Not so new newbie

Hey everybody,
I originally joined back in 08 and just rediscvered myfirness pal a couple of weeks ago. I'm embarrassed to say that I gained more weight since joiing back then. Peri-menopause, depression, stress, you name it caused my weight gain. Thankfully, I just got a full check up, including blood ork from the doctor and I am in great health (surprisingly)with no high blood pressure, diabetes nor high cholesterol. One thing I do have is osteo-arthritis in my right knee that has been getting worse. A couple of weeks ago I got a shot in my knee to help ease the pain but I don't want to live my life on shots and pain killers so.. here I am. I'm hoping to get support and support those in need!

Desiree
