I agree. I think it is an over 50 thing, I too have gained weight but I don't think it is funny at all. I am going to try and start walking if it ever cools down where I live. I just had a birthday a few days ago and this is the 1st year I didn't freak out about it but I still don't like it. I think part of it is all the changes I am having to go through, basically starting over from scratch. Maybe I have just been depressed for 2 years now and I am just getting used to living this way,Hell I don't have any answers. I wish I did know a bit more at my age but I am sorry to report I don't.
