I am. It will be 25 years in August. I hope you gave it a try and loved it :)

I'm a 25 year Jazzercise student! I love it with every beat of my heart, and can't imagine doing anything else :)

My first marriage ended after 18 years. It was very, very rough. I've been married to the love of my life now for 12+ years and plan on dying as his wife :)

Greetings! My name is Shana, I am about to turn 53 and live in a SE suburb of Denver, Colorado. It is snowing today, and cold. Ha. I am 5'9" and my ultimate goal would be to get back to 160 lbs. I lost 90 pounds back in the late 90s/early 00s, and it has steadily creeped back, due to a number of factors. I am realistically…

I am doing 20:4 intermittent fasting and my secret is drinking lots and lots and lots of sparkling water. I'm not sure if it's the bubbles or what, but it helps so much :)

Just checked them out - they look great. Thanks for the tip!

Oh!! Thank you for the tip - I had no idea. I will ask him when I see him on Thursday. I had no idea :)

Vodka. Every single day. Have lost 40 lbs :)

I also am an intermittent faster. I have coffee in the AM and my first meal at 1pm. Then I eat a fairly good dinner and snack between 6:30 - 7:30. Works well :)

Aaaahh..... I have my full boot from the last time that it was broken, so it is well supported. And I think it's the 5th metatarsal (again) and while it does HURT, it's not excruciating - it's just painful. I'm taking 3 naproxen daily, and hope like crazy that my orthopedist is open tomorrow (the day before the 4th of July…

Compassionate Kind Funny Thoughtful Not too terribly bad looking. LOL.

I've been reading the Shopaholic Series by Sophie Kinsella and IT IS HILARIOUS. Highly recommend. If you're a girl - I don't see men really loving it. Haha.

Rest, movies and grilling with the family.

I'm from all over the west coast of the US, and currently live in a suburb of Denver.

Okay. Swimming maybe then? Once it isn't so sore. My foot, that is.

I was thinking the same about strength training. I feel like I could also still do lower body stuff - just not with my left foot. You know?

Oh gosh - I appreciate the link so much - thank you!!!

This is just a tiny bit harsh, given that you don't know me. But I thank you for your concern and will take those concerns to heart. Thanks!

Hi there - you make some excellent points about bone density and diet, and I promise to seriously consider them. However, I had my annual exam last month and have no deficiencies in calcium or bone density, period. I see an excellent orthopedic surgeon (he is the Team Doc for our lovely Denver Broncos :) ), so yes - when I…

YES! Flip flops. I was indeed wearing them at the time. And I love them - I grew up in S California and they are just a way of life. However, this happening again has me rethinking.

LOLOL!!! My husband said the same. Ha.

I'm currently between "jobs" and living my dream career, which is being my husband's wife and my kids mom. Nothing better :)

I did 2 VERY intense, sweaty dance cardio workouts today (1 hour each). I was sopping wet at the end of each one and had to take a nap this afternoon between workouts BUT!! I did it and I feel GREAT :)

They will thank you forever!

I am one heartbeat away (okay, 7 weeks) away from turning 50. Egads. I'll be keeping up with this thread :)

Thank you, friend. It is very, very frustrating as the same thing keeps happening over and over. No answers yet, but serious diseases (MS) have been ruled out. Just waiting on the next thing...

Hi - it is very scary, and we are, thank you. She's had a spinal tap (no multiple sclerosis - thankfully!!), just an EMB today and is scheduled for a brain MRI later this week. Thank you for your support :)

^^^ Same.

Every time I've been is with my husband - nothing too crazy to report. I mean. A girl has got to have her secrets. ;)
