Default Newbie also and pleased to meet yas

Hello..I'm Annie and I have been on here about a week and I just love you guys..love reading all your postings. I am a 54 year old mom and mawmaw and, since my first baby, gained a little weight after each one..then I quit smoking 4 years ago..yay me!!!..and really started packing it on and then it made my blood pressure go up and now I"m on meds..I also got re-married a couple of years ago and my hubby loves to eat and so do I so now I'm so chubby lol I can hardly tie my own shoes..I tried low carbs and my cholesterol went sky high and now I'm on meds for that..jeesh..so after many attempts and fails to eat healthy with fruits and veggies and very little meat, mostly fish and chicken, I have been binge free for a week now and happened upon this web site in a magazine and so happy to meet you guys and am determined like you all to get healthy and lose weight before I die of a heart attack or stroke..I want to live

Hi Annie,
Wishing you tons of success!
I'm curious how long you were low carbing before your cholesterol went up?
That's scary!
I hope you find some great support on these boards
Dancing with ya!
