I am 68 years old and have always been heavy. I have lost and gained weight back but really want to keep it off. I have been changing my lifestyle and have lost a significant amount of weight. Now I have been gaining due to my medicines, so I know I need to increase my exercise. I have severe arthritis, so I am going to get a pool membership next month and hopefully this will get me losing again.

    As we express our gratitude we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them-John F. Kennedy

    Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

    Yes, it is important to remember all of our Service Men and Women. I currently have two active nephews in the Navy. They have been helping with the hurricane relief efforts. Thanks for keeping in touch. I still don't have the Internet, but I am staying a few days with my granddaughter. I do so miss all of my virtual friends. Kaylee graduates December 9th, and I am hoping she will be able to get a better job. Hope you are all doing well. I have been gaining some weight due to the side effects of the medication I am taking, so I hope to get off it soon. If what I am currently doing doesn't work pretty soon, I will have to have back surgery. I know I can't just live with this nerve pain the rest of my life. Anyway, I will try to keep in touch when I am able. emoticon emoticon

    Hope you are hanging in there. Can you do exercises with your arms and upper body?.

    Today is National POW/MIA day. Don't forget. Freedom isn't free; these brave men and women paid for it.

    Hi to all of my virtual friends!!!! I miss you all so much. I have now been ordered to not exercise and I had an MRI of my back and hip last week. I will get the results August 9th from the hip surgeon. My pain is not quite as bad as it was with increased medication and compete rest. My challenge to you all is lose the weight now before it is too late. One's joints can only support the extra weight for so long, so PLEASE LOSE THE WEGHT NOW BEFORE YOU GET OLDER. I just hope I am not permanently disabled. I so wish I would have learned how to eat healthier years ago, so read all of the articles on here and heed all of the advice and JUST DO IT. Don't feed yourself or your family junk foods and take control NOW!!! emoticon emoticon emoticon emoticon
