I have been a "yo-yo" much of my adult life. I was average as a kid, but really ballooned in my 40's. I lost 50 pounds at the age of 46, and regained it within 7-8 years. I am an emotional eater. As I age, and my metabolism slows, it makes losing weight much more difficult than in previous years. To add more reasons to lose, I am getting arthritis in my knees. I am only 56 and I have much more to accomplish before I "retire to the couch"
