Thank you Nancy!
I love cats of all kinds!
50 that is a good age to get the weight off if one hasn't accomplished it before! Of is like me I been at goal more times than I would like to remember, but did work at keeping the weight off due to emotional eating.
Have a Great Birthday! Will be nice to have a bit of weight off by then. Aunt Bee

Hi, Genie and everyone! I am still 49, but I will turn 50 in less than two weeks. I have two daughters in college, no grandchildren yet. I am a 4th grade teacher and I live in central Illinois. I have struggled with my weight for over 20 years. I love Spark People! I lost 6.5 pounds so far and I plan to lose 40. I love this board as well! Aunt Bee, I love the picture. I have a grey kitty and that photo is great!

Hi June
Thank you for the welcome. Wow...Hawaii sounds like paradise to me. Right now it's 10 degrees and snowing here in Vermont.
I am also 60, and have one grand child (HER picture on the left; she's much nicer to look at than I am!). She will be a big sister in September.
I just recalculated my weight loss goals because I've been at a standstill since Christmas. So hopefully I will get back on track. I want to lose about 30 pounds by June 15. My husband and I are going to Germany to a wedding in July, and that's sort of my motivation. If... WHEN I lose the weight I will have to make a new dress for the wedding, since nothing I have now will fit right.
Thanks again for your post. Hope you have a great day!
Genie

 Aloha and welcome to sparkpeople!!! Great place to be and so much information, and wonderful people.
Today, I'm at the computer game room with one of my grandkids - so while he is playing games, I'm here welcoming new people to our place.
I am June, 60 year old grandmother, living in Hawaii. Need to lose about 20 lbs.............and 25 would be great!!!
Aloha, June

My name is Genie, and I live in Vermont. I turned 60 in October, which is about when I joined Spark People. I lost about 12 pounds (30 or so to go) in the first couple of months, then Christmas came and it all went to h__! Gained back a couple #s, then lost them again.
The thing I like best about Spark: The pages for keeping track of stuff, especially meals/water. I also like the calendar/planner, since remembering appointments and things for 3 people is sometimes a problem.
Things that make me happy:
having my granddaughter come over ,
days without snow  ,
signs of spring (not yet this year),
a good book  .
Things that dont make me happy:
February 
arthritis flare -ups (getting more and more frequent)
I like these little smiley faces! How many of them can I put in one post?
Question: can someone tell me how to do one of the profiles? Couldnt find it the first time.
Good luck to everyone,
Genie
PS. I found the profile place!
