Hi, Spring Chicken66740
I'm another old broad in my 50's.with 50 pounds to lose. I would be glad to be your buddy. I am married with two grown children and a cat.
I'm diabetic on oral meds with a nasty case or neuropathy in my feet which results in the occasional urge to take a chainsaw to them. I'm not on any diet at the moment, believe me, I've tried them all. I'm just trying to cut a lot of things out of my diet. I'm on a newer oral medication which works in a different way from the old medication which wasn't working very well any more. So far this new medication has not worked very well either, so I hope there's a Plan B other than insulin. I know I need to lose weight to help with the diabetes, but the oral medications make it almost impossible to lose.
I do a lot of walking and that seems to help. I have golfed for several years in a league and walked all 9 holes. The experts say that golf is not exercise. They obviously have no idea where I hit that ball; believe me, I see areas of the course that aren't meant for human eyes. I had rotator cuff surgery in January so I'm not golfing yet and I may be out for the season. It's healing really slow.
look forward to hearing from you.
