In my 40s and looking for friends

Hi. I've been a member for years, but only recently started browsing community. Looking for friends, possibly (not necessary) around Staten Island.
I'm 44 and obsessed with eating healthy and walks.
I have 3 kids (youngest 17) and due to severe pain, I was prescribed pain meds for years.
I finally decided I didn't want to be a shell of myself and quit meds cold turkey. NASTY withdrawals but I got through it. Now I finally feel like I just woke up from a long coma and want to LIVE life.
