I've been on here this time since the beginning of the year. I have good incentive because I'm going home to the States, in June, for the first time in four years, and there's nothing like a good trip to get me started. Having said that, I'm making lifestyle changes (this time) that will stay with me forever. I, too, would…

I an American living in Wales. I'm actually starting today, because, why wait? I've set up an Excel sheet as an exercise calendar and I'm using My Fitness Pal for my eating. At 62, I can't afford to carry this weight around any longer. Need to lose a good 30 pounds. Also, could use support and new friends!

I'm starting over, so please add me, too!!! I need all the help and support I can get. :tongue:

Hi LozzieWebb, Thanks for the friend request! Where in Wales were you visiting? I'm north of Cardiff, near Usk. So beautiful!!! I have a lot of weight to lose, too, but I can only start again, and hope I don't quit. I'd like to lose 10 pounds by my 60th birthday (end of July). My treadmill and I are going to get really…

Dear MarynEve, Oh...I know how hard it to adjust, and you just got here. You'd think it would be the same, because of the language, right? But...it's so DIFFERENT. I've been here just one year and I'm FINALLY settling in. I went through a period of being homesick about two months ago, and it lasted for about two months. I…

Hi Paula, Thanks for the warm wishes. I definitely friended you. I'm near Usk, but I know where Swansea is. My husband used to live in Crynant, near Neath. So you're Dad's American? Where abouts in America do you visit? Thanks for the tip about friends. See you "out there" on the wall! Katie

Hi PinkOrangeYellow... Thanks for adding me! You're in London. Lovely. I've only been through the airports and then whisked away to Wales. I'm North of Cardiff, near Usk and it's absolutely gorgeous. As for my weight loss, if I'm honest, I have probably a good 4 stone to lose, but right now I can only think about losing 1…

LOL....I'm another old fart! 59 here....but I feel 28. Hoping to shed a good portion of my weight prior to my 60th birthday, July 2012. Feel free to friend me everyone. I'm always looking for friends my own age! :blushing:

If you feel that way, what about a wii or Nintendo? You can get amazing exercise programs for them, including Zumba and Yoga and all sorts. It will make you feel better about yourself until you get some pounds off and feel better in front of others. We have some very large gals at my gym and nobody makes them feel bad…

Count me in! I know I can't do it alone. Luckily my husband is going to the gym with me, but he doesn't have as much to lose as I do. Plus, it's easier for men than it is for women. So, here's to new friends getting healthy together!!!:drinker:
