Just turned 58, and I need to get my health in order. Was diagnosed as pre-diabetic, and have been gaining weight for too many years. Started this year, using Wii Fit Plus (gamifying it really helps me) and South Beach Diet (very low carb, no sugar, no alcohol). Have lost 13 pounds so far. Wishing you all well. Would love a friend or two to help keep up the motivation.
