    Hello
    Spirit of 21, I'm feeling like 55 years old and I have 37. In 2014 lost 120 gained most. Came back to lose again 3 digits. I hate those numbers xD

    Please add me! I’m in my late thirties. I’ve lost 60 lbs each time after two babies. In 2016 I got super fit by stroller running up hills with my two toddlers (above picture in 2016). After they kept growing and the weight I was pushing was 130 lbs (with double stroller) got injured pretty dang bad. Injuries lasted a year plus but I kept trying to maintain. I just couldn’t lift or run heavily with out shooting pain. I gained about 15-20 lbs but worse I lost all that lean muscle.

    I’ve tried this whole time to get it back, ran half marathon, winter 8 mile trail runs, lifting like crazy but can’t seem to reach that peak level of super lean mean, not to mention still having pain but that’s no biggy I’ll manage through that.

    I’ve never liked keeping track of food (I get too obsessed) but I think I’m gonna have to in order to reach this goal. I need a lot of support cause’ I’m going low carbs and counting calories plus running long once a week, weight training early morning and doing cardio in afternoon 5-6 days per week.

    Sorry for huge picture 😂

    I always recommend to everyone who will listen- please read Dr. William Davis’ books- especially Undoctored. Or listen to his blogs or blogs featuring him. This way of thinking has transformed my life and so so many others. Plus, once you stops eating grains you would be surprised what you do not crave anymore. Also, what do you have to lose? Wishing you the most success however you go about it!

    Turned 50 in July 2018. Looking for some new friends that log in daily and can provide some encouragement. I was working out 6 days a week till I injured my knee in August, so that side-lined me a bit. I put on 20 lbs because I reverted back to old eating habits. I'm really trying to hit my reset button and get back on track. Feel free to add me as a friend!

    Time change ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

    I'm not looking forward to tomorrow morning. Trying to stay positive about it though. But at this point, I'm just positive that I'm not going to be happy. Ha ha. :D

    I hope everyone had a great weekend! <3

    This is going to be me all week. Good morning everyone. I hope Monday is good to ya.

    We don't do this where I live. But one person's cellphone was on an incorrect setting and thought it should change. He didn't wake up when the rest of us did. Major confusion!!

    On it!

    Had to kill traffic first to actually make it to the gym.
    All done and dusted now.

    Good morning y'all!
