I'm on a quest for a healthier life. As I have aged, the weight has crept on. I was never thin but this is the heaviest I have ever been, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis three years ago and that has made exercise more difficult. Swimming is about the only thing I can do that doesn't result in pain. I am borderline diabetic and my cholesteral is going up. I need to get a handle on things and I'm looking forward to giving this program a try.

Thanks so much for the words of understanding and encouragement Pat. I did pretty good all day today but tonight my granddaughter is spending the night with me so we got pizza for dinner and of course, I had not one, not two, but three pieces of cheese pizza. And now I just feel stuffed and miserable. I don't know why I can't stop myself! Well, tomorrow is another day.

Hi MJ, I'm so sorry to hear that you cat is ill. Of course I know how you feel, what with my baby being sickly for such a long time.. It's not easy shelling out $900 hundred dollars for a little pal that can't say one word to me.. but her eyes say 'please help me', and that's where my heart stands still until I can figure out a way to do that.. I hope you kitty cat gets better soon.

I hear ya about the late night snacking, cause I was a nibble freak! I stay up late watching tv and want to eat myself to sleep, but I'm trying to not do that now.. I just had to put my mind to the fact that I am either going to do it this way, or die that way.. being over weight most of my life has really taken a great total on my health now.. and I know the older I get the worse it will be if I don't start changing things now..

You can do this hon, you just have to set your mind to it, and take it slow.. as everyone around me says, you didn't get that way over night, and it won't change over night. Well I best get off the soap box before I talk myself in to feeling guilty about my hamburger and fries that hubby paid for tonight.. ha ha.. see I'm BAD , but it was GOOD... tomorrow is a NEW day..


Keep going, you can do it... emoticon - Pat
