I am Lynn, and I have just joined myfitnesspal.
I am 60 years old and I sit all day driving transit bus.
I struggle with back pain so it has been limiting my exercise.
The food diary is helping me see how much I consume and the exercise shows me what I need to accomplish

Welcome Lynn, I am an IT guy that sits all day too. Slowly but surely. The back pain will get better with weight loss somewhat....depending. 10 years ago I had herniated 6th cervical in neck, could not move. Ate pills for a couple of years, then started working out slooooowly and carefully. It took me 6 months before I could do a whole workout. 3 years later the numbness went entirely away in my arm and fingers, pain gone, and normal. I gained back 60 pounds last 2 years, but here I go again. Just be careful and do what you can. Anything is a good thing. Keep in motion!1
