I am 52 and if hot flashes would count as exercise I would be in great shape. I don't take hormone replacements or drugs, but I found a natural cream that seems to work miracles with me. My husband calls it my happy cream :-). I am not sure if I am allowed to put a link in here, but I guess I am going to find out.…

I think we -you and me- will lose heavily at first, because we are so overweight, after a while it will slow down. I am thrilled with my progress so far, but I know that there will be weeks when nothing will change. It's a forever change...not just a quick fix. It took me 5 years to gain it, so it might take me 5 years to…

I have only 96 lbs to go. I started 13 days ago and 4 lbs were gone last Friday. I am determined to better my life. I want to lose to gain and I will not stop before I reach my goal.

Welcome young one :-) I started here 10 days ago and so far I am 4 lbs down. I am 52 years young and fat on a quest to find the thinner version of me - I have seen her and remember her.

"Choose your hard," I love that. Thank you

The word diet comes from the Greek word "dieta," meaning "a way of life." We are changing our lifestyle. Language is a powerful tool. With just one word we can plant the seed of failure. Well, I am not here to try, I am here to do it. It might be a curvy road and there will be rainy days, but I am going to do it. No…

I have only 96 more pounds to go. NO longer in the 3 digits. I would like to join your journey. But we are not "trying," we are doing it. :-)

I did it to myself as well as you can see. I am going to change that and would happily remind you when I get my whip out :-)

I am going to lose 100 lbs here. Just started and I think the more the merrier. One friend for each pound we are going to lose. :-)

You are such an inspiration. Thank you for posting this.

Hello Edward, I am more than happy to join you at your journey. I am 52 years old young and just started myself.

Welcome. I just signed up here myself. I will lose 100 lbs here and will stick around for a long time. I will happily accompany you on your journey, but I have to warn you. I am going to crack the whip, because I am serious.

I know how you feel. I had a breakdown today and signed up here today. I have 100 lbs to lose and I will. Please feel free to add me.

I started my new life today at 1 pm and posted here as well (The clothes of my past). I would love to join you on your journey. I have exactly 100 lbs to lose.

All of you sound so motivated and so enthusiastic. I just informed my husband about the changes that are going to happen in our life and most of all in our kitchen and he looked happy. He has a few pounds to lose as well and we both want to be healthier.

"Sister," I like that :-) I haven't really set a goal on how much I want to lose in a week, I just want to lose the weight slowly and steady. I love food and I love to eat, now I just have to cook healthy meals and smaller portions. I need to get moving again. Eating right, that's something I have to relearn. I love to…
