I played Mandolin on stage over 20 yrs. Mostly Rhythm but can pick a few, don't do much country though. Can sing melody and 2nd harmony, enjoy it, gonna sing this weekend! Here in North Texas

Yes, that is part of the reason I had to change my diet and exercise routine. My cholesterol way way up! I'm doing better now and so far have lost over 15 lbs. This website and pals are really helping me! Are you on meds too?

What a cool group! I was in my family band for many years. My parents were professional musicians and I sang and played in their band for over 20 yrs. Since my father passed away I have played with several bands. I mainly play mandolin but don't play much country. I am singing Contemporary Christian lately, in fact going…

Hello, I'm in my late 40's and got stuck on 15 lbs! I just now lost another lb after several weeks UGH! I could use some motivational buddies too, feel free to add me! Thanks, Jelio13 Jennifer

"She turned him in for embezzlement some six months earlier" Whoa buddy I'm going to be a lover and a detective! (From a true crime book "Bitter Almonds")

Thank you Ms. Doreen! :happy:

Hello, I just joined 1 month ago and am down 11 lbs. You CAN do it! Just be consistent with your exercising and adding all you eat on your page. I am mainly walking and riding my Stationary bike. Start slow and don't hurt yourself! Good luck I'm sure you can do it.

Yes Absolutely! Walking has helped me, I am 11 lbs down in one month. I have bad knees so I can't run, so I enjoy a good brisk walk. You don't have to "break a sweat" to get your heart pumping. It works for me!

Chicken Fried Steak smothered in gravy! I recently went to a family get together, that's what everyone ordered so I ordered a plain baked potato and added my special butter, sour cream and cheese it was delish!

I usually get hungry right before I go to bed and don't like to go to bed hungry. I've been eating the Caramel Rice Cakes, they are delish! I also have some beef jerkey that is low in fat and not too many calories. Drink alot of water too, that might help. Keep up the good work! Jelio13 Jennifer

Hello, I also love cheese. Campbell's has a cheese soup and sometimes you can find the low fat. Also Kraft has shredded cheese that says 2% and it is lower in fat and calories, it is delicious and melts and tastes like regular cheese! Also Velveeta has low fat cheese that you can try. Good luck!

Hey Katie, I'm also 5'4" and struggle for a while with my weight. When I lost my job as Church Secretary because of a Church Split I was sad and wasn't as active and gained 25 lbs. in the last year and a half! That concerned me also my doctor said my Cholesterol was way too high. So decided I really needed to make some…

Been there, done that! Don't beat yourself up about it. Just know tomorrow is another day and another chance. You can start fresh and more determined!
