Yes. I think the reason I may have gained weight is eating way too many carbs. Now I am on pretty much a low calorie, low fat, low carb meatless diet. I eat fish. I had zucchini noodles for dinner and they were pretty great. (You need a special gadget to make them.) -- I think I had more patience with dieting when I was younger.

I had a neighbor who was in her 80's and she put herself on a diet and lost 40 pounds. Next thing you know this women was out snow shoveling! She became very active and stayed that way into her 90's. It was beautiful to witness.
