Fit & Full & 50
I am a fit & full 50-year-old, and so glad to find this group. Thank you Jonette for starting! Are there any other 50+ ladies like me? I am 5'7'", very curvy - and don't think I will ever be thin (although I once was, back in my 20's). I would love to hear from other 'mature' curvy ladies like me. How do you stay strong?…
What's your absolute favorite workout?!
I must say...ever since I discovered the stairclimber...it's all I think about. I'm addicted. I HATE cardio and have a treadmill phobia (yeah I'm being dramatic)...I just really dislike getting on that thing. Plus I had a guy tell me one time (he had been watching me at the gym over the course of a few days I guess -…
No Muffin Top!
We curvy girls love the bodies we have, we just want to modify a few things to ENHANCE our already sexy physiques.

A new study investigated the effect of abdominal exercises on abdominal fat. Twenty-four healthy, sedentary participants were randomly assigned either to an…
Cosmetic procedures
At some point or another most of us have wished for a magical pill, surgery, or food to make us "perfect". So I was wondering, if there was any procedure you could get done (invasive or not and cost not a factor) to make your body idea in some way... what would it be? I had an old Army buddy of mine who stated she wanted…
Got Sweet Meat?
Sweet Meat (as my 9 y/o son fondly calls it) also known as "bat wings" is the juicy layer under your arms that keeps your triceps warm :tongue: I'm obsessed with Michelle Obamas arms, so I looked tirelessly online (okay maybe 15m) to find an exercise that would tackle this fluffy (and stubborn) area **gym membership not…
Welcome to Living Fit and Full
I just wanted to take the time to welcome everyone to "Fit and Full"! A little bit about WHY I designed this group... As I engaged in a few MFP discussions I noticed a trend, more specifically an absence, in the message boards... and "society" in general. We have become so obsessed with losing pounds and gaining wealth, we…
