    I hit that milestone this year too, as all my sisters are so pleased to keep reminding me of. I am trying to get fit and stay that way, so I can look good, feel good, be healthy and stay that way for a very long time. I would like some friends to journey along with me.
    Thanks:heart:

    I am getting close, and I can admit that I'm not excited about it. But regardless, I'm working on the rest of me right now....nothing we can do about Father Time!

    Turn the big 5-0 in 10 days. Heading out on a cruise to St. Thomas and St. Maarten to celebrate. Can't wait.

    I've seen a lot of great posts here for newbies. I joined a while back, ignored it for awhile , turned 50 in the mean time, now I think I want to try again. Been fit all my life but suddenly everything seems to be heavier and going south. I think having encouragement will help and connections here will help. I'm working the attitude thing. :)
