hello - i'm 57 and have major health things going on. i'm 5'7 and 132 so you'd never know i'm as unfit as i am
without giving lots of personal details, i've decided just because i lost 20 lbs and feel *good* in my *look in the mirror*skin, i need to get into a weight and resistance training workout realm again. i'm very weak physically because of the health restrictions i've got, but i've just this week got a personal trainer now who knows my *stuff* and is really understanding of my needs and fears, and very encouraging and positive. i'm determined to be STRONG, not just look *nice* in clothes... - thanks for reading ..

Good luck

Hope y'all are having an awesome day! Fall is in the air here in Idaho. YAY! My favorite season!

Hello all , will be 50 in a few days and I know what the struggles are and willing to help motivate ,please add me .
Ciao for now .

So excited! Fresh figs from the garden...first time the fig tree actual produced! Yumm

Any of you can add me if you want I'm 56 married retired and aim to lose weight despite aching joints .

Well I guess Ill round out the top of the group, for the short while in here Haha. Ill turn the big 60 in January. I started working out beginning of this year then lots of bad things happened in our world, starting in March so it has taken me until now to get back into it. As the story goes once you stop working out, you gain weight and lose your tone. True again. Started back Monday after a weeks vacation and looking to drop 15 lbs or so and just tone it up. Ill weigh once a week, this week already down two pounds, by running a calorie deficit on top of 45 min daily workout. I did do 3 broken up weeks of p90x, so I skipped week 4 recovery ( I walked everyday while away) and went away, this week began week 5. I do feel it. I've done a couple rounds of BB in the past, having the program for 10 years and for me, I was in the best shape doing it. So back to it again. I want my body back for my bday. thats my present to me. Good luck to everyone here as well. If I can do it so can you!

Hi - I would love to join the group - I'm 52, 5ft 7, we are in kg over here so I am 75.5 kg (166.5 pounds). I have literally tried everything to lose weight. I have a stressful job and sweet tooth, so at the end of a tough day I often eat sweets in the car on the way home and snack when I get home to wind down. It's a bad habit and just seem to slip into it each day. Hoping I can connect with you all to get some support and slowly loose these extra pounds. My first goal is to get to 72kg (158.7 pounds). That is the very top of my healthy weight range for my height.
Love to hear how others are succeeding - Sarah

Try packing some healthy snacks in the car and at home. I keep jerky, nuts and string cheese in the cooler in the car. There are plenty of other healthy snack options, too. Fruit and veggies, etc.

Are you keeping a food diary? Start with that. After a couple of weeks, you can figure out where you could make substitutions.

Do you have a food scale? Lots of folks (including me) find it helpful to weigh their food in order to get a more accurate calorie count.

Hi everyone, my name is Tony. I'm back and I need this, and ya'll. I'm tired of the roller coaster weight ride.
Please feel free to friend me. I love to be motivated and to encourage others along the way.
