Hello I am Isobel and I stopped by briefly during the summer. Now I'm ready to really buckle down and get back to business. I am 60 years old and for the first time in our married lives, hubby and I are empty-nesters. Between my step children, foster children and our two boys born when I was 30 and 40, we have had a child…

Hello, I have just found this thread and would like to jump aboard! I turned 60 last month. I have been with MFP since January 2011 and had lost 34 lbs over the year, slow and steady as she goes! lol However in January of this year my husband was in hospital for 2 weeks with a lifethreatening case of pneumonia and my…

Feeling good to be back at it!! Went out for supper 2x this week but planned ahead and did fine. I have peeked at my weight already but not again till Sunday a.m. so I'll just have to see what the scale has to say. Going away on 24 hr retreat tomorrow night where all the food is provided, and likely not very low call...so…

I've noticed there are a few people on MFP who have MS, I take notice as it's in my family. I think from their posts they found the support helpful

The change that I have already experienced this week is that I WANT to exercise! It is so much more fun when my attitude is right!

Welcome!! I am not new but have been a backslider for the past 3-4 after my hubby was sick. He has been better for quite some time but I still couldn't get back on track. This challenge is just the jump start that I need too! Let's do this!

You look fabulous!!

Hello! My name is Isobel and I live in Kingston, Ontario Canada. I initially started MFP in Jan 2011 and lost 34 lbs, and was really looking forward to continuing my weight loss in 2012. After the holidays I was having a hard time staying motivated, and then my hubby got very sick with bacterial pneumonia and was in…

In the last couple months our 19 year old son, who is going into broadcasting at college, has been to Deep Purple and Van Halen. Kool & the Gang open for Van Halen and he said they were also fantastic. Wierd that my youngest loves the *ahem* older music that I grew up with. His girfriend has seen Usher and Prince in the…

Yay I finally found a challenge!! I will weigh myself tomorrow and officially introduce myself then. I have been on MFP since Jan 21011 and had lost 34 lbs when my hubby got sick and ended up in hospital for 2 weeks a few weeks ago. It's all good now but I got totally out of synch while he was in hospital and just stopped…

Wow, that is FANTASTIC! Congrats to you!! I had a peek at your profile and you have done amazing, you have every right to be very proud of your self! I just want to mention one thing, drinking does not define who you are, it is something a person does, same as overeating or not exercising. Our actions do not define who we…

A friend of mine who is a hairdresser and fanatical about her kids having clean hair, was appalled when one of her kids came home with lice. Sometime they just can't be avoided when our kids are in school. Those critters are stubborn and as you are finding out can be really hard to get rid of completely. We are rooting for…

Amen to that! The Word talks about being unequally yoked for a good reason! It is confusing for the children for sure. And like a number of people here, I too hate religion. Christianity isn't about religion (man's effort to reach God) but about relationship with Jesus Christ. (God's way of reaching man). I married my…
