I am a youngish senior of 64. I have been battling excess weight all my life. 2 years ago I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and without trying lost 30 pounds - that was scary for someone who has fought weight all their life - After chemo and radiation, those 30 pounds came back.... with a vengeance. I am so glad that my treatments were so successful that my body "took back it's weight", however, I could have done without that 30 plus an additional 30 pounds. So I am healthy, but back to being over-weight. I would like to intentionally take off weight.
