@meljoemom I love the skirt from "the other side of the closet." I know that's a wonderful feeling! Congrats!

Don't give up! Those last 10 lb. are the toughest, and that's where you've started, so it's a challenge. I suggest adding strength training, even if it's just push-ups and crunches every other day. A low carbohydrate regimen (keto) got my weight down quickly, and, by mostly sticking with low carbs, I've maintained for the…

The only big purchase…

@CAS_53 You asked the question, so as the voice of experience (I'm a year older than you), I have an answer for you. Yes, you can go out for a meal and eat within your calories. Now that we're grown-ups, we don't have to clean our plates, and we can ask for substitutions (e.g., green veggies instead of potatoes or pasta).…

@whitej1234 What?!?!?!? Give up?!?!? That's NOT in our vocabulary here! You're just frustrated, right? You may have to alter your weight loss plan, but you can't just give up! We're with you! It would be too sad to let yourself down! You can do this!

@wcollett60 I hope you do well with the C25K! I think it's a great help to get started, and the races are fun! Now that I'm older, I've figured out I have to strengthen my knees before I can run without hurting myself. I'm starting again with a little jogging during my walks. We'll both get there! Enjoy the journey!

@emmacken Congratulations on your engagement! That's wonderful!
