  • Happy Friday everyone! Lis, thanks for the in depth info about calorie intake. I need to brush up on all my education. Your information is so good and will help a lot! I did a 45 minute walk/jog then did a 30 minute les mills pump video. I've been out in the garden and will be heading back there in a bit. I am so grateful…
  • Happy Monday all. I got to be a chaperone for one of my grand daughters today. Zoo trip. Lots of fun, lots of walking and pretty hot. On protein powders. I have tried a ton of them. I have severe food allergies and have to be ultra careful. Right now I am using MRM Vanilla Whey protein. I haven't had any reactions with…
  • Just got back from my final post op appointment and have been given the go ahead for lifting and cardio. I am really looking forward to getting my body back in shape! Today is a 45 minute walk and a 35 minute les mills pump video, as well as planting part of my veggie garden. I hope we had our last freeze with the snow we…
  • Hi ladies! I am 51 and 9 weeks out of hysterectomy surgery. They left 1 ovary but things are changing fast! I am a personal trainer and body worker. I have 5 kids, 9 grand kids and have been married 32 years. There is nothing like being with lots of people who are focused on finding answers. I am really looking forward to…
  • Heading over to the group Menopause - Taking action
  • Do you know what vacuums are? Google abdominal vacuums. It is a great exercise to develop your transverse abdominus muslce which is basically your natural girdle. I am 50. Will never weigh under 130 or probably even under 140, but my waist is 30" right now and will get down to about 27/28 by the time I weigh about 140-145.…
  • WONDERFUL! What a great inspiration! Weight Watchers can be great help, but you did the work. AMAZING!
  • Champion has a fantastic bra that is under wire and is double material. I get mine at Sports Authority. LOVE THEM!
  • I workout at home most of the time. I work out of a gym but I still like to workout at home. We have had WARM weather here on the eastern slope in Colorado. We need some of that cold and wet weather!!
  • Welcome Marcus! Feel free to add me if you like. I am a personal trainer and coach who is struggling with keeping weight off. I need accountability and support and love to do the same for others. I'm 50, married for 31 years, have 5 kids and 8 grand kids. I am a national competitor in a sport called hydrofoiling and I love…
  • How long have you and hubby been married?
  • Way to go! You can do this!
  • I just turned 50 in December. I'm kind of excited about it. I am a trainer and coach who really needs accountability myself. Weight loss post 40 is a chore, at least has been for me. I am looking for accountability for certain!
  • Just a little FYI. muscle and fat weigh the same. A pound is a pound is a pound; however, the mass is different. muscle is about 1/3 the size of fat. One really cool thing is, the more muscle you have, the more calories you are burning. I have the same problem with weight gain when I first start my workouts so I increase…
  • Goal for December: 153 scale weight. That will be 4 pounds down for the month. How I will do that: Keep my food diary every day, drink at least 96 ounces of water each day, workout 6 days each week, seek support as needed, encourage at least 2 people each day.
  • Thank you very much! I appreciate the welcome and certainly know that dropping the last 20 will be a challenge but one I am definitely up for! :happy:
  • It depends on your fitness level and if you like dance moves. Turbo Fire goes super fast. Insanity sends me to the brink of throwing up. hehehe They are both good. Have you looked at Chalene Extreme?
