I was diagnosed with hypoglycemia (low blood sugar) which mine is not severe. I still eat sweets but in moderation. I scared myself when I started researching how the body processes the sugar. It is crazy what the body has to do to get rid of the bad sugar. Pancreas, insulin, liver. Diabetes runs in my family. I just want…

Getting healthy: eat better, exercise more, fend off future medical issues. That's me! However I'm 46 with a 6 year old, ha ha I'll send you a FR!

I sent you a FR. Congrats!! I lost 50 before but sadly gained 20.

If you are looking for a friend in the same boat. I'm a 46 yr old mom. Sweets, check. Need to eat healthy and exercise, check. 15+5 lbs to lose 😉 Besides the age, it is like I'm looking in a mirror! Please send me a FR if that is what you a looking for. I wasn't sure if this was just a discussion board join or looking for…

When it is only me and grams are offered, I weigh the food at 100% accuracy. When it is family dinner time, I estimate the best that I can.

I'm in! I searched the group and requested to join. The group activities seem fun and not at all complicated. :smiley:

I emailed but haven't heard back. I did find the "Losin' it!!" group with OP as one of the leaders. I requested to join. I'm just hoping it won't be too complicated. We shall see what happens.

I sent you a FR. I need to lose 20 lbs too! I just started interval walking and weights. I try to pick healthy things to eat. My biggest problem is logging food. I spent 2 years weighing/logging food. Then I spent 2-3 years not doing anything. It's hard getting back into the logging routine.

I sent a FR. I'm looking to lose 20lbs, too.

Message sent! I need to lose at least 20 lbs.

Stuffed French Toast (peanut butter, banana, whole grain bread). One of my favorites!

My first time attempting to lose 50 lbs was achieved back in 2015. I carried on with healthy eating and weight training. My kid started PreK in 2017/2018. We were sick A LOT and I gave up on myself. Now 20 lbs heavier, I'm ready to get back to it. My foods are simple and quick since I'm not the best of cooks. Plus I'm…

Hi Tracey! Looks like there might be the 3 of us active on here since the other post are from 2016, I'll be 46 in April. I dropped about 50 pounds in 2015. Sadly, I got lazy and gained 20 of it back. Looking to stay consistent and shed this off again. Let's do this!!

Hi chaquita1972! Thank you for sharing. I had my one and only kid at the age of 40. I'll be 46 this year. My highest documented weight was 179. I'm 5'6" so I'm feeling your story. My main loss all started in 2015. I lost around 50 lbs and hit my goal. Over the years, I got lazy and now I need to lose about 20 lbs. I…
