Maintaining in Central Oregon

Hello all!
I found this site when I was almost to my goal weight, however it will be great to help me maintain. I decided to get things under control after my blood pressure started sky-rocketing and a family member had to have open heart surgery. I'm 5', 5" and started my new life style at 196Lbs. After learning about different nutritional recomendations, I started to limit myself to reasonable calories, fat and carbs and added walking to my daily schedule. I learned that to be in the normal range of my BMI, I should weigh 149Lbs or less..what a shocker!

I welcome all friends, support and advice - Todd
