Hi Everybody!
I'm Deb..
I am 59 and have diabetes and heart disease.. I have to do this..
I was not always over weight.. I remained Fit and Thin until I was 40.. Then my Dad passed away and depression set in followed by a habit of emotional eating, which worsened as other issues began happening in my life.. so for the past 20 years I have been slowly gaining. I finally began to realize after 5 heart stent placements and diagnosis of diabetes that I had to change..
2 years ago I stopped smoking .. A 40 year bad habit.. Did it cold turkey with no problem.. Made my mind up to do the right thing!
If Ican do that ...then I can do this..
Sorry This is so long.... Sounds like an autobiography!

Deb,
You're doing great things for yourself. I have started this lifestyle in hopes of avoiding the very health issues you struggle with. I'm 53 and have a strong family history of cardiac disease. Thanks for posting.
