How about "Not Your Daughter's Jeans" (NYDJ) - I found they are "forgiving' and can look good - I know I've seen them when I visit the States...just not sure exactly where.

Hi I'm Gina...originally the kid who couldn't finish her high school long runs in gym class...then just before my 40th picked up running, lost some weight, and ran a couple of 5kms! Got off track for a few years...but as my 50th is next year...I'm getting back on it! I've been on the treadmill for now (kinda cold in…

I was that kid in high school gym class who could barely complete our long-distance runs...and around my 40th picked it up and ran 2x 5kms and 2 x 10km runs...I then stopped for a few years...not sure why...but I've slowly picked it up again (I'm 49 this year). My running goals: 10Km on…

Ahhhh. Every. Little. Bite.…

I had lost about 35 lbs 8 years ago...and then it slowly came back on. I started again to support my hubby...and then realized I needed to do it for…
