Went hiking in grove of old growth Redwood Trees yesterday.

Fall is my favorite season and I am ready for it to usher in a fresh start.

Thanks @UncleMac. My condolences on the loss of your daughter. I have begun working with a personal trainer and his advice is the same as yours - you can’t exercise your way out of a bad diet. I like exercise and it definitely is helping with my strength and balance, but I am trying very hard to focus on food - one healthy…

Hi all - I guess you could say I have “graduated” from the MFP 40s age group to this one. 😀 I am 53 and weigh 270 lbs. My mom died in June and I have been very sad and unmotivated resulting in a 5 lb. weight gain. I am working with a counselor and part of my total health recovery is my physical health. I have a lot of…

I'm a Packer fan and have been since I can remember. I was born in Milwaukee, WI, so I think there is a state and federal regulation stating I must be a Packer fan. :) The name of my Fantasy Football team is "The Packerderms!" I currently living in the Bay Area of California surrounded by 49er and Raiders fans. I do,…

I usually have 3 main meals and 2-3 snacks each day.

Hi Bpas - My doctor recommended "Eat to Live to me a couple of years ago. I did quite well on it and lost 50 lbs. Unfortunately, I did not maintain and gained that all back, plus some. I am back at it again eating veggies/fruits as the base of my diet, but do modify it because if I feel I "can't" have something it triggers…

I started RI30 on Saturday. I'm in Week 1 - I may do it longer than a week because it is kicking my butt (in a good way).

Hi there rvore - I just sent you a friend request. I'm 48 years old and have about 120 lbs. to lose. I log in daily and my diary is open for all to see.

Welcome to all the new ladies! I hope you all have a fabulous week!

Hi there - I will send you a friend request. I've lost 15 lbs. so far. It feels great, but I still have a long way to go. I am active on MFP and have an open diary.

Have you seen the cost of yellow paint these days?

The sound of someone brushing their teeth (which is weird because I can brush my teeth and not be bothered by the sound.)

Welcome, Mandy! :)

Did someone get caught?

Is the battery charged?

I have so many old school songs on my exercise playlist, but these are a few of my favorites: Gonna Make You Sweat - C & C Music Factory (it's 90s, but great for squats) Let it Whip - Dazz Band Addicted to Love - Robert Palmer I'm Alright - Kenny Loggins Brickhouse - The Commdores Black Cat - Janet Jackson It's Raining Men…

Cheers!

Do we have any books?

False - if I don't do it, someone else will put it on the wrong way! The next person has been skinny dipping.

You look wonderful! Congratulations!

I'm 47 and working very hard to become healthy. It's great to see so many of us in the same age group who can commiserate and offer support.

Because I want to free the healthy woman who is fighting to get out of this unhealthy body. I want to be strong and vibrant again.

Welcome! I logged in regularly about 2 years ago and lost over 50 lbs. I stopped logging in and gained it all back plus some, so I'm back to re-establish my healthy habits. This time, I'm becoming more involved in the community and finding it helpful. MFP is a great program and there's support available in every way…

I have over 100 lbs. to lose. If I didn't set smaller goals and celebrate those along the way, I'd become discouraged with the length of the process and give up. Those smaller goals keep me motivated.
