  • Well, my belly is in competition with my feet and another "extremity", but then I'm an old geezer male. :D Thanks for your open and fun post! We all need more levity in this most difficult journey. Best wishes for success to all! If anyone wants an old geezer friend, feel free to add me. I know I can use all the help and…

  • Hi, all! I just joined this group and I have an important question ..... where did you hide all the men???? :huh: I decided to try the "Check-in" idea because I need to keep myself motivated by telling others what I've done and what I haven't done so someone can give me a virtual kick in the butt when I need it. I know I…
  • If you don't mind having an old geezer as a friend, feel free to add me. We both have about the same amount to lose, and I can use the support as well. We can do this! :smile:
