I lost 68 pounds before moving here. When I arrived people warned me about the Village 30. After being here two months, I think it is because most people are eating out every day and LOTS of happy hours. We won't go into about riding around in golf carts all day. They didn't say how many pounds were usually added on tthe second year. I brought two bicycles and going to mow my own yard just for exercise. It's a different world when your not carry that extra 50 or 60 pounds around.
