My name is Mary. I am new to this site and so far I love it. I am a 55 (56 next week, but I'll hold on to 55 as long as I can!) year old mother and grandmother who recently moved to a new city and state after living my whole life within an hour of my birthplace! So big changes for me. With my move came some comfort eating so I have gained about 20 pounds.

I am also a living kidney donor so I cannot do low carb because ketosis is hard on the kidneys... and I absolutely cannot get dehydrated.

I'd love to get some weight loss accountability friends, especially in the DC/Northern VA area. I do a modified medifast program... which is 5 100 calorie meals and then one "lean and green" meal- which I add carbs to because of my one kidney status. I also got a fitbit so I am walking and hopefully will find the time to get to the gym a couple days a week.

Hope to make some connections here and find some accountability friends!
