    Hi! 47 here. I walk over 10k steps a day and am trying to figure out which Beachbody video to dive into next. Thinking PiYo or P90. Down 25 of 50 pounds, very slowly.

    You guys are BRINGING IT!

    Rest day today in prep for a 5K time trial tomorrow. We're on a road trip to our old home town and dinner is going to be at our favorite Mexican place. Fingers crossed it doesn't come back to haunt me in the morning!

    Welcome! Congrats on losing 25 pounds! That's awesome!! If you've never done a BeachBody program, I'd recommend starting with 21 Day Fix. Unless you're me. then you foolishly jump right into Insanity, lol!!

    If you have done a few before, I'd go for P90X3. Lots of variety. Lots of modifications. And very effective!

    I'm looking forward to seeing what you decide!

    @gam3rguy Awesome run!!

    @caramelgyrlk That's some serious Hot Pilates! 90 minutes! That'll kick the core into shape.

    Camp Gladiator this morning. This is my 3rd class. I like it. It's a lot like my favorite BeachBody workouts but with a very encouraging group around you. And every class is different and has a different focus. I'm excited about what the month will bring.

    I also headed out on the kayak today. There were a few more people in the mangrove tunnels than I would have liked but it was still an awesome day.

    Oh, and I managed to sneak in a 4-mile run. Not bad for an old lady!

    I'd join but I'm eternally 39 bwahaha... I wash my fruit before I eat it, does that count as eating clean? seriously what does "eating clean" mean and is there legit science pointing the actual benefits of it that can't be explained by just normal weight loss or simply diet diversification?

    Turned 47 right after arriving back in Afghanistan. Diet and food is what it is over here. So hard to eat right with the food they serve but it also helps with losing weight, plus the gym is pretty damn good. Always looking for inspiration to keep on track. Looking to go from 208ish to 185ish.

    Hi all. Welcome to all the new cool kids!
    Lifted on the weekend, and was so darn sore, I could barely bend over. Loved it! :D

    Spent a busy Saturday canning veggies. I was exhausted by the time I was done. I literally spent 10 hours in the kitchen with one 15 min sit down break. :p But its done!

    Committed to clean eating and lots of water for the month of September. If I can get through the month, I may try another, and another...isn't that how this goes? LOL.

    I have been around this block too many damn times. Need to stay on track.

    Hey! 41 years old and just now facing the fact that unless I put some serious work into it, I'm not going to get that bod of my early 30s back. I mean, I may not get it back anyway, but I'd take meeting it halfway there. Hoping to lose 15 lbs though 25 would take me to where I was about 7 years ago.

    @amandaeve I also go to a Title boxing club and kinda love it. Granted, I'm just getting back into it after a rough 6-7 months of hardly any exercise, but at this point, I'm glad to be back. I consistently find it challenging!

    @LoneDaisy I'm right there with you on a number of accounts. Trying to cut and not be hangry is ROUGH. I'm only on week 2 and still figuring out, but hoping that at some point my body (and mind) will adjust. It feels dramatic to target 1200 calories a day right now! Still figuring out what foods are low-cal and filling for me.

    Agreed. I'm sure I've got 10 seconds of adrenaline available. :)

    I lifted, today. A 75-minute session. Mostly legs and glutes and hips. So, I will be sore tomorrow.

    Also, a wasp stung me on saturday. It sure hurt. :(
