This public diary, just might do the trick! I just found this site, maybe 20 minutes ago. But I do like it! But I think I might be ya'lls oldest member 51. A very young 51 though! I have been up and down in weight for years. But now I have diabetes. And I have to get it off or...... Well diabetes is not fun.
If I get low enough The doc says I can get off all meds. And I can live life pretty much normal. So tonight at midnight I start. I need major support. An intervention if you will. Cause I honestly love to eat. I live in North Carolina we were born to eat! So I will make a effort to be here every night. To confess to ya'll good or bad!

Cameorose:rolleyes:
 
Welcome!! And if you keep track of the things you eat, be honest with yourself, and get in exercise, you'll be fine! This place is a fantastic place for support. Just always keep your chin up!!
 
Thanks UnderCoverBeauty

Your the first person, to respond thanks, I noticed your from Pa. I was raised there, Indiana. I need to lose 120. I hope I can. I've been touring the site. and figuring out how it works. Seem's fine. Can't wait to post with a weight loss!! to bad this thing doesn't have audio, cause you'll hear me Yell! Haleluyah!!:D
 
Congratulations for taking control of your life. It sounds so easy but everyone here knows how hard it can be to keep in check your weight and diet. Good luck! If you need help with ideas or want to share there are plenty of us here to listen and share back! Age is pretty much ignored around here from what I can tell - we're all in it together :) Again, good luck cameorose!
 
Once you start seeing those numbers come down I'm sure we will hear you regardless :D I've noticed though, if you keep track of your weight and see how much you want to lose, slowly knocking those numbers off is thrilling. I'm a very impatient person, but going from 85lbs to needing only 79.5lbs off, being impatient doesn't seem like such a big deal anymore!
 
Thanks Rachie & UnderCoverBeauty

I shall do my best. And I guess age doesn't matter. Cause Fat don't know how old you are. It could care less who it attaches it's self to! I would like to tell you something, I do go to ww. There is a girl there. Who is blind and her kidney's are having problems. And do you know that it is because of FAT.I can't remember the name it's called but, because of to much fat of her system it caused her blood pressure to sky rocket and made her go blind. That scared the hell out of me(Excuse me) but I can't think of a better word. And now her kidney's are in trouble. I'll ask her again when I see her. But I didn't know you could go blind from being to heavy. Talk about a wake up call. I am determined! Any tips or idea's let me know!!
Gotta go and put the cat out! He's driving me Crazy!!
Bye Bye:)
 
Eeeep! I didn't know that! I mean I know being over weight has a lot of health risks, but I never thought someone could go blind =(
 
Blind? That's crazy! Wow. I think with the age thing I meant just for talking to folks and sharing. I think weight loss ease can change a bit with age but it's the long haul and health that most of us are in for :) I do love your "fat don't know how old you are" comment - I might have to steal that from you for future use!!! I would recommend adding your food each day to start and people can suggest things. I must admit I do much better when I have people scrutinizing my diet!!!
 
welcome to the forums. I can assure you a lot of the members are all ages - im pretty sure there are several members your age or older also.
We also have some members who are on the younger end - though we have rules to not allow people below 18.

Its funny how getting something like diabetes or similar can shake you up a bit.
Im just glad i woke up to myself at a fairly young age of 33. I still have plenty of time to fix what i broke with my body - though i havnt had any major illnesses yet related to it. I was surely heading right down the path for it!
 
Hey Cameorose. Welcome to the forum. I am a newbie myself - started just a few days ago. But we'll keep eachother on track. Have faith, we can do it :D

By the way, I am one of those on the younger side...Seventeen. :)

<3

Hey Ya'll
Yes you may use my phrase, It's true "Fat don't know your age" it's Evil it just glom's on to you and hang's on for dear life, it's gettin fed and it don't wanna leave. So we have to make it starve so that it dissapears. Sound's simple don't it. NOT!!! Thanks to everyone for making me fell like I belong. Ya'll have a good support system.
I though about lying about my age, but then why? Ya'll can't see my wrinkles or my graying hair, and my 3 chin's. Hey you have to laugh at your self sometimes, it makes yourself easier to live with!!
There is an old wives tell that say's, where ever you want the fat to go away from, you pinch it up, and say"go away, go away,go away" then throw your arms out. And it's suppose to work. Well it hasn't for me! If it works for some one out there let me know!!!
