I really need support to lose 20 lbs! I think the most I've ever lost while trying was 5 lbs. And that was very hard for me! I don't know how any of you do it. I commend all of you that have lost over 5 lbs. Losing weight gets more challenging the older I get.

My weakness...SWEETS! Just cheated with canned light whipped cream. If I could just resist the urge to eat them I'm sure I would lose some weight. Everyday I have had Nutella 3 - 4 spoonfuls of it. How do u not think of sweets. It's automatic for me to crave it.

    Replace w natural sweets like pineapple or clementine or raisins. I got overweight by dipping a spoon in that Nutella jar during Avery stressful year in my life!! As I keep saying one day at a time. I've lost weight 3 times before in my life but never had this much to lose. This time it's gotta be for keeps; I'm not getting any younger- I'm 44.
