Hi there,
I'm brand new to this site and looking forward to taking off the 40 pounds I gained this past year. The trifecta of weight gain came from foot surgery (no walking for 2 months), quitting smoking, and my thyroid shutting down. What a year! Healthy eating and a slimmer body...here I come!

    You've come to the right place for help. You can friend me, if you'd like. For a few more days, I'm your age and I have about the same amount to lose. Welcome!

    Welcome!
    (I was afraid it was the "pneumonia, chocolate cake and ennui" trifecta I've got going....)

    It at least sounds like it will end sooner... I'm not sure about the fun.

    Ain't it great? I went on birth control gained a bunch, off of it, gained a bunch, developed thyroid issues, yup you guessed it gained MORE! Oh, and somewhere in there I went back to college at nearly 30, ate horribly and had absolutely no time to exercise let alone breathe! But, I graduated, have a new wonderful man, great job, and I'm on the right track....this is a great site! Honestly, never, ever lasted this long at a weight loss scheme and I have no plans of quitting, I love it!

    Best of luck to you! Feel free to friend me if you'd like!
