    I'm 45 and just started my fitness journey 2 months ago. Down 13 lbs. Just started a 60 day challenge at my gym to lose 10% body fat in that time. Had been doing mostly cardio but now I'm trying to do 3 days cardio and 3 days of strength training. Down 1.8% bf in the first week. Going on vacation for 6 days starting Friday and concerned about food/exercise. So yeah. That's me. Hi. I'm here!

    Y'all are inspiring, by the way, so thanks for that :-)

    Woke up stiff and sore so skipped my planned workout for yoga instead. It was good to see my flexibility remains terrible.

    @narak_lol over a 1000km for the month is awesome (I had a good month too at 275km :) and that's almost 11hr in the saddle for me)

    I'm an idiot! Managed to cut the bottom of my foot today after stepping barefoot on a laptop plug hanging out of my work bag. :s It's not too bad but is painful to walk on today so no running/cycling. Hopefully it will be fine tomorrow. Fingers crossed for me fit friends!

    Hi! I'm Kelly. Pretty new here. I did PINK Method back in 2011-2013. Kept it going for 20 months straight. Completed the program 7 consecutive times. I was so fit and felt great. Got down to 116 at one point! Too thin, so I tried to maintain 123. Then I had 3 family deaths, including my mother to lung cancer, and my life got out of whack for a while with the grief. I put on a lot of weight and got up to 139.2 by January of this year. So January 18th, I decided to do something about it. By the end of that week, I was ready to start PINK Method all over again. I lost about 15 pounds in 2 months! Right now I'm trying to maintain around 125. I feel pretty comfortable at this weight, and I can indulge in small treats and hang out there. I'm on my third round of PINK this year. I always intended to adopt PINK as a lifestyle, not as a diet. I don't intend to let life get in the way again. I like feeling healthy and fit. I'm 44, going on 45. I have 3 kids (17, 12, and 8). I've been happily married almost 22 years. The PINK Method website went away today, so I'm back to using the DVD's instead of streaming online, and I found this site about a week ago as a new place to start logging my meals and exercise. I love it so far! It's so easy to use because the database of foods is so extensive. Thanks for letting me join in! I'm living PINK!
