Howdy all, I've been reading posts on 3FC for a couple months now and guess I'm ready to join the gang! Looks like a great support group and who doesn't need support?!
This isn't my first time losing weight, but I hope it's my last! I'm 44 years old and have been watching (or trying not to notice) my weight climb steadily over the past ten years. I remember, and have a photo to prove it, being 127 lbs. and wearing some slinky black jeans - what the heck happened? Somehow I got off track. I want to get rid of this excess weight, and I'm hoping that with the support of this community, I can keep it gone.
I have a few health issues to deal with, one being an arthritic condition that keeps me in constant mild to moderate pain as well as currently being severely anemic! This makes me very, very tired at times, but I'm trying to get outside for brisk walks daily, at least 3 miles a day. The South Beach Diet plan works well for me and I can imagine eating this way for the rest of my days - a major plus is that my DH and three sons enjoy it as well and are all seeing healthy results without even trying!
Anyway, thanks for having me and hope to be with y'all for a long time!
