I too am 43 almost 44 and am peri-menopausal! It's been a HUGE struggle losing weight through this which the dr claims is because of the hormones. I have lost about 30 lbs on here and 20 on my own before that. Of course now I've been stuck for a while but dr says keep plugging away and eventually my body will catch up. I…

Hmmm interesting. I get the ll the take supplements and eat plenty of fruit & veggies and also I drink between 10-14 glasses of water daily so I guess it MUST be menopause???!!! They suck I know that!!!! It hurts really badly!

Unfotunately I have the opposite problem...mine seem to come off last. I am like the lady who talked about being a cartoon character. They are the first thing you see on me and I hate it. Wish I would lose them in porportion to the rest on my body. Happened the only other time I had to lose weight as well. :(

You are an inspiration to so many and thank you for overcoming your fear and posting. You look absolutely AMAZING!!!! Fantastic job!!

My husband and I BOTH have a special tattoo with each other's names on it. He picked one out and I designed my own. I also have a whole back piece with all my children's names hidden in it. My husband has tattoo's of the grandkids names on him. So my thought is everyone has to decide if tattooing is for them and a name is…

OMG THANK YOU SOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!! I needed this now more than ever!!! I have been so discouraged. My husband and everybody keeps telling me they see the difference and I have gone down in clothes sizes and I follow the program and workout like crazy!!!
