My Name is Debbie, I live in Wisconsin and have been trying to loose twenty pounds for 7 years. To be honest now it's 30 pounds. I have tried low carb on and off and most recently Weigh Watchers. I gained a pound over the 3 months I was on that.
I am 49 years old and fortunately I really like to exercise. I usually am at the gym for at least 90 min.
Any tips would be welcome.
Have a great day every body.

    Hi Debbie. Best of luck to you! I've been on the site for just over a month and have lost 8 lbs so far. I have also tried the low carb and other means of losing weight, but nothing worked for very long. This site keeps me motivated because I am forced to be totally honest with my daily entries. My goal is to lose 20 lbs overall and I'm almost half-way there! It's very rewarding watching the scale go down and old clothes fit again...!!

    Welcome! This is a great site and very user friendly. There's a thread for women over 50 if you're interested - look in the Motivation board.
    Good luck!!
