in Motivation and Support
I am 55 years old and am at least 50 pounds over weight. I have tried diets, exercise, and nothing worked so I gave up. Now I'm trying again. I purchased a jawbone up, reactivated my fitness pal, and bought a treadmill. Here we go! I enjoy all the motivating stories. They really help! :)

    Nice link. Thanks for sharing. I'd like more friends who are logging in and want to support and encourage each other to do the simple stuff...log food and start moving! I want to have better health, energy and look better in my clothes! I have a lot of weight to lose but focusing on that just depresses me! Better for me to set small goals that will support my dreams of how I want to just feel better. Anyone interested please add me as friend
