Over 40 y/o Email Loop Wanted

Hiya,

I posted this on the Fitness board and did not get any replies. I want to create an email loop, for folks who is over 40 years old and have 50- 100 Lbs to loose and want to share our struggles and fitness each daily/evening.

I am using a pedometer on tracking steps and made a mini fitness goal on aiming 50 miles by June 21 st...when Summer starts...So far done 4 miles/50.

Also.. started back on tracking calories on my notebook binder and keeping my calories at 2400 or less.

I have a longtime email net buddy and I would like to have a email loop who wants a moral support, net friendships...encouragements and the ups and downs on getting in shape and fighting the fat war in our age groups of 40s and 50s..

If any folks want in and sharing our efforts private and not in public..I had tried on this site and seem not helping me...would like to do an email loop instead of anyone loves to email..My email is LiliAnnB@aol.com

Looking forward on hearing and getting in shape!!!

Great idea LillianB. I'm involved in so many other weightloss strategies that I was starting to feel a bit overwhelmed. Had to let something go. I do however think this is a very good idea and wish you well. Thanks for the invite.

I don't understand why there is no group here for those of us over 40 fighting the battle. I'm starting at 188 lbs and determined to lose 45-48 lbs.

I was always able to lose weight if I wanted to but now that I'm over 40 its not working out so easily for me

You can start a group. Places like sparkpeople or fitnesspal have more options for weightloss groups.
