Over the last five years my lifestyle changed and so did my weight and fitness level. At first I did not pay too much attention, but now I know I have to get back in shape, and lose about 10lbs. I will give it my best shot. I know I am not a young thing any longer, and it will not be easy, but I have to at least try.
The biggest challenge is the exercise I hate to exercise.
The Internet is a grand thing when you are looking for tools to help in your endeavors. I came across MyFitnessPal, which for me, is going to work the best. I can enter all the foods I eat for each day, including all the nutritional stats, log all exercise I do, track my weight lost every week, and have the support of others in the program, and it is all FREE.
A feature I really like, is that I went in and planned menus for a whole week, then printed them out, so every day I know exactly what I will have for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks. Having the menus planned and printed, also tells me what foods I need to purchase.
I started my new lifestyle changes yesterday and liked all the food I had chosen for the day, and, I actually got on my stair climber and put in a "little" time which was not as easy as I remember it had been in the past. This tells me I am really out of shape.
So, wish me luck, and stop by now and again to check my progress.

Good luck. You seem to be going about this very intelligently. And it's only a few pounds.

Hey Ms KeeWeeh, if I can do it, slothful as I was, I'm sure you'll not have a problem. Just remember, walking will do it!

good luck keewee, I lost 2 stone last year and am hoping for another 2 this year. Then I will only be a stone over weight.
I am right there with you girlfriend!!!
I need to get on to the exercise part! It is so cold at my house and my walking program is on hold. May have to get a treadmill!
I just know you will be able to drop the unwanted pounds!
