    FOR looks and being 50 I want more strength as I age. I am a firm believer that as u age u workout more not less. Might be gross to some but I love that sweaty stinky feeling after a good workout!

    To avoid all of the health problems that run in my family and to be a good role model for my younger siblings 🥰 I also just enjoy how it makes me feel physically and emotionally.

    I saw pics of myself at my binge eating sedentary lifestyle a few years ago and decided I did not want to be that person. Now I enjoy looking at my reflection as I pass by, seeing the changes.

    I am enjoying learning discipline of eating healthy and hitting the gym

    Health?
    Strength?
    Functionality?
    Looks?
    Medals?

    All of the above! I started working out, lifting, walking, biking, and eventually running, in order to help control my blood glucose and improve my diabetes. Gaining strength was an unexpectedly fun benefit, which also made me more able to function in my daily activities. At the age of 50 and starting from morbidly obese, I never expected to be “hot” again, but lately all kinds of people are chatting me up and my husband is delighted with my appearance. And recently (when I can avoid injury) I have discovered I am fast enough to win age group medals at some local events.

    Because I want to:
    1. Be competitive when I start running this horse next year.
    2. Be the same size at 45 that I was at 30.
    3. The thought be being a weak old woman freaks me out.
    4. So that all the clothes in my closet fit.
    5. I can't stand the idea letting myself go as I get older.
    6. I LOVE being outdoors - it's good for the soul.
    7. Wear a bikini without being embarrassed.
