Thanks so much for the heads up. Signed up for course.

Do really well on the food, but I can talk myself out of exercise in a second!!!

I put my veggies in a blender - that way I get all the juice and the fiber! The best of both worlds. Also eat whole veggies, never juice.

I use stevia - it's natural

I started losing hair when I cut my carbs too low. I would think it is different for everyone

Wow - your story is pretty much my story, except that I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes in Nov., 2011. What a wake up call. I lost 40 lbs right away and then plateau'd. Joined MFP a little over 3 months ago and started losing slowly. Two weeks ago I joined a gym and got a personal trainer who keeps me on track and doing…

I am 66 and have lost a total of 55 pounds since 12/11. I have diabetes, hypothyroid and fibromyalgia. If I can do it - you can do it!! One day at a time making better choices and getting off my butt!

Fantastic! Great work. My A1C was 6.1 at last check, but only on oral meds. Hoping to get off them. Still on BP meds. Working with a naturopathic doc to hopefully get off some of my other meds. Keep up the great work.

Petaluma - NorCal rocks!!

I'm 66 and I'm finding it hard to lose weight now, but I have health issues that can make it more difficult to exercise which helps to be fit and lose weight.

I have the Striiv app on my phone - counts steps & stairs and syncs with MFP & it's free. Works fairly well

I use Striiv on my phone - pedometer app that syncs to MFP

Yes, tuna is good. Packed in water is probably better and if you check the can 2 oz is a serving. But, based on your calories, you could eat more.

Very well said. Thanks for the reminders.

I'm 66, but also looking for supportive friends. Also watch my carbs due to diabetes. I am sending you a friend request. I log everyday.

Richard Gere - he has nice shoes - they would look good under my bed!!!

I have trouble meeting my protein goal! Don't know what to do other than to add protein powder to things.

Wow - you look fantastic. What an inspiration.

I have fibro, diabetes, hypothyroid and heart disease. You can add me.

You can add me- I post everyday and everything I eat

I think I would use The Force! Would you rather be right or happy??

Was diagosed with hypothyroidism about 18 years ago - take meds daily; while my numbers all look good it is very difficult to lose weight. I also have type 2 diabetes and a pacemaker due to AFib. (atrial fibrillation). I am 66 yrs old which makes it even harder. I know I can do it but extra support is always welcome. You…

Me, too! I am 66 yrs old which makes it even more difficult. You can add me if you like - I am on every day.

I am 5' 7", 66 yrs old and currently weigh 235#. A year ago I was at 275#, was diagnosed with diabetes and lost the weight. I have been on a plateau for for a few months now, but have started to exercise more regularly. I set my goal weight at 180# even tho the charts all say I should weigh much less than that. I will see…

I love the ocean - It's where my heart is at home, my serenity place

Just one - a butterfly over my left breast. Got it as a 61st birthday present to myself and I love it. Would love another one, but the time is not right.

California is the place to be. I live just north of San Francisco

Since I have been diagnosed with Diabetes I only eat sweet potatoes and I put cinnamon on it. Yummy
