Over 50 and finding it IMPOSSIBLE to lose

[MamzelleT]

Hi! I'm new here, and have been trying to lose weight, with IF and doing HIIT, strength and cardio workouts. NOTHING is working since I hit 50 three years ago... including menopause. Nothing works anymore! I desperately need a buddy or buddies to walk this path with! I do know Im not eating properly, and wine is my downfall... am I alone?? Eeeek!

Welcome to the forum.

I would suggest starting a thread in the diary section where you will get the most support.

you are not alone.

Being 50+ and on thyroid meds - I get how difficult it is, but someone once told me that you can't out run your fork
Have you tried keeping track of calories?
