Here for a purpose!

I'm 56 years old and I'm here to not only lose weight, but to gain health and well being. I want to just start this journey to see where it takes me. I'm finally motivated to do this for myself and my future. I try not to be a slave to numbers but I need to lose about 75 pounds. Would love to meet like minded individuals and see if we can help each other along the way.

Think fabulosity!

I just lost about 75 pounds!

For me the secret was knowledge. Before I got started, I read an incredible number of books and papers.

In the end, if you read Gary Taubes: "Why we get fat" and Gary Taubes: "Good Calories, Bad Calories" ...

you will achieve exactly what you say ... HEALTH. Mere fat loss is just a side effect.

Everything is automatic, if you have information.

Thanks for the good advice...I'm an avid reader and I have a tendency to soak up as much knowledge as possible. I've been reading Judi Hollis "Fat is a Family Affair" and "Fat and Furious" lately to gain some insight.

And, great accomplishment!
