Hello all! I am back again, hopefully sticking to it this year. I am Kristen, 40, from CT. I have one son who is 12. I had gastric bypass surgery in 2009, but never did what I should have and gained back and am close to the starting weight. I need support and encouragement. I have a few types of arthritis. And so exercising can be hard for me. But I gotta start somewhere! I did go for a half hr walk today with my son. Anyone wanna be buddies and cheer each other on?
