Another newbie. Just coming off a month of NutriSystem and determined to control my calories and
portions myself hereafter. I don't have a lot to lose, but at age the metabolism is stubborn, and you know it's hard to lose (and oh, so easy to gain) at any age. Anyway, this is a terrific website. Thanks
for the opportunity to join you.

    I went to your profile to congratulate Losing_It on 50 pounds. (Yikes, that's so wonderful!!) but
    I have no idea how to leave a comment? I hope you come back and read this. I'm just very impressed
    with that loss, you're doing great.
