    Hello, I'm in my late 40's and have been gone from this community for quite a long time. But I had a health scare and really need to step it up. I need to lose close to 100 lbs for me to be healthy. I know this will be a long journey and I will have ups and downs, but i'm ready! I will need all the encouragement and inspiration I can get. Thanks so much! please feel free to add me :smile:

    Hi everyone 👋 I'm 48 & hit a wall or plateau or whatever y'all want to call it. I started seriously dropping pounds February 2018. I was on the phone with a friend near tears about how fat I let myself get emphatically exclaiming that I had no idea how this happened, I'm trying real hard & nothing is happening. What are you eating, she says as I bite into some kettle chips. I tell her & just hearing me say this, it all comes pouring out. The very next morning I started a heinous 500 calorie diet & 10,000 step goal. This worked & I dropped 45 pounds. I just downloaded this app because I'm not getting anywhere, & I need something to remind me that A chip or 2 fine, A bite of cake is fine...3 donuts is not a good idea (I really need someone to come by & knock that outta my hand before I get it to my mouth!) But I want to help motivate & receive motivation.

    I’m almost 42. Losing weight is so much harder. I never had to worry about my weight much when I was younger. Im about 25 lbs overweight. I have to find the motivation to do this.
    Typically I’ll get all gung ho and start out great, lose a lb or two and start sliding right back. Don’t know what’s wrong with me other than I love carbs. Lol

    Happy Wednesday ladies. I was starting to lose weight and was doing good. Then I fell off the wagon and gained back half of what I lost. Now granted I only gained 5 lbs back but that still drives me crazy. I also have to lower my Cholesterol so I need to get back on track
