    Man this is fantastic progress!

    Thanks Brother... Definitely some hard work, but, consistency is the real key.

    gave up my run to attend a one hour"core confidence' class that was marked as "intermediate Medium Impact Class". Well! It was an hour of lecture and practicing our breathing to strengthen our pelvic muscles. Ugh! What a waste of my workout time! :angry:

    Good grief, sdereski....I feel ya! Of course, I would have left because exercise time is SO VERY PRECIOUS!

    djproulx - I am glad you have some time.

    I am changing up my workouts (again!). I think I was doing too much cardio over the winter and my appetite totally increased and I basically ate TOO MUCH FOOD. So, back to lifting heavy 3 x per week and only 1 x cardio per week.

    Less hunger. Less food. Trim down. Yay!

    22 minute hard corps cold start & Brute Force Operator Series Alpha 18! 60/38. 187 reps. A few less...with heavier bag and little quicker time. Static holds are feeling stronger. Maybe my baby hands and skinny wrists are toughening up.
    Gonna slow this next week down a bit. Next Saturday is my first Spartan of the season...and it’s a BEAST! 😳

    I am a bit sore, today. I am “on-track” with my exercise regimen (more heavy weights, less cardio) and I am getting better at cutting back food portions. I weigh tomorrow and we shall see how week 1 went!

    No lifting yesterday, but I did get almost 18K steps and I disassembled one bed and assemble it's replacement. New bed after 20+ years, totally magical!

    Tons of lifting yesterday for me... today is a lighter day... probably some body weight exercises.

    I'm waaay over 40 (57 and counting), but happy to have found this group. I have lost 6 lbs. since my last check-in on MFP, and joined a gym. I try to eat healthy, unprocessed foods whenever possible, but I have a sweet tooth that gets in the way. My goal is to lose another 60 lbs. Anyone have any experience using ACV before meals? I would like to hear if it works, as the idea of drinking it, even diluted in a glass of water, is not that appealing to me. However, I am willing to try just about anything to reach my weight loss goals. Menopause kicked my butt! I barely recognize myself. Most of my excess weight settled around my middle and I hate it. Any advice would be welcome!
