40+ Club : Where the Cool Kids Are

Just getting started - this looks like a great forum! Lots of encouragement and def in the 40+ club now. Looking at my first goal of 30 lbs and getting off of sugar completely. I work out 3-4 days/week but sit at my job all day Any encouragement/advice/clean eating on the go tips are appreciated!!!

What do you do when it's 95F with 110F heat index, but you have stuff that really needs doing in the garden? Make it rain. All of you guys with a weak stomach might look away now.

"Day: 67 of P90X/P90X+ hybrid Yoga X"=Done!

Bruges!

Iceland!

Good {Friday} Evening Cool Kids.

Nice pictures Beeps. Hope you are having a blast.

I've had a long sleepy day here at work. I had to come in at 1000 to set up, then wait around all day. It's a lockout for the annual free school supply event the Health Department holds. There will be about a thousand folks {mostly kids} come through tomorrow. {I will be wishing for a long quiet day}

Hope everyone has a good weekend,

Larro

The numbers for the week:

20.8% Body Fat
23.9 BMI
170.6 Pounds

That is a loss of 0.1 pounds.

Taken a much needed 2 weeks off from working out . Hit a plateau and was so over it from working out lol but as of Monday fresh vibes and recharged glad I stuck with eating healthy I lost 2 pounds! So guess I did a good thing enjoy your weekend everyone.

For various reasons I came to Philmont searching for some answers as to my purpose and role in scouting. My Eagle Scout is grown and gone. I needed to reaffirm that a place in scouting ministry was still my call. It may look different in the future but I am now convinced it still matters and I'm still supposed to be there.

It's been a good week.

Hiya - another 40+ here (actually closer to the five oh than the four oh, but I hear the 60 is the new 40...whatever that means). Dig the thread - in no small part to some of the great pics! Really like the Iceland pic above - beautiful shot. Also saw some great ones from Florida - larradarro...glad to see someone else can blow out a shirt as well as I can. That is some sweat and grime there! Love it. I guess I will have to start takin' some shots around central NC when I am out.

So, I guess with that little intro I am part of the club. I am part of the club now right? My profile will tell you more about me if you wanna know. The short version is husband, father, dog lover...trying to drop pounds and get back in shape to improve my softball game and even run a tri-sprint in the spring.

Today I slept late because the teens were at the movies till 1am. I don't sleep till they are home. Got a good workout in - treadmill, weights (chest-shoulder-arm day; my fave) and some time on the stationary. Took the wife for a ride in the jeep...topless of course (the jeep, not the wife). Made supper and getting ready to do some desk work.

Looking foward to more stories and pics from the cool kids.

Hi, i would like to join.

I'm 45, mother of 2 boys (1 adult, 1 teen). I would like to think that I'm pretty active but have always struggled to loose weight no matter how hard i work at it. My goal is to change my eating habits to that which is more healthy, become more fit, and become a little stronger than i am. I've been battling a thyroid condition and i think it keeps me plump no matter how active i am. I turned 45 in Feb. this year and 3 months later sciatica pain dropped in for a visit, long term. Drs tell me to limit my activity. If i do then i will blow up. For now I'm a walking fanatic. If anything its a stress reliever. Would like to jog or run but the pain is to great. Been with MVP for some time now. When I'm serous about it i do pretty good and loose a few lbs. It's time to get serous again. I'm looking forward to seeing everyones hard work and success. It will serve as my motivation. Have a great day everyone.

30m treadmill; ab/back on weights, 30m stationary bike.

90 minutes hitting baseball infield practice.

made the weekly menu, did the grocery shopping, getting ready to cook dinner.

Kids grumbling about doing some chores. ROFL. It seems I am a meaner. I can live with that as long as the house is clean.

Just came back from a wonderful week in Disney World....gotta get back to the program..scared to weigh in... gonna give it a few days first or I will just be depressed.

Good Morning all,

Had a great Sunday, a fun"play date with one of my bffs. We went Stand Up paddle boarding. I had been before, but my friend had not, so we took a lesson, which was extremely beneficial. Strong headwinds on the way back, so am feeling it in my shoulders today.

Hey, we have an "extreme heat warning" here today! Imagine that. We are expecting temps of 32C today.

Larro, how I would love to have some of those fresh garden cucs! I bought some from the farmers market and ate them all already! Have to wait until Friday for more. Your breakfast looks yummy!

More B&B guests tonight.

Welcome to all the new folks!

Salmon, brussel sprouts and roast cauliflower for dinner. Yum.

Steve, stop in over at "What's for Supper????" if you want to brag about it. It's always interesting to see what other folks are having.
