Still learning how to use the forum. I am 67 and weigh 260. Yes I am freakin short too, barely 5 ' .Struggle all of my life. Lost 130 pounds once kept off for a few years and have gained it back. How many things in life I have missed out on because of my weight. I live alone and really do not have others to talk to about my new journey. I am next facing visit with nutritionist to start 3 month diet.I am told this is strictly for insurance.I sort of, well actually resent being told to diet.Hey I have done enough of that and don't make a decision at 67 to go under the knife in a frivolous manner. I will look at it as a positive to see what I can learn. Already I feel better having had a few responses from this forum group as I am on my journey alone. I have chose to only tell two friends who do not judge. I want the next 10 years of my life to be joyful and not feeling isolated and judged because I am fat. Thanks for your kind words guys.
