Searching for my Skinny Self

I was skinny up until I hit my mid 30's. I have been steadily gaining weight and need to stop it. My family has a history of obesity. I do not want to be another statistic. It is definitely harder to lose as you get older. I have about 55 pounds to lose. I'm hoping I can find support and motivation here.:happy:

    I think we all are searching for our Skinny Self !! I have been hiding mine for a long time. I have 6 children the oldest being 22 and the youngest being 10. I have been using this site for a couple of months now and have lost 20 lbs. I also understand about how hard it can be after a certain age, I am 46. When I started I had at least 60 lbs. to lose. But if I can do this I know you can!!
