Hello folks, I am 43yrs old and i am up to my neck with this weight and needing to go on a 100lb losing adventure. This seems like a great place to start! It's a 110 degrees right here in Texas, guess I couldn't find a better time to start :smile:

    This is a great tool. I had already lost 54 pounds when someone told me about this and it makes it much easier. Total down now about 72 pounds. Still have 30 to go

    You started it off with a good site, Congrats!!! One day at a time and find a exercise program you enjoy. Think back to when you were a kid, what did you do naturally? I loved swimming and enjoyed running. I am running now after 18 years of not running, I love it! Best wishes!:flowerforyou:
