Charlee...1st...CONGRATULATIONS! That is terrific. Keep up the good work :D
2nd. Thank you for the good advice. Yes, we fall into habits that are devistating to our bodies. A simple lifestyle change goes a long way toward weight loss. The older we get, the more difficult (but NOT impossible) it is to lose weight.
3rd. Only you can do what must be done to lose the weight. No one else can do it for you.
4th. Walking is the cheepest and easiest form of exercise. No $$ or equipment required. :D
