Hi turtlelady, welcome, if you're looking to lose weight I'd recommend you to write a diary in the diary section, it helps a lot.

Welcome to the forum.

I love to dance too. What is your favourite kind of dancing? I do either salsa or zumba on 6 days of the week. I am not nearly as fond of swimming... Swimming does however have a fantastic reputation as being beneficial while the water supports weight...

If you have been trying to lose weight for a long time - I assume that you are being careful with your food - eating healthy things at sensible portion sizes.

Are you trying to lose much weight?
