of an "older" body builder :wink: :bigsmile: Lets show these youngsters they have nothing to worry about. Especially if they are starting to train their bodies now with good nutrition and regular exercise:laugh: Other folks in my age-group, I encourage you to post your progress photos here as well;)

I have a long way to go but I thought I would just see if a pic showed any diff in my bod. I got these shots, one blurry but it does show the definition I've gotten in 3-4 months. Most of this has come from kayaking and my new yayog workout:drinker: :drinker:

I'll be 60 in December and I feel 20 years younger. I have a long way to go but since this photo encouraged me, I am hoping it will encourage others my age, or, any age. I don't have a "skimpy clad" photo to show but the only real difference is the muscle tone/growth so these will be part of my befores. I do have one at weight 142-145 I will put first.

    thanks Amy, this has lifted my spirits this morning, taking a few pics. When I reach my goal, I think I will be brave and show the horrrrrrrrrible bikini shot I took at first of Summer. It won't be so bad when I have a decent photo of me in the same suit:)

    hugs, denise:drinker: :drinker:

    Thanks Cris, I don't know my measurements when I had that bigger tummy but it had to be at least a couple inches I lost, :laugh:
