    My brain is 25, my body is 44 but my back feels as if it is 75!!
    But I will keep plodding on with my goals in my heart.
    What is your exercise of choice???
    We can do is this!! 2016 has no idea what we can achieve together :)

    Insanity HITT workouts were the best cardio ever for me. Never made it through the second month but 6 times through the first month did the trick hahaha

    Hi there. This year I am loosing 45lbs for ever. Last year I was called fatso, obese, and told by girlfriend that my best feature was my face, and she was not attracted by my physic as I let my fitness go away for a while. Friends needed to keep me motivated and I will post pictures of any progress.

    Hello :) I had a rubbish 2015, after losing 3.5 stone in 2014, back problems stopped me exercising for 6 months, additional things occurring meant that I've piled 2 stone back on, but it feels like more. I've never felt so big and unhappy. So, here goes day 1 getting back to fitness in my 40's.

    I have used MFP with some success before! As with anything it works if you work it! Unfortunately I've been laid up with an injury and have been unable to do a lot of exercise... I am 45 and need to get back on track!
