Hi - I am hitting the big 5-0 this year (December) and thought I better get my butt in gear and lose some weight. Even though it sounds gimmicky, I thought the 50 by 50 thing is cool. The thing is that I think I know I have lost weight but I can't see a difference. So it's frustrating. Plus I think my ultimate goal is 80 instead of 50. So does anybody else get frustrated & what about the goal thing, have I undersold myself? I'm just frustrated but plugging along. Thoughts?

    Jimmy -
    Don't get frustrated it is hard. First my suggestion is measure. I am sure you have lost inches and sometimes it is hard to see it when looking in the mirror but you can tell by the way your pants fit and your trainer or I can measure you monthly to help you track the progress. Let me know when you want to be measured and you can walk on down to the house. Don't be discouraged. As far as your goal I Know you can do it.
