I'm 45, married, and kidless. Our kids are all grown. They are my son, 25; my daughter, 22; dh's son, 20, and dh's son, 18. Plus my son has given us a granddaughter.
We move to North Carolina last August. The kids and most of my family are back in WI and MN. I miss them all terribly.
About me: 246 lbs. Started ATkins today, although was on it for around a year, about one year ago. I'm looking forward to feeling good and getting all this weight off.
I used to live in Killeen TX in the mid 80s with my first husband. We were Army at Ft. Hood. I never wanted to go to TX due to all the spiders and snakes I heard about. But I loved TX, just like I loved all the placed I have ever lived.
How long have you been LCing. Which plan are you on? Atkins also?
God's blessings to you,
Randi

My oldest is a son who is 28 and my next oldest is a daughter who will be 26 in October. BTW her father and I lived in Killeen and Temple while he was stationed at Fort Hood during the late 70's. Then we were in Germany for about a year and a half. They both live near by. They have their own homes. My daughter blessed us with a sweet grand daughter who unfortunately lived only 6 days. She had turners syndrone and needed a heart transplant. I don't have any other grand children yet. I am looking forward to that someday. My 16 year old son lives near Dallas with his uncle.
My sisters lived in Zebulon NC near Raleigh for many years. I have been to NC a few times. It's beautiful there. But Texas has a hold on me! 
I started Atkins on May 23rd this year. I had done a low carb plan twenty years ago and really lost alot of weight. But I haven't dieted since then and really packed the pounds on. This will be a way of life for me now. I want to be healthier and feel better. I already can feel the difference.  I hope to feel good enough to become as active as I used to be but I have a back problem and I am not sure if it will be physically possible. I am hoping losing the weight will be enough to allow more activity. I am being very cautious about that though because I don't want to injure myself.  . It's good to see all the Christians on this board. What a joy!
God Bless,
Carolyn
