Hello, 5 years ago I started a journey here and lost 70 pounds with help of friends here. 5 years later weight is all back and I am miserable. I have become care giver of my mentally handicapped brother and for the most part feel trapped as i can not leave him home alone. I am divorced and to a certain point, being fat means there is a good reason to not have a guy in my life. If any feel so incline send me a friend request.

    You can absolutely do it! If anyone ever says something negative to you about getting in shape while being a bit more mature than a spring chicken: look up Ernestine Sheppard. Trust me. (Or look her up now to see what the possibilities really are).
