I will be turning 40 this may and would like to get some of the weight off. I have 2 awesome grandbabies that will be 1 years old on saturday. I want to be healthier so I can play with them and be active as they run me all over the house..LOL

Any tips and suggestions will be awesome. A lot of support is needed when losing weight, so I am hoping to meet new friends and build friendships.

thanks,
Claudia

    Welcome! You can do it. The hardest part is getting started. Take it one meal at a time :) and exercise as much as your body can handle.

    Thanks, I appreciate the warm welcome and support. I have a feeling this will be an awesome place to be.

    How do you keep the counter on so it's there after you post? I have to keep pasting and copy...

    "The hardest part is getting started."

    agreed. and it helps to have someone in your life to hold you accountable.
    (referring to the food diary)>>
    i wouldn't have signed back in to log my new meals if i hadn't been bragging about signing up to my other half, who reminded me i had to log my meals again.
