Hey Liz!

We have a great, active Carb Counters forum - you may want to check it out! Also, we have the 40-somethings support group...you might enjoy posting there.

You also could check out the 100 lb club, a group for those losing or who have lost around 100 lbs or more. It is a great, active, supportive group, full of advice.

As far as losing with medical/prescription obstacles, you might also see our "Dieting with Obstacles" forum.

As you can tell, there are a ton of spots for you to explore and find others in similar situations, so look around, settle in, and keep going. Can't wait to get to know you better!

Welcome Liz I am new here too and have a great deal of reading to do too. I am just a bit older than you (turned 50 in July) but I to am on medication that can be a bit of an obstacle, I take medication for high blood pressure and the dreaded hormones for hot flashes and night sweats lol ain't it grand getting older lol

anyway I think we are going to get a great education and some great support
