    Renee, do not lose hope. You can do this. My problem with wanting to lose weight has always been centered around quick results, but I've realized that you cannot expect that to happen. My daughter turned me on to 'myfitnesspal' and I have been watching what I eat for about a month and a half. You know what, I'm taking my time, and I am actually feeling better as well as losing weight.

    Cheers!

    Hi Renee
    Am with you about the negative energy involved in thinking about the extra weight we are carrying. I have about 25 pounds to lose but weight is weight no matter the number, it's our mindset that we need to change. I am 45 and live in Australia . I am on here daily and am very motivated. I like friends who have their food diary open as I believe that is one of the major ways that we can help each other and for us to be totally honest.
