in Introduce Yourself
New to this so would love some support. I'm 63kg, and want to get down to around 55 so I can get back into my clothes. Seems a small amount, but whenever I've tried to lose just a few, it doesn't really work. I'm early 60s, still working. Have been a very energetic person climbing hillsides and mountain passes, but that has slowed up over the last few years because of painful knees. I think it was worth it!
However, the easing of extreme mountain adventures has expanded the waist and weight.
So, hoping to link with some like-minded buddies - join in please.

    Hi. I'm from NZ. I have another 53 kgs or so to lose. I'm 36 and have osteoarthritis in both my knees and both sides of my lower back. Losing weight so I don't end up crippled at 40 🤣🤣🤣 Feel free to add me if you like 😊

    Hi cowsanddog - are you from a farm with a name like that? Yes I'll add you, thanks. Aren't painful knees annoying? Do your knees throb hot at nighttime? Mine do, it's really irritating. Drs don't offer much help with that.
