Guest guest Posted January 20, 2004 Report Share Posted January 20, 2004 Hi! I'm a newbie too. I just joined WW online. I was debating between this or doing South Beach and I decided to go with WW. I think it would be too hard for me to give up the carbs. At least with WW you can have some. I'm 48 will be 49 next month. I do have a question. Does anybody have suggestions on exercise for someone with bad knees? Any suggestions are appreciated! Dana Newbie Hi Everyone! I am new to this group. I was in WW a while back and lost about 25 pounds, but quit and thought I could do it on my own. Right!! Well, I've gained about 15 back and am starting back on WW. I will attend my first meeting Wednesday evening. I am looking forward to being in control again and the accountability. My new motto is: Healthy to the Core in 2004!!
