    Ran an easy 3 this morning. I know that it was both "easy" and "3" because I used my new Garmin!

    I love my new Garmin! I freaked out a little though the first time I used it in the pool. Which one did you get?

    You will become a "slave" to that device very quickly. No more 4.99 mile runs...gotta keep going 'til the Garmin says 5:00!

    Ain't that the truth! But I love having my distance and pace available at a glance and it keeps pace on the treadmill, too!

    Easy 3 miles today and P90X3 The Challenge (6/15). The 3rd and final beach race is tomorrow. I'm praying for overcast skies and a nice breeze off the water!

    @BettyM1017 -- The Garmin 920XT. So far, awesome. I will test the weirdness of swimming with it tomorrow. :)

    Hi! Turned 40 this year, would love to join in. Right now most of my activity is biking and boxing classes. Most of my eating is too much. ;)

    This made me LOL. :)

    Got my FitBit! Not even a watch-wearer, so it's going to take some getting used to. Today's main exercise was walking a 1/2 mile uphill to tennis courts - played for an hour (needed 2 breaks!), then walked for another 45 minutes. So, according to the FB, I've done just over 15k steps, climbed the equivalent of 34 floors and burned 1,910 calories. Food has been good today, but am starving and dinner is at least 2 hours away... Willpower, don't fail now! (I think a healthy snack might be in order).

    40ish gal here need to.lose 73 lbs already lost 13 lb so far in addition to working on the 73 lbs been on a stall though I'm a caregiver to my mom full time and part time to 2 little grand kids. Lucky not to be at work for now, but these days keep me busier than any job I've had. Trying to fit it all in exercise, eat right etc but it's tough. Thanks for sharing love this thread.

    Nobody over 40 is cool. Maybe we can lose weight however.

    New kid here... not sure if there is a 50+ group... but since I am in the + side of the 40... I'll hang here for a while. After all, this IS the place where the cool kids are.

    New here on MFP.... add me if you'd like.
