Welcome Sunflower
Don't be sorry for rambling, Sunflower. It helps all of us when you tell us what's going on with you. I am new here, this month, myself, but I can tell you that this is a wonderful group of people. Whenever I come here I find so much encouragement--it almost makes all this change easy.
I think it really does get harder for us to manage our weight as we get older. I never had a problem in my earlier years, but I've suffered from a chronic illness for 20 years and ten years ago I started gaining weight. I'm 62 now and for the last few years, it seemed to me that nothing was going to work to get any weight off. But--now I have found a sympathetic physician who is really helping me, and I'm watching what I eat and planning ahead, and it doesn't seem to hard. I've taken off a few pounds too (a very few, but to me anything is encouraging).
What I mean to say is, this may not be as hard as you are thinking right now. Once you get into it, there really is hope and you really can do it. So many people here are--of all ages and all kinds of circumstances. You are not alone in this.
