Hi ladies and the lurking gentlemen. I'd like to join this group too, am 53 with 2 grown and gone kids, not a grammy yet though, our daughter is getting married in October and that is one of the tons of reasons I adopted this WOE. The sore knees and shortness of breath were at the top though and I must say the breathing is alot better, knees are still achy but I figure it will take more weight loss to correct that. Am also perimenopausal and thought perhaps that would have a negative impact on trying to lose weight as I'd always heard losing weight after menopause was nigh on impossible.
So far so good, 34 lbs in a little less than 2 months, I'm very pleased, I feel better than I have in years with just that amount gone, imagine what another 50 lbs off will do.
Secret to my success so far: keeping a food and activity diary and reading in this forum every day.
