    I'm right behind you at 68 lbs... I just got the book called The Pleasure Trap that has been helping me. I'm basically eating a plant based diet...

    I am 46 and find the weight isn't shifting but I am getting fitter and slimmer all the time - I am (trying to be) more focused on healthiness rather than a number on the scales I have been on MFP for a while and like to get and give support and motivation.

    I would love to hear what the trainer has to say. I need some kind of motivation to exercise. I hate to exercise and need to hear something that will help me want to exercise. I do fine with counting calories. I have lost 50lbs since the first of the year and still have at least 15 - 20 to go. I have a feeling I will want to go a little more once I get there.
    Feel free to add me if you would like.
