Just picking messages to read at random, at 38, it seems like I'm one of the older people here. Anyway, hello from Michigan. Looking to lose my beer/sugar gut. Haven't had any beer since New Year's Eve AND I was able to quit drinking Coke cold turkey AND I no longer put pounds of sugar in my coffee. That's half the battle for me... I hope. The site looks great.

Thank you! I should say I tried a Coke the other day and couldn't drink it all because it was too sweet. I was floored! I've been drinking that stuff for 30 years.

Welcome to ft. But by any means you are not the oldest here. I myself am 41 and I know there are more of us out there:big_smile:

Great job on the sugar. Its in the craziest foods you could imagine, especially fast food.

And over 500 too! Welcome aboard!:big_smile:

A little discipline at the table and at the gym might help reduce that belly!
