Yet Another over 40er trying

fortworthbret1

Not that being over 40 is why I got so heavy, I've been overweight forever (ok, maybe not in high school playing football). But it needs to go away ASAP.

My goal is to be around 175 again, and it is going to take a lot of work.

On the way, I get to no longer be obses, then pass under 200, then no lonnger be overweight.

A lot of work ahead.

If anyone wants to push me, it would be most appreciated.

How about someone who just leans a bit, rather than actually being pushy?

Welcome from a fellow fortysomething. Log everything you eat accurately & honestly. Find reliable database entries. (There's a lot of incorrect data in there.) Weigh your food. Log your exercise, and eat back your exercise calories for two weeks. If you're not losing, try eating back half your exercise calories.

I am not quite 40 but close enough....and feeling it.... I am really struggling to see my efforts on the scale this time....I now see why they say its so much tougher to lose weight around this age :-( I am not letting it stop me, I am feeling great so im sticking with it!! Just go with the feeling of accomplishment it gives you and you'll do great :-)
