    So sorry she's dealing with that, @fishgutzy.

    She has adapted. SA us just one of several different autoimmune disorders she has been dealing with for some time. A couple of them for more than 2 decades.
    She started swimming too. Despite growing up in a tropical island, she never learned how to swim. At 60 she is learning and loving it.

    I’m in! Trying to return to running by eating Keto, adding strength training, and commiting to a half marathon in May. Not as easy at 52 as it was at 22, 32, or even 42! 😳 Looking for some like-minded fitness accountability friends.

    Hi from West Oz.... back in the saddle and making a serious effort this time, school friends having heart attacks and another friend dropping dead while on vacation has meant a bit of a lifestyle reassessment. Was hanging around 105 kg over Xmas and the New Year, but decided I really need to stop being overweight. so that means getting down to 80kg for my 6ft frame...I don't think I ever was that.... I just passed it by! So now into February and I am no longer obese... merely overweight.

    Yay for just overweight! I joined you today too :) Well done!

    Congrats on a great job! Was on my high school FB and saw 8 from my class are gone. It hits home.

    Picking up groceries, eating some Indian food at hubby's favorite place, driving to see some homes for sale, then church tomorrow and a nice, long nap on the couch. Have a great weekend, Steve!!

    @alteredsteve175 a beer tasting followed by a blood donation made me laugh :)

    It’s a rainy dreary day here in NC. I managed to get out and get a walk in between raindrops. Got some grocery shopping done and some things at home. Still trying to rest and recover from a cold that doesn’t want to go away, and finally broke down and bought some cough medicine today.

    Good reason to be somewhat restrained and make certain I don't have a hangover in the morning. HAHA! >:)o:)

    Good day everyone, I just started a biggest loser competition. This just might be the forum to keep their hands on my back to keep me pushing forward.

    Hi everyone. I’ve been quiet...very unlike me! Lol. On vacation...not tracking but not insane either. Guess I will find out when I get home. Going to try to be more active this week too!

    So glad I've just found this group!!!

    50 last year, and appx 20 pounds over weight. I really need accountability and motivation, as I seem to loose both when I don't see the weight coming off....I know, patience!! Especially at "our ages"...........

    Please, anyone feel free to add me......... but I must say I really enjoy seeing peoples diaries, as it helps me if I'm in a food rut :)
