New to the group & looking for friends to keep me accountable

Hi! I'm new to this site (and this group). Hoping to find some new friends about my age to help me be accountable.

    I'm new, too, although I tried it out about two years ago, but used a different site. I dropped 63 pounds in 2012-2013, then gained 20 back in 2014. Starting over again! It's harder to lose as we get older!!!!

    Happygrandma52, welcome to a great group! The accountability is so helpful to stay on track.

    Othermama7 - you've done well to have a net loss of 43 pounds over the last couple of years! Welcome aboard.

    Thanks! I've been feeling bummed about the gain, but I should focus on my successes!

    Welcome. Definitely focus on your success. 43 pounds is a big loss! You will be back on track and that 20 you gained will be off in no time and so will be the additional 35! You can do this!
