Curious to know, Does your age have anything to do with the pace of your weight loss?

Usually the younger people have the advantage when it comes to weight loss. Older people and people who have made repeated atempts to lose weight will typically lose slower.

Now let's lose together while we're all spring chickens!

Well your metabolism does slow with age. I would think that it could be a small factor. But I would not dwell on it. Dr Atkins states in his book that he didn't want to hear the age excuse unless you were over 100.
