Six years ago, at 57 years old, I was at a great weight--127 to 129. Hiked regularly. Did Leslie Sansone DVDs every day. And I felt terrific. But six years later I have gained at least 30 pounds (I am scared to face the scale after all that chocolate) and the doc says I should lose at least 20. Thing is, I am worried that at 63, it's going to be almost impossible. But obviously I haven't given up because I am on here. I am committed to watching my calorie intake, walking daily and doing a Leslie Sansone segment daily. My hope is that I will lose 20 pounds in 2016. Here we go!!
