brightresolve... what a cool name! I just lost over 20 too! I’m done with yo-yo at 60...lol. But feel really good and can do all I could at a much younger age!

Hi PatMae... water weight to me does count! It come off us and doesn’t return while eating healthy.

Hello thecat... how is it going for you?

I added some heavier dumb bells (8lbs) to my Gunnar Peterson’s “give me 20” ball and weight workout...omgoodness, my belly is sore! Only going to use this in 1-2 times per week.

I’m so sorry for your loss, I did not know her but appreciate your heartfelt post. Please share your thoughts of Bobbie if you care to.

I love cheese too but have been cutting down in a very serious way lately, although I picked up a little habit of enjoying semi sweet chocolate chips...yum...1T = 79 calories...ok...but 4T a night? I guess that luxurious sweet melting chocolate in my mouth was too addictive and I couldn’t stop at 1T, so the big commercial…

Awesome Picture! Hooray for new days! It’s been cold here (for us) but I’m enjoying it, a shame for visitors from colder places wanting some hot summer like fun!

Hi Everyone... I started with ww freestyle and loved the freedom and did lose weight, after a bit though I transitioned to mfp because I felt the variety of food was not there with freestyle and the opportunity to completely over eat the zero point foods was too great. I am using what I learned there to help me with some…

Hello... I have been exceeding my step goals...woohoo! Scale has slowed...but I started with the dumbbells so I think that could factor in. That’s a remarkable amount of lifetime steps, Retirehappy! Kathy, wow that’s a lot of snow, hope your ankle improves, you are smart to take it slow with recovery in hopes of being up…

Thank you Mxchana...hope your March is going well also.

Hi there! Retirehappy...6000 plus steps a day is remarkable, while working at my last job I had trouble getting 5000, most days were 3k. Pat yourself on the back.

I have just recently started to like being 60...I can’t believe I’m saying that...lol...I’m healthy and strong and still excited about learning new things!

Yay! Made my goal today!

It’s so nice that you can have that experience with the eagles and their chicks...I do miss seasons for sure...now my home is in Key West so we have different more subtle spring experiences...but my orchids are starting to bloom and usually by Mother’s Day nature gives me quite a show. I am so grateful that these survived…

Good Evening Retirehappy, thanks for the YouTube tip...I’ll take a look for certain. Poor weather conditions can certainly put a crimp in the best of exercise intentions. Today, I only made it to 5461 with the steps but I did manage to cycle for 33 minutes...to and from work...so feeling ok with that...

Hi! I’ve just joined your group and I’ve been working on 10000 steps a day too...big jump for me...I was only getting almost 5000 for the longest time but hitting the 10000 mark really helped my weight loss, I also would really like to get in 20 minutes of light weight training 2x per week so I think that will be my March…

Hello Everyone...I turned 60 last August and am getting back into shape also...would like to be part of this group...

Hi Everyone, I have been using Green Smoothies for a couple weeks now and have been feeling great. I make them in my Vita-mix, have asked friends who are successful in losing weight and keeping it off what ingredients they used in their smoothies and here is what they recommend: Kelp...lots Coconut Water Chia Seeds any…

Wow janellevaught this recipe sounds great, I will try it! I have been making my green smoothies each morning, I got the smaller wet container so I would not make them so large and clean up is easier for me. I love the recipes in the Whole Foods book that came with the unit, I have been trying out the soups and sauces and…

I went another 6 miles today...Yay!

I am doing interval run walk on the treadmill.

I'm a late starter but I am going to give it a try. :smile:

4.5 miles. Great start to my day.

Up early with high energy today, 5.2 miles!

I've been pushing too hard, took a rest for a couple days and back at it today, felt great...3.1 miles.. high energy!

Good Morning! Felt a little sluggish today so I decreased time/distance this a.m....total of 3 miles in 52 minutes. Looking forward to picking up some distance this evening.

Hello CRody44... It is time consuming, but I have been trying do two intervals, one before work and another after. I use a treadmill and mostly walk but have short intervals of running :grumble: Today I was able to get in a total of 7.2 miles in two hours total time. I like to walk at 3.5 pace, at least you are doing…
