Hi there! I am 45, female, and 5' 0". I need to lose 24 lbs to hit my BMI.

It's such a challenge to buy clothes when you're petite and overweight. Pounds also have kept creeping on the last 2 years since hitting 43.

If I do nothing, things will go bad quickly (health wise and looks wise). Looking for others in the same boat.
