    Three Days In, Three Pounds Gone

    Hi everybody,

    Six Footer here. I'm 55 years old, female, used to be a marathoner and triathlete until hip and shoulder problems got too bad. Of course, even though I wasn't working out, I was still eating like a horse and gained 50 pounds. Developed some extremely bad habits out of frustration and anger that my body abandoned me. So I'm dealing with a number of addictions here. Finally accepted the fact that life is what it is, and deal with it. You guys sound supportive and pleasant, not at all arrogant. God knows I need support. Thanks for being here, and I'll continue to post until I hit my goal ... and thereafter!
