Hi,
I wanted to introduce myself. My name is Pat, I live in Fayetteville, Ar. and I just recently ran across this web site. I am 63 yrs. old so I'm no young chick and have been on one diet or another all my life. I have been overweight since I was 11 yrs. old and was going to diet doctors from that age on. I did lose 180 lbs. in the late "80's" but didn't really learn anything from it and put it right back on and some. My 30 yr. old son died very unexpectedly last year and I lost 12 lbs. immediately, and since then have been very slowing losing until I have now lost 73 lbs. with a little over 100 more to go. So, I have a long road ahead of me. My husband and I are still very much in the grieving stage ( our son had been living with us for the past 2 yrs.) and sometimes I want to overeat then there are times I have to force myself to eat at all. But, I know I can do it with pray, support and perseverance as all of us can.
