I doubt anyone else on CC wants to go there either. 

On a good note, I had a good exercise day yesterday.  I am planning to go walk with a friend today.  (and she walks pretty fast)  One little success!

Where is everyone?
