Hi I’m 42 going on 33. Hoping to look as young as I feel & act by living a healthier lifestyle.0

My plans for Thanksgiving include going to my cousin's house. I'm bringing wine and a low-carb app. I plan to drink wine and eat in moderation (not leave feeling stuffed lol). Friday I'm dropping my daughter off with her dad and going to the casino with my sister. Saturday spending the day/night with my boyfriend. Pretty lowkey weekend. Will be missing my college-age daughter this year, but I'll see her at Christmas!2

58 New here any tips for exercise with low back pain?
Have you asked your doctor or physical therapist what you can do? Please start there.
If allowable - try some stretching exercises with resistance bands - easy to do at home. After that - kettlebell exercises (particularly swings) will strengthen your lower back. Deadlifts with a kettlebell or barbell if you are able.
I'm 63 - I lift weights two or three times a week. Can't remember the last time I had any back pain. It really helped me.

Patrick - you might want to also pose this question in the Goal:Gaining Weight and Body Building forum and the Fitness and Exercise forum. There are experienced people there who might be able to answer your question.

Hey guys!
I'm Ben, 35, from Montreal, Canada. My mother tongue is French, but English is perfectly fine. I'm a self-employed translator, so I work from home
I'm into soccer, cardio/running and weights. I'm a proud father of three children (9, 6 and 1.5) so I'm fairly busy with them, trying to balance family time, workout time and relaxing time.
Also, my current streak is at 1500+ days, so you can be sure I won't disappear after a week I like to share the motivation and chat a little every now and then

58 here from Hoodsport WA. Juse joined up. Lost 51 lbs so far on the Ideal Protein Protocol. Phasing out now. Looking to maintain and tone up.0 -
Did great over Thanksgiving even after a discouraging find.
I scanned in my smoked ham I was cooking and found out it had 2 grams of carbs per 2 oz.
No glaze, no spiral cut, just plain smoked ham. Just had to cut back on serving size and make it fit my macros.
First Thanksgiving where I lost weight, no much but still was down.4 -

Well done! That is great going.0 -
Hi, I turned 40 last year. While I'm in pretty decent health I want to be fit and sassy into my 40s. Looking for motivation partners who will encourage a person like me who went from exercise junkie (i.e.softball, running 5 K's, etc) to dreading exercise.1
