Hi Paula. I'm in! Just decided this week I really have to get serious about
my weight and get more exercise. Going to cut down on my bread intake and try to do exercise in the gym at least three times per week. I do walk the dog every day for at least a mile but know that is not enough. Will try to make healthy choices and write down in a journal what I eat daily. Going on vacation next week with a girlfriend to Cape Cod but will still make healthy choices! Thanks for the encouraging post. Lois
