Good morning friends,

My name is Scooter. Its been many years since I was on this forum. I lost over 70 pounds back in the early 2000's. My family ended up moving to Las Vegas where my wife and I have been the last 9 years. Sadly, two months ago I lost her to lung cancer. It happened so quickly. But 2017/2018 were not kind to my health as well. I went from 250/260/295, and I have to do something about my weight now, or not be here for our children (all grown up, but still refer to them as children. I am 55 years old (56 in two months). I am 5ft 11inches. I know the days of weighing 179 pounds will never happen again. My first goal is to lose at least 50 pounds. So wish me luck in this crazy journey. Nice to meet you all
