Ugggh!! I just turned 40 and seem to be picking up weight with every meal. If I look at something to long I gain a pound..lol!!!
I personally did well with diet and exercise 7 years ago and lost 65 pounds...it was amazing!! Right now though I can't kick start my diet or exercise motivation.
Looking for some like minded personal accountability team mates to go through the next 6 weeks of this personal challenge!!?
Good luck to you all!! It really is a lifestyle change that doesn't happen overnight

You can do it. You have already done it once before. You first have to convince your mind and the rest will follow... it is true!1
