hi everyone! I'm new to the app. I found it thru a survey site that mainly deals with health. I am of poor health and underweight, but I am trying to change things as I'm only 3 1/2 years from 40. I am eager to tone up and start to gain some weight. I have never really focused on my weight but since I have had major surgeries on my stomach and intestines, I find it really hard to gain weight. Due to lack of nutrition and the inability to absord nutrients, I often find myself tired, dizzy, and unable to do activities most ppl my age can. My husband is 45 pounds overweight and almost 60. So together we decided to begin a health journey to better ourselves and support each other. I look forward to sharing my journey and hope I can somehow help others along the way.
