Let's do it together! I'm returning again too. To keep trying is braver than success the first time, right? I have about 40 lbs to lose. I've struggled all my life with excess weight.

Yes. Yes and Yes! Chronic pain, and home-schooled my 3 kids 10 years ago. they are all grown. It's so good to know there's someone out there doing similar things. Good luck! (though I know luck has nothing to do with it) Carry on! :)

Hi Brandi, I'm a stay at home grandmother raising my 2 yr. old grandson. I've almost always been about 20-30lbs overweight.
