    :) Hi, I'm Amy and I'm 51. I live in Jacksonville, FL.

    I've lost weight before, but, I'm older now and it's a real struggle this time around. I have about 150 lbs to lose.

    I have injuries to my spine and that limits what I can do. I just try to focus on what I CAN do, which varies. I'm a happy and positive person. I look forward to days that I can go to the gym and enjoy it.
