  • Welcome to the site. I joined months ago - but just became active a couple weeks back. The site is awesome - the people are even better! I just turned 50 this past April & figured there's no time like the present to get back into some semblance of shape.

  • Hi there! You have my prayers - and support (a couple of things we could all use :smile: ). Feel free to add me as a friend, because I could sure use some of those walk this "road to wellness" with me too.

  • Hiya! I'm another newbie & I thought I'd offer you a bit of encouragement.
