    Will be 49 in January .... metabolism is dead. Hormones are gone and the intertube just gets bigger. It is depressing. And I LOVE to eat. I have to do this!!

    No! No! It is not dead! Fight back! And yes, you can do it!! Strength train, natural hormone supplements if you are into that. Increase your lean body mass and you will increase the number of cals you burn just sitting around. What can be better than that? :drinker:

    Oh - and I will be 49 in 9 days. :frown:

    The 50s are great!! I've gotten fit and gone to grad school! I've learned to dance and do zumba! I'm eating healthier (and better) than ever! I never could do push ups until I was in my fifties! And my gray hair is pretty! :drinker:

    Welcome to a wonderful world.

    I seriously :heart: you...
