Hi! My name is Jody and I am 52 yrs old. I am on thyroid, and cholesterol meds and my BP is borderline. I have 6 beautiful daughters, 3 wonderful son-in-laws, and 3 lively, lovely grand-daughters! I am also obesely overweight...???? I have tried WW numerous times (lost and regained)...and a meal replacement program as well as a saliva test to check adrenals....yet here I am! It is so confusing out there!! Both maternal grandmothers and my mother are shaped like me! I don't want, and am not interested in any surgery!! So, I need loads of helpful advise and support. With my family, it feels like one big food festival all the time! Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

    Hi Jody. what a great start, using mfp. It works if you let it. I too am over the 50 yr old mark but not a grandma yet. I have been using mfp for 490 days faithfully. I log every day and have lost 92 lbs with more to go.

    Feel free to add me as a friend. It's always nice to have friends to support each other.
