in Introduce Yourself
I'm 61 and currently struggling to lose the last 40 pounds. Since February 2012, I have lost 54 pounds. I have a tendency to stress eat. It doesn't help that I love Chicken Express fried gizzards and Blue Bell ice cream.

I need to get it together for 2016 because I want to be at my goal weight by July 22 (birthday).

Any support will be appreciated.

    Hi,

    Congrats on losing 54Ibs that's awesome. I have the same downfall for pizza. Any lifestyle change was always going to fail if it could not incorporate pizza.

    So on Fridays I run like hell, and reduced the pizza intake = happy boy.

    It's not about always giving things up sometimes you can plan and build them in. Good luck with the gizzards (no clue what that is)

    Thank you! Gizzards are part of the chicken and down in the south eaten with hot sauce.

    You look fab! Keep it up! I too wish to lose 2 stone and being 60 I feel is challenging when you wish to lose this amount. That said you give me pure inspiration to do it! Thanks!

    You look amazing! The only think I am think of is shocking your body by changing up your exercise regimen?? Your body gets used to doing the same thing... Awesome job though - congrats!
