I am 67. Yes having said that it is unbelievable to me because I still feel like that 21 year old girl trapped in this body. I have always been thin most of my life but after menopause I really gained weight and suffered from empty nest syndrome and blah blah blah blah. So here I am trying my best to say stay sober with my food a day at a time. So far so good for my second day of healthy eating, but I do know that I have a binge eating disorder and I have to be vigilant. Sometimes I get scared that I won't be able to lose the weight and would it really be so bad? In my case yes because I also have celiac and I am pre-diabetic so if I don't lose the weight my doctor said it is likely I will be on medication. This is what I am trying to avoid because my mom died at 78 because of a diabetic stroke.

I hope everyone is having a reasonable time around the holidays. I actually visited a friend today who was bringing tons of forbidden Foods into her home and using the new year as an excuse. This year I am going to say no and not bringing that crap into my home.

Since I am a nutritionist I absolutely know what to eat and how to do it but therein lies the problem: the doing it.
I am hopeful that all of us will be able to make some improvements in our lives this coming year, and I am here for support if anybody needs sone.
