Did the Bright Line Eating program pretty religiously through December. No exercise on that plan, but it WORKED! I needed to exercise though because my body actually hurt and the sagging skin, etc. Started working out and tracking on MFP only 4 weeks ago, but it's working for me. I didn't take measurements 4 weeks ago and I should have. Dealing with gaining weight/muscle despite tracking food and exercise for a month...still an overall loss of 7 pounds, but those weeks you gain freak you out. Anyway, I am a different person. I haven't been "athletic" in years. I haven't had a date in years. ALL of that is changing. I actually RUN now for fun and exercise. Never did before because I never could. My body is healing in amazing ways. My 55 yr old beleaguered body is coming back. Joints are healing. I'm getting tougher all around. Starting martial arts training on Thursday because I NEVER want to stop moving my body ever again. I can't get enough. I hated myself for so long and I feel like I just let myself out of jail.

    Congrats on your results ... I'm on a similar journey, 60 years young and lost 15 lbs. over several weeks. Doing cardio and weight training and like you, the old body is slowly coming back. People are starting to take notice. Keep it going strong, I know I will...
