I am a medical professional who counsels others on health and diet issues so I have no excuse for not using this information for my own benefit.My weight has increased over the past 3 years. i am unable to fit my clothes and not in a financial situation where I can replace them!

I'm 75, live in Seattle. Have a husband and two children, one in Philadelphia with two children, the other here in Seattle.. I do a lot of volunteer work. I love theater, opera and traveling - and try to combine these when possible. Before the market crash I did a lot of traveling and found myself most at home in Central Asia. With luck things will improve! I was diagnosed 6yrs ago with type 2 diabetes and - being scared to death - dropped 40 lbs rapidly. Now it is a lot slower. A lot. Age? Better than nothing!

I turned 50 in August of 2008. I'm 5'3". After losing a friend to breast cancer, I woke up and realized that I needed to take better care of myself. I worked very hard through all of 2009 and lost 25 pounds. I also inspired my husband (married 30 years) and youngest son to join me and they have lost weight and started healthier eating and exercise habits. All 3 of my kids are grown and gone. My oldest is married and has 2 lttle boys. I love entertaining and playing card games with friends and family. My favorite season is summer, when I can be outside as much as possible. I like to garden, do pottery, walk, swim, go sight-seeing, travel and try new things.

I'm 53 and my body is a bit ravaged from injuries, but I still get out. I currently hold the title of "Riverboarding World Champion in Freestyle Surfing" for what it's worth. I want to be thinner to be more attractive and lighter/meaner in sports. Energy is better thanks to my naturopath and the corrected thyroid dosage.
