I love cross trainer as I killed my heel a few years ago doing too much running. Cross trainer is much better for me. But for training specific muscle groups I found I need specific exercises. If I do just cross trainer for a longer period of time, my body gets used to it and I stopped having any weight loss. It started…

Body By Simone. I bought her streaming DVDs. Her body tone ones are awesome.

Awesome job! The weight makes you 20 years younger and looking fabulous!

You look gorgeous. So inspiring progress!

Beer and alcohol are hard bits. For me, they always slow down my progress. Within 2 weeks I suggest to cut down at least a few nights. Also make sure you count properly all the other calories and weigh food. Sometimes I don't and I underestimate the weight of what I am eating.

Fantastic result and very inspiring!

Tosca Reno if we ca call her celebrity :)

Amazing!

Awesome and very inspirational!

I feel exactly the same. I now became plateued and have to start pushing myself to lose more by cutting on wine

You look great and look beautiful.

Lots of black and white for work Going out - blue and red This spring - having a new passion for bright yellow :)

I was very hesitant to open mine originally. But now I feel more accountable having it open. I have never had a bad experience of people judging what I eat or don't eat yet.

Fantastic progress. Congrats!

My big fitness idol is Tosca Reno. She is 53 and she looks amazing, trains hard and eats clean. She keeps winning fitness competitions. I am 45 and I wish I looked half that :) I definitely start to feel that my body and my joints ache more than they did ten years ago but I want to push as hard as I can.

I used to think that walk is for babies and old people. I used to be a runner and I did not believe in anything slower than running. But I developed plantar fasciitis and a spur and it was the end of my running and any high impact cardio. Recently I bought a Fitbit and I am trying to walk at least 15 thousand steps a day…

Amazing transformation Marcella. Thanks for sharing, it is so inspiring!

It may not be a plateau if you are still losing weight. Have you changed to Tabata HIIT recently? After you start a new exercise programme and the muscles are sore, the body protects the tissue by fluid retention. This temporary retention of fluid can result in a 3- to 4-pound weight gain within a few weeks of a new…

Great progress! The speed does not matter but the results do and you did an awesome job.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate all your views.

I've just ordered Sunwarrior vegan protein to increase my levels. Let see how it goes. It has good reviews.

I have always exercised for an hour a day but other than that, I was very sedentary. A month ago I got my Fitbit and it is worse than a dog :) I like competing with my Fitbit friends, so abandoned lifts, car and going for long walks in addition to my exercise.

I am 45 so not far from you and definitely, it is much harder to lose weight. I remember when I was younger, I could easily lose 2 pounds a week. I am on my week 5 now and only lost 6 pounds. It is on the right track but I wish it was faster :) I also have to control my food much more and reduce carbs significantly in…

What really helps me is the HRM. I follow my heart rate and increasing and decreasing intensity to achieve the effect of interval training. Sometimes I go at steady pace but always try to keep my HRM above 160 beats.

I love your progress and thanks for motivation and sharing! I am going to google now what crossfit is :)

I did start lifting and going as heavy as I can but it should be a meal replacement anyway in order to stay within my calories goal, shouldn't it? I am combining lifting with cardio and really want to go down on fat. Thanks for advice.

Thanks for sharing. I have his book ready to read. The truth is that reducing carbs from my diet definitely works for me in losing weight.
