Once more with feeling.

Hi All,

I have been on this weight-loss, get fit thing for years. Mum had a heart attack last year and Dad had a cardiac history too. The Dr's nagging is getting worse and my blood pressure isn't getting any better.

So here I am again.

Please feel free to add my as a friend and any suggestions for a good community to join for a 54 year old woman.

    Hi! Adding you as I need friends too for accountability. I'm 58 and have about 50 lbs I need to lose. I've been on the whole yo-yo dieting thing too. Had success with Keto a few years ago, but I moved and had fallen off that train and gained almost all back. So this time, slow and steady. I hope to find a good group too. I am in the Keto group from a few years ago, but looking for others. Good luck to you.

    Heyyyy y'all! I'm 52, and trying so hard to get over the mental hurdles! I could use some friends my age who are on this journey. :smiley:
