My goal is to get down to 115 by the end of the summer and also get into a daily exercise routine. That's about 20 lbs more but nothing drastic. (I am only 5"1.5") Would like to hike the entire White Mountains Presidential Trail. Last year I did half of it. Also, would like to do some group bike rides.

I've started doing some of these short slower moving workouts (which help stretch, get metabolism up, and build strength). 15 Min Senior Workout - HASfit Exercise for Elderly - Seniors Exercises for Elderly - Seniors

Congratulations! You look terrific. You said you go to the gym and workout when you are stressed instead of eat. I will keep that in mind.

You are an incredible inspiration. I think what you did in 3 years is truly remarkable. Congratulations. You must feel great. I feel great when I take good care of myself and am strong. I wish I could shake your hand.

Definitely, would like to join this club. Born in 1960. In my other intro, I indicated that I am thinking of this as a New Chapter: one that includes self-care. A novel concept for me. I am feeling energized. Have been swimming and attending spinning classes at the gym (Wow, that's work out!) and tracking on MFP and I have…
