I guess it is really the hardest thing to do , just getting started. Iam a 50 year old female , mother , grandmother, wife. Like a lot of us , i was skinny as a kid , slender all my life , until i quit smoking. Thats when the weight came at age 30 and it hasnt left yet. A girl that i met at my job , she is german like me , has had sucsess and already lost quite a bit , so i thought that i might give it a shot and see if i can finally do it too. Iam right now tipping the scale at 226 and i hope that i can get down to about 150 to 170 .My name is Christel and i hope that i not only lose weight but also, and most importantly , improve my health. Thank you
