in Introduce Yourself
Hi everyone!!
I just joined a few minutes ago and I'm a grandmother of five and looking forward to shedding the excess weight I've been carrying around for several years now. I joined a local fitness center and plan on working out 3 days a week. I have 100 pounds to lose and being a Christian, I'm planning on doing daily praying along with my exercise and weight loss program. I am a size 24-26 woman's size right now, and I'm looking forward to a "new and improved, "Nana"!!! HA!!

Blessings,
Nancy

    Hi!

    You`re not old! Look at me, I`m 57yrs old. I been going up & down on my weight for the longest time. Till last summer, the YMCA had a competition called Win to Lose 2together. I lost 32lbs & my husband lost 25lbs within 5 months. Now, that it is over, I gained 14lbs. YIKES! This website is GREAT!!! You can do it.

    Welcome Nancy.

    I'm also a Christian and I thank God for each accomplishment I make in my weight loss. I know I couldn't do it on my own but with God all things are possible.

    Good luck to you and keep us informed on your progress.

    God bless you.
