Think you are too old to accomplish your healthy weight goals?

Think you are too old to accomplish your healthy weight goals?

I recently had a 70-year-old woman say she is too old to get healthy. Her blood sugar is over 400. She is obese and takes four different meds. I told her a few of the following stories from our success journals: Becky: I’m currently on the program. I’m 68, and I kept telling myself the same thing, “I was too old.” I’ve lost 40 pounds and I am off all medication my doctors had once prescribed. I feel better than I have in years. 12/10/2022 07:13 AM
