As you know it's not good for our knees to be overweight. I want my new knee replacement to last the rest of my life. I'm doing Slim Fast twice a day, snacks in between and a sensible dinner. I'm only 5' 2" and weight 156, which is the most I've ever weighed in my life. Let's lose it together.
Hi Theresa Lovely to get your contact. I am having a bit of trouble navigating the site and am a bit slow but working on it.Sorry about your pain,and know that we will do what we can to ease it.I am on fairly heavy medication and need to take responsibility to help myself by loosing weight.I feel the best way for me would be to have a buddy to support me on a regular basis. Having been on a number of weight loss programs over many years I believe my best shot is to count calories and to account to a non-judgemental person often. I would love to work with you if u are interested
