Turned 50 and I am certain my metabolism came to a halt!

:ohwell: I am a 53-year old woman with the impression that I am still in my 30's or 40's. My body has betrayed me! Still married over 31 years to my college sweetheart. He still thinks I am perfect. But, the mirror tells me otherwise...so does my closet!! We have two grown children - a daughter, 26, college grad who actually got a job and moved away from home. Our son is a 23-year old college grad and finished his first year of graduate school. We live in the beautiful Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. I have fibromyalgia, diagnosed 15 years ago. Last year I quit work due to stress and health issues. I feel much better, but my body got TOO relaxed. What is with this saggy stuff?( FYI, for you younger women bemoaning small breasts...it is a definite advantage later on. There is not much there to sag. :blushing:) I need to lose weight (family history of diabetes and osteoporosis) and tone up.
Off we go!
