    Do I need to start a 50+ thread, or is a 56 year old welcome here?
    I am about 7 lbs down (started at 145), my goal is 125. I have been eating fairly clean for quite a few years, but I have been on-off with fitness and portion control.

    I am 56 as well, and they haven't kicked me out. :smile: Welcome!

    Showed up for my Wednesday fitness classes and the first one was cancelled. Stayed at the gym and rowed for 35 minutes. The second class was a go, so got another 45 min of good mix of strength and cardio in. :)
    Not a bad day in the end.

    @tojo_73 Oh, I feel for you. As @shellyld2016 , it will make home all the more sweeter.

    Christmas Bridge party tonight. Not sure I am going to be able to fit a workout in.

    Ugh, this morning, loaded up my board and my new paddle and headed to my usual launch location...white caps...now, when are white caps considered "light chop" per the forecast?! So, drove home, and unloaded the board. Wasn't feeling great, and didn't feel like battling the moderate chop, and know better than to go out in those conditions when I'm not feeling like I'm on my game. Bummer, since the forecast for the rest of the week doesn't look good (though if it is far off as today's forecast was...). There is always next week, I guess. :/

    Feeling pretty meh today, but at least got my butt outside to do my CHRISTmas decorating, and some light gardening (trimming hedges, spraying for weeds, spraying perimeter of house for bugs). Not a huge calorie burn, but at least it was some activity for a couple of hours. Think my meh feeling is just peri-menopausal hormones kicking up...grrrr. This too shall pass. :confounded:

    I have a scheduled rest day today and I'm enjoying it. Legs were very heavy yesterday.
    This weekend's training will be done in cold and windy conditions. Tomorrow's workout is an 8.5mile tempo run that I expect will be fairly uncomfortable. Sunday will be an easy paced 14 miler...much more fun.

    Happy Friday

    I'm jealous you have bridge friends. My wife and I play SAYC socially but we haven't found partners yet. We tend to get made fun of by people who don't play. I don't understand how people can love Euchre and not want to play Bridge (adult Euchre :) )

    44 and checking in! Lost well over half my body-weight over the past few years, but always gaining and losing above where I want to be now. Just need to learn mature consistency, I think. That impulse kid in a candy-store nonsense has to go.

    Happy Monday all. If I believed in a past life, I was definitely a critic of the world's finest dark chocolate. I have tried magnesium, not having any in the house, yet I wake up and the first thing I want is dark chocolate. I could live off of it if I could. Anyways, TRX done. Will take hot barre later. Have a great day kids.
