    51 here and trying to improve both weightlifting and running, so I don't lose more muscle along with this fat I'm trying to get rid of. Getting over a months-long bout of adhesive capsulitis and am grateful to be able to lift again.

    Good morning middle agers. :D
    Got a 5 1/2 mile run / walk in last night. Tough go as we got a fair bit of snow. It was like running in sand.
    Now that's some dedication! Nice work @sdereski and 1000 extra cals per day isn't exatly slouchin' either @KANGOOJUMPS ...

    ... I'm just a slacker, I guess!

    50, with a junior in high school and a senior in college. Raising them on my own for eight years. I love my kids, wouldn't be here without them. I love lifting, use to powerlift. I recently bench pressed 385, pressed 225 lbs for 30 reps. Incline 345 lbs Saturday, all this after total rotator cuff repair 3 years ago. Add me if you're old(lol) and lift heavy.

    Hi all

    I'm 45 year old female from belgium be a part of mfp family for a while but always looking for motivated serious friends
    Like the name of this post so if you want to add me feel free to do.
    I had loss weight 11kg (24 lbs) but the last months I gain almost everything (I had a virus but honestly it was an easy excuse to do no workouts).
    So I need friends that give me good kicks under the butt ;) and be honest I can handle that :D

    I'll be 50 in Febuary ! - Feel free to add me ....and a bit about me Just a quick intro . I'm Jon and based in Surrey, UK.
    Ex IM athlete when my body fat was below 10% and I looked fit and healthy. Ten years on I still do a bit of running, cycling but my cloths no longer fit me . I decided to 'invest' in a set of bathroom scales today and despite the denial for a long time I realise I am obesed, fat , though I still like to think fairly fit.
    So hear I am now writing this and deciding what action plan to take. Would love to hear about your inspiring stories...

    Wow, lots of new activity on this thread! Exciting to have so many new friends in my age group. My "go to" exercise/workouts are varied, as I get bored doing the same thing all the time. So I power walk outdoors, or walk/run on the treadmill at home, sometimes do kickboxing, dance and hula-hoop. I don't have a gym membership, but considering it in the Spring to work on toning up after the weight loss. Hopefully, I will be at my goal weight by then. I love having new friends that are active, committed loggers with open diaries, who love to interact.

    I have a similar issue. My final pregnancy was really rough, and then I just never lost the baby weight and then some. Before that I was a hardcore gym rat and very fit--active my whole life. That's what I see in my mind's eye. Even though I've been very overweight for the last seven years, I'm still constantly surprised at how big I am when I catch my reflection or step on the scale.

    I'm now on a journey to make the reflection in the mirror match my mental picture of myself.
