:smile: Hi, my name is JoAnn but I like to be called Gizzy/Gizmo/Jo so pick one and use it..lol..I am 53 and have been struggling now with a weight problem all my life but it really got worese for me when my boy's join the Army and moved away taking my grandkids and dauther in-law with them...I say daughter in-law cause there was only one that I loved with all my heart..The other could have stay there forever and it wouldn't have matterd but send the kids back to me..lol.. I am married of 34 years have 2 son's, 6 grandkids, 2 dogs and 2 cats. I am a computer geek, I build them as a hobby. I am not on WW and have been since the begaining of May and have lost a total of 65 pounds but seem to be in a rout right now and working hard to get out of it. I hope to meet a lot of nice people here. I love People and love to chat. My goal is to get down to a healty weight and to be able to do things with out any problems.

    Welcome Grizzy

    the site is awesome. I am 46 and have 2 boys...mine are still teenagers. It has to be hard to have your grand kids away from you. I love my boys and hate it when they go and see their father...for even a week. Good luck with your journey. I u want u can add me as a friend :flowerforyou:
