So I’m 47 and have quite suddenly found myself in a hormonal meltdown... apparently it’s peri menopause, and suddenly, I walk past an ice cube and gain 10 lbs!
I have never weighed this much in my life... and that includes pregnancy.
I’ve got a long road ahead but I need to drop a lot of weight.. quickly!
Happy New Year to all!

    Small goals will feel more doable and give you encouragement to continue along the way. Use MFP and all aspects of this site; it's been a huge help for me. Best thing to remember, no matter how you choose to walk this path, is get right back to it if you go off a day or 2. Best of luck to you!!!

    Completely understand your struggle! I turned 40 and the universe handed me all the weight that I never gained :(
