I started the my fitness pal with my husband 1/1/14. We wanted to lose weight and eat healthier ,he and I quit smoking he quit in 2003 and me in 2011, both of us gained weight I gained over 100 lbs,he gained 50 and he also is diabetic,has a pacemaker,I have COPD and are on inhalers, also had cancer 8 yr. Cancer free, had a stroke in late 1980's left me unable to work.I have had a heart attack 2008 left knee replacement, my health problems are many. We bought a treadmill and I am walking at a leisure pace for 13 mins.twice a day I am counting calories I as am staying with the 1200 calories recommended,my hubby is counting calories he can have more then me since he wants to lose less then I do.He also does situps(10) 4 times a day plus walking 15 mins 2 times a day at a moderate pace. I weighted in at 238 lbs when we started I now weight 225 lbs.Proves it is working.Hubby has not weigh in yet. This is a good program, keep at it don't give up!! Thank you Son for recommending it to us. I should add that I am 66 yrs young and my hubby is 73 yrs young he hunts and fishes with our 3 oldest son's every year.
