Tippy, glad to have you join us. I couldn't help but notice your comment about exercise - or the lack of... You must be younger than I. It used to be easy to lose without exercise, but now I find that it is essential to loss - and to looking fit when the weight is off. The muscles somehow make my body behave better when I get them toned up...
Well, no idea how old you are, but I'm going to be 60 in April.. but I'm also an Operating Room Nurse and do lots of running and lifting.. and I frequently work with the Bariatric service and our patients range from 215 upwards sometimes to 500 lbs. and more. so figure the lifting there. Lots of times I'm totally beat when I get home. I did get some yoga DVD's and I'm going to try that.
