Hi!

Options
I'm new here and I gained 35 pounds from my cholesterol meds. I'm a vertically challenged 50+ female and find it impossible to lose weight.

I've been doing Weight Watcher's points plus plus program for 3 months and have lost 5 pounds. But that was only because I had the flu and didn't eat for 4 days. :-)

I eat well most of the time but one bad meal can cost me 2 pounds. It's incredibly frustrating to have to be good ALL the time! I've fallen off the walking wagon since the time changed and it's dark when I get home from work. I still walk 20 minutes at lunch time.

New friends and pointers welcome!

Cat

    Hi Cat,

    Welcome. I know exactly what you are talking about. I also am finding it very hard to lose this weight.
    I am only 5' and need to lose about 55 lbs and it just not want to go away.

    We have rearranged our downstairs so I can start using my treadmill again and workout DVDs

    Feel free to add me. We can do this
