Hi,  Go to the message board titled "over 70 WLC"  I am sure they would welcome you. 

Good Luck,  You can do it with the attitude you have.

Hey,  Welcome to the board.  I think you have come to the right place.  All the ladies here are nice ones. :)  Start reading Dr. Phils book.  That is very important.  And exercise is also very important.

I am so glad the boards are back.  It really helps to be accountable.  I have to start reading the book again--I promised>  LOL  I will have to admit I haven't been doing to well on the food lately,  I think I need to clean out the junk.  My daughter and granddaughter started on a diet this week, so that will be helpful for me to.  AGAIN WELCOME.  Dolores

Thanks Ginnyjane,   Vacations are always nice, but it is always good to get back home (where it isn't so HOT)  LOL  I need to get back in the book to.  I promised Joy on a post earlier that I would start, but haven't gotten started yet.  I am glad everyone was able to keep in touch while the boards were down.  I hope Jane and Lois makes it back soon to.  Wish we could get a few more.

Later,  Dolores

Hey Joy,  I haven't started the book either.  I don't know what goes with my time.  (old age I think) LOL  But I am hoping to get it started sometime before bedtime.    I was like you, I made a few circles to before deciding to post.   Eating in bed isn't one of my things, but I just like to graze all day.  I am trying, but I don't know what is wrong with me.  I am trying to eat healthy, but even to much of healthy is not good.

Sorry to hear you have shingles.  I have heard that could be miserable.  Hope it gets well soon.

Well guess I better get off this thing and start thinking about what I am cooking for supper.  Talk to you later.  Dolores

How is everyone doing today?  I finally started the book yesterday afternoon.  I haven't finished the first chapter yet.  I hope Jane and Lois make it back.  We need more people on here to help us out. :)  I understand junk and snacks.  yep, I still have the peanut butter to.  :)  One of my favorites, and I love almond butter to.  It is on the Dr. phil food list tho. (the reduced fat kind)

ABLE READY--Hope your surgery goes well.  I had surgery in April and haven't exercised since then, but my intentions is to start on August First.  I do really miss it and feel much better and more limber when I do.  Well guess I better get off here and read "THE BOOK" FOR A WHILE.  Dolores

Hey AJ,  Well this is Friday so you probably won't be reading this for a while.  I hope your surgery went well.  It sounds like you are excited about doing this and that is good.  I have met my goal on the weight, but it is very challenging to keep it off.  Don't let anybody tell you, you are to old to worry about your weight.  I am 73 and I have lost a hundred pounds.  It has taken me two years to do that, but worth every bit of it.  I was on two blood pressure meds and they have taken me off both of them and put me on a real light one.  My doctor is thrilled with my progress.  I think the most important thing for me has been the exercise.  If I don't exercise I don't loose wt.  I had surgery on the 12 of April and haven't exercised since then, but MONDAY it is back to exercise for me.  Dr. Phils plan works.  In the begginning I was not on Dr. Phil.  I was going to a doctors office, they guided me and it has worked for me.  Then I  saw Dr. Phil's weight loss challenge on TV.  I came to the boards and the support here is great.  I do have about four that I read.  I was the one that invited you to this one.  If you don't have his book and food guide, I would suggest that you get it, and just do what it says.

I have started reading the book again.  I am almost done with the first chapter.  You learn something new each time you read it.  I am looking fwd to getting to know you.  Sorry I haven't been on the last couple of days, but have been so busy.  Talk you you later,  Dolores

Girl, it sounds like you are into the exerise.  That is great.  Strengh training is good.  My doctor told me that would be good for bones.  Sounds like you have a great plan.  I am looking fwd to get back to exercise on Monday.  The gym you are going to sounds like a good one.

I did start the book.  I have almost finished the first chapter.  I find something new every time I read it.  It won't be long before I have to start answering questions.  LOL  I don't really like to do that part,  guess that tells me I really need to. HUH?

Hope you have having a good day,  Dolores

Good to see you back on the board.  UMMM  Corn on the cob sounds sooo good.  That is one of my favorites, but the corn we get here isn't that great.

Like I told the other gals, I have started the book again.  It is a real challenge to keep the wt off after loosing it.  It is a never ending battle.  I make good choices, BUT  it is to often I am afraid.  Going back to exercise on Monday will help that tho.  (I hope)

Later,  Dolores

Joy it is great going to the gym isn't it.  I am looking fwd to going back on Monday.  I have wanted to try the ball, but I am a little nervous doing it at the gym.  LOL  I might embarrass my self.  I think my son has one.  I might see if he will let me borrow it and try it out.  Of course if he doesn't have the book or some kind of instructions I would be lost.

Has any one heard from Lois?  I miss her on the board.  Hope everyone else is having a good day.

I am slowly reading the book.  I think it does help.  I am getting to a place I think I have to do the evaluations tho and I am not to good at that.

Well guess I better get off here and fix lunch.  My daughter and granddaughter is on a diet now, so I am trying to have something they will eat.  I keep telling them it is a life style change.  I don't know if they are paying attention or not.  LOL

Well I will talk to you all soon.  Dolores  PS Where is everyone this morning?
