Hi! My name is Karen and I am 48 years old. I have been on a constant quest to lose weight. I had a hysterectomy in June and have put on about 7 lbs. since June. I just need a sensible way to get it off. I also have a difficult time exercising as I need to have joint replacement in my big toe. Excuses, excuse.... Hopefully this will help me get on track. It seems like there are lots of great people in the same boat.:happy:

    Hi Karen, and welcome to THE best site on the web!
    Between the easy to use food counter (which by the way is SUCH an eye opener!) and all the wonderfully supportive members, you WILL be able to lose the weight that you want to, AND, it'll "almost" be easy doing it!
    I recommend logging ALL your foods BEFORE you have them, rather than later, as it tends to lead to better food choices. (not to mention you'll know if you've got enough numbers left to have a night time snack, like I ALWAYS try to do!) Some people also like to weigh and measure some things, such as meats, rather than just estimating and possibly being WAY off!
    Also, drink lots of water, that seems to help alot too. :drinker:
