No weight gain here, but what was once muscle is turning to flab. Yes, I need more exercise.

Good advice. Too Late. Up 10 lbs since I've been here. The Good New York food,after living away for 30 years, is also a contributing factor.;)

Don't sweat it if you gain a few pounds........is anyone keeping score? Be kind to yourself and don't add more pressure to your already pressure filled life of caregiving. When the time is right, you will lose weight but above all, DO NOT DO IT FOR ANYONE ELSE, do it for you and you alone.......the heck with everyone else's mindless, ignorant opinions.

Been there, done that.......the weight gain, I mean. The diet will have to wait as I am in the midst of quitting smoking. One thing at a time, please......

I have gained weight also, I am almost 53 and I am going through menopause. Unfortunately I have always been an emotional eater, I eat healthy meals and I get a 45 minute walk in every day, BUT I binge when I need comfort and am feeling emotional. My start date is September 1st, I am not dieting per se but I am going to keep my calorie intake between 1300-1400 . Also, I am buying a hula hoop, they are suppose to be wonderful for losing inches around the middle. they say not to use it for more than 2 minutes each time, but work up to a few times each day! They are inexpensive so it's worth a try !!
