| Hi everyone Joined today. I am 56 and 70 lbs. overweight. I have always been between sz. 8 and 10 until several years ago when stressful situations and improper eating and dieting slowly packed it on. Problem was that I didn't appear to be as big as I truly was (solid). Now I am at the point where I need to get back to a comfortable and healthy size. One day at a time and a pound at a time just as it was gained.
