Introducing Myself

suepeters_50

Hi, I'm new to this site and would like to introduce myself. I'm Sue and I'm 60 years old. Didn't think I needed to lose weight at this age but my health is suffering. I was recently in Rome, Italy and let me tell you, all that walking with all this weight was hard. I'm joining my daughter in this and hopefully we'll both meet our goals. Anyone else out there from the Baby Boomers group?

Hi Sue, and welcome to THE best site on the web! :flowerforyou:
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, it REALLY DOES help! :drinker:
