---I love Weight Watchers. Its great for me because I like vegetables. Lost 30 pounds that way with no exercise one summer-off work, no stress eating. Yes, Sarah, cooking for a family really complicates things. Insta Pots are AMAZING! I wonder if you would like an elliptical instead of a treadmill, easier on the joints. I do find it easiest to lose weight through exercise. The only exercise that I really enjoy is water aerobics. Yes, it takes discipline to go in this nippy weather (and this is Phoenix), but I can go 4 days a week if I want. I have been steadily gaining weight, more and more since I retired about 6 years ago. The creeping crud. I have a gut for the first time in my life. They say carrying weight in the front is particularly hard on ones heart.
Well, thanks for this thread, maybe it will get me back on track!
