I am almost back down to 69kg and it seems to be stabilising. I am doing terribly with my healthy eating but still managing to reduce portion size and doing my exercise.
Good luck @Cjp willing you to do it!

I need to get in on this.
In the past few years, Iâve gained about 25 pounds.
My biggest issue is that I hurt, all the time. My joints (ankles, knees, hips, lower back, shoulders and elbows) are tight and hurt. When I try moving, it seems ot takes weeks to recover, making it difficult to continue any regular activity.
I started stretching a little and it feels like it helps. Maybe starting small is the best way to go, at my age.
If I could lose 20 pounds by summer, Iâd be so happy.

Have you looked into yoga? Hatha yoga is really gentle and helps with mobility

I do Pilates Reformer.
I donât know if you have access, most people donât, to a reformer, but itâs helped me tremendously. Every time I started working out again at a gym or fitness center or even dumbbells at home Iâd hurt myself. You would probably need to take beginner classes. But itâs been great for me. Very low impact and tons of stretching and core work. And not the kind of core work that hurts your back either.

Same! I used to gym all the time, but after turning 40, I feel like I aged ten years over night. Simple weight training started hurting, more than sore muscles, hurt like I was tearing ligaments and stuff.
Iâll comtinue with my daily stretching, then try some yoga like @Cjp recommended.
Also, maybe I should see a doctor. Maybe I have some joint/bone disease like my mom had. Just gotta figure out how to get a doctor⌠baby steps.

I did yoga for a bit too. It was really hard. Iâm not very flexible, but I did get a trainer. A yogi 
she got me to use a lot of props so I wouldnât hurt myself and not get discouraged. It helped a lot. But when I got rid of the yogi I slowly stopped doing it. It did feel good though. After. There are mat Pilates work outs too. Itâs a lot of stretching but a bit easier in my opinion than yoga.
I hope itâs not a bone joint issue. Sucks getting old. Better than the alternative I reckon.
