I am going to give a try!

:drinker: I have been on so many online programs over the last couple years. I go back to weight watchers regularly but do not seem to be able to succeed. i have tried several I have paid for and today took a look at my self and thought lets give this a try. I am 76 years old and would love to loose my last 30 pounds this year. It is such a simple laid out webpage and it is free. How wonderful. I also have loaded the portion control plate on my computer and will try to use that as a prop. I am down 40 pounds from my high and have been up and down this last year with 10 pounds and I know I would feel so much better if I lost more weight. Like I said my problem is portion control and I don't get that with WW's so I am giving up on them. I also started drinking green tea which I love and I will say I do have more energy. Wics me .
