Hi! I am 43 and just restarting a healthy lifestyle after MANY embarrassing years away. I am very out of shape, but because I gain weight evenly and I'm tall, I've been able to 'fake' being in better shape than I am. NO MORE. I want to lose 30 lbs. I am cutting out bread and pasta and as much sugar as possible, as I have more energy and lose weight quickly when I drop flour and wheat. Not trying to be perfect, since historically that sets me up for failure, and I don't want to deprive myself to the degree that I overeat with resentment. I also like my glass of wine in the evenings!

I am starting off with Zumba classes (holy crap, was that hard!) and will add some yoga for strength and flexibility. I want to build myself up to Cross Fit as I am very interested in it! I hate squats and lunges, but I need those so plan to do those at home.

I don't know how to add friends yet, but I will try to add you, if it's ok.

Sounds like your on the right track ! I lose weight so much faster cutting out all white starch - I hold my weight pretty well, when I tell people how much I weigh they always say noway! But I think they are just being nice LOL! Im excited for this journey, I want my life back. AND yes I want to be in a bikini someday and I will. Well the wine thing, that my biggest obstacle. But we can do it!!!!
