    Quitting drinking and smoking is a pretty huge victory in itself. Good for you. You look fantastic btw.

    That's it. Simple as that. Once you make up your mind just consider it done. I like that name crazie4lulu. What's it mean? Bikini or figure?

    I am! I'll be 40 this year and feel so fantastic! I actually still get carded occasionally. lol

    I also no longer drink (never was a heavy drinker, but mostly to do with my favourite drinks being 400+ calories each...not worth it to me) and I exercise daily.

    When I look at older photos, I look so much better and fitter now than I did 15-20 years ago. Crazy stuff!

    Me me me!

    I just turned 46 last week and I can honestly say I'm in the best shape of my life. I hit may goal weight mid-last year and have not really worried about weight since, other than to slowly add back muscle.

    I CrossFit 5-6 days a week and love it.

    I am turning 51 soon, and in very good shape, would like to lose a few lbs. This sit down job is killing me. But, overall I feel great.

    I think I am, or close to it. I am the same weight and I work out about as much as I did when I was 18 but I feel healthier and stronger and have a much healthier mindset now. And I've been maintaining a regular workout routine for about 7 years now which is way longer than I can say for when I was younger.

    Will be 55 this year, lost 110 pounds, and weigh less than I did when I graduated High School (1979). Tho I was a very good baseball player back then, and had a few college offers to play, I'd say I'm in better shape now, in spite of other health issues.

    I'm 45 and in better shape now than I've ever been--even did a half marathon in November for the first time. Friends wonder how I stick to it but feeling this good is addicting, why would I want to screw that up?
