help an old dog learn some new tricks

Hi, At my age you would think that I would be the expert on how to lose weight. I certainly have done it enough times. Actually I do know how's, I do know what's and I do know the why's, what I lack is the umph to do it. It is easier to simply eat whatever I want and then to moan about how much I have gained and how awful I look. So here I am on this site wanting to start living a better healthier life. I have tried lots of diets, plans, groups, some with little success and some with a great deal of success but all ending eventually with a bigger me. This time I want to focus on the health effects of weight. My cholesterol is high and I know that blood pressure and diabetes will find me soon. Since this type of program is something new I am hoping it will give me the incentive to stay focused and on track. Maybe accountability on line with support from fellow strugglers will be the answer So here I go. Lets help each other to be a "healthier me"
PS. I found this site back in April and it has taken me this long to get started. I think I am ready now.
Warmly,
Judy
