I just turned 53 yrs old this April and one of my goals is to finally get down to goal weight, exercise more, and in general live a healthier life.

I started out at 185 back in 03, and am now down to 140, despite a serious back injury that has kept me housebound until recently.

I did it by changing one item at a time in my diet, and by adding 5 min of movement every day.

I was all ready a vegetarian, but now eat very little sugar, or high starch products, and have started to eat non-processed vegetarian protein sources instead of veggie conv foods.

I started out by walking just 5 minutes at a time, and now I am walking 2-5 miles a day at 5 mph.

Considering that last fall I was using a cane to assist me with balance and walking, and I now no longer need that prop, I am thrilled to finally be out and about again.
