Hi, I am 54 and need to lose 80 pounds. I have some health conditions that will make this a little more of a challenge, which I am sure some of you can relate. I live in Florida with my husband and our "kids", a dog, 4 cats, 7 birds, and a rabbit.

    Welcome! I've been here since the end of last January, and having made the decision to go slowly, am very happy with my progress. Summer, with its socializing and travelling, has been a challenge, but I'm still here and have continued to lose a bit. My advice, for what it's worth, is to make some MFP friends (you might find a group of people with similar health issues if you search on the groups tab), weigh and measure your food, and get a bit of exercise. Good luck! (Add me, if you like.)

    Good Luck to you Beb54! You can do it! I have some health issues as well (mainly arthritis) but I am managing to walk and do water aerobics. I find the diet is working well for me. It's a good fit, which I can't say about many of the other diets I have been on. Keep us posted!
