needing friends here

I can't seem to use the app to access the forums. But I am here now via the browser so I hope it works.

I'm female, 40s and I am struggling to lose weight. ... if I don't i will be in a wheelchair in short order. I have a rare disorder that affects the collagen everywhere. It makes exercise very difficult and it has resulted in multiple surgeries which took me from almost at goal weight back up 50+ lbs. :(

But if I am anything it's determined. .. so I am working on it. I'm down 20-something lbs now. I have to focus on food and just walk as much as I can. I get up to 8-9k steps on good days and 500 on bad days.

I really need to get to know others who can share support back and forth. I'm also hoping to find ways to stretch my food money as that really impacts the quality of my intake.

I'm an artist living un Atlantic Canada. I havea tiny disabled beagle and a parot named Ollie. I can kayak so i hope to do so soon... again the trouble is not having company

I hope there are people who would like to help cheer each other on.
