I may be repeating a past post/suggestion, but I just recently found a terrific site for anyone who is trying to lose weight and/or get more fit. It has forums (even one especially for people over 50), recipes, exercises, and tons more--all free. I have been on it a week and have been awed by how much information and support you get there. It's http://sparkpeople.com .

I know the feeling...I think it's a special challenge for boomer women. That's what appealed to me about this site--that it includes a forum and tips for our age group. smile

Lefty_Writer, you can't repeat good information too often cause some women miss seeing it the first time around. Thanks again!

We once had a BWS diet forum. WOmen posted their daily food intake and any exercise they did each day. Vicki Taylor lost about 50 pounds, or something big like that. Anyone interested? I could open a new forum. I know I need it!

maybe this time give the person option to track either eating or exercise or both things online.

Maybe give it a snappy motivational header. Example: Count Me In!

Or we just try it consistently for 1-3 full months..every day. We might surprise one another what we eat and type of exercise.. Our group of regular posters is small enough, that this tracking could become more personally interesting to observe one another as well.

hey includes walking down 18 flights of stairs in a highrise building for me nearly 2 wks. ago..because of a fire drill at work.

Anyone else in? Three so far.

Maybe we'll have a contest to name the forum.
