    Hello! I'm 54 and need to lose some of this gut while at the same time add some muscle. Up until my mid 30's I was one of those people that could eat anything she wanted and not gain an ounce. Well, between menopause and the cessation of a 30 year-old smoking habit, I really packed on some extra pounds. Even though I lost a lot of it, some of it is creeping back. I need a lifestyle change!

    Questions: How long did it take? What was your food regimen? What was your exercise routine?

    Congrats on achieving/maintaining!!!
