I started running at 59 in an Oct. 2011 5k, I walked parts of it off and on don't remember what I finished at BUT I caught the bug. I had never run before worked out off an on yes..but run NEVER. I signed up for a 5k a month series and within a couple weeks by the next month I won my age category. The BUG got worse my 60…

I do weights that have cardio intervals it will make you sweat and keep you heart pounding,I use 8 to 15 lb dumb bells and have fantastic deffenition. Check out UTube on Kelly Coffey Meyer 30 min series,I usually double them up ( they have lots of options on DVDs) and I also run.

I will qualify by saying did not read everyones posts! First place they are jealous and it makes them have to confront how they are eating or other excesses in their lives... You might remind them it is the workplace ,it is harassement,and they are creating a HOSTILE work environment ...and people do get sued for it and…

5'5" ,127...size 4 to 6 depends on what they are some 4s are big??

We are already friends I usually run 3 to 4 days a week run any where from 3.2 to 10 miles. I run only on dirt or trail to save on my joints I started l a year ago last Oct on a 5k run that I walked part of this last oct I ran a half marathon. I am going on 61 this next month and I weighed 27 lbs more when I started

Yes except she is 18 and I am a young 60 I am below goal and she wants to lose 21 pounds

I usually don't eat before I run either sometimes a piece of fruit or oatmeal if I do and I run any where from 3 to 10 miles.

Made it on April 5 yeah!

Did not have time to read everyone's responses but.....sounds like you are unhappy enough about yourself....you do not have much free time to exercise let alone cook tasty options to eat and take with you to work. Honey take care of you! As for the rest I have been with my sweet honey through fat and thin and back…

Height: 5'5" Age/Gender 60/F Highest: 174 {not even pregnat} Current; 132 Lowest: 6lbs 13oz 124 {3yrs ago then gained 35lbs} Goal weight; 131 But I would say I am there fit and happy sad it took till 60 to get body I wanted at 20!!!!!

Your diary is not public

Well now for "the not you granny's" point of view. I turn 61 in a couple months and am physically SO much hotter looking than I was in my 20 ,I have tons of energy,weigh 30 pounds less,I never had flat abs till the last few years. And hated exercise. As for the biggest changes each decade you get to eat less....get less…

I like Kelly CoffeyMeyer she has a bunch of 30 min Fitness DVDs each one has 2 workouts plus a bunch of premixes you can rent her from Netflicks as well as a ton more DVDs. But you can preview all of Kelly's on Collage video just google it. You can preview all kinds of stuff and the have sales ect ship fast!

Youngins I am going on 61 feel early 40's.....weighed 174 when I was 56, I am fighting the battle and for the most part winning,you can friend me if you would like. I run and do weights ,work out to DVDs .Eat good.Changed my lifestyle and lost 20 yrs.

Not sure but I am what I would say is a small med build I weighed 174, I am 5'5" and now weigh 134. I am almost 61. I use to think my set weight was 150 , but worked through it...worked my butt off now I am very muscular ( never thought possible) start working out at 56. I at one time was down to 125 to thin. 131 is when I…

True true my friend but you did not stay the same to get where you are today...if you read the other 2 posts I wrote I am the OP you would see I know it's THE way I live now...

It is amazing what we gain when we give up .....perhaps that was a poor choice of word..choose to no longer eat,do,ect. I have gained a much happier self!

Not hardly...I am the OP .....my reason for the question? I am sick of people that want change and are willing to do nothing to get it long term....and can not believe that you do and can.

That's what my female doctor said to me she is 25 yrs younger and is overweight, I think the wrist thing works well for you frame size and pick a weight in the range for age height and frame. I am 5'5" and feel best at around 130 I am 60 and my high weight was 174.

I did not see how tall you are? Durango makes a lot of very good points. I myself have been now close to goal only losing 1 pound a month...and I am holistic about eating tracking and daily exercising if anything I need to up my calories could that be your problem?

Two words. DO NOTS.......

I love that I am strong and fit..and I have great hair.and I am sculpturing the rest to be to be pretty darn great too!

Working out is like playtime time the only disadvantage to being older (60) is your body doesn't need many calorie just to exist...hense more exercise.......but think I had more trouble in my 20 's I sure the heck have the best body of my life!!!!!

I turn 61 in May....did not even start exercising till I was 56.....I do it all P 90X ,Insanity....Zumba turbo fire...Kickboxing....I run 6 miles at least 3 times a week.And have run 1/2 marathons this year....so here's for being inappropriate. P.S friend me any one that in my age category like minded.

I am almost 61.I started running at 59 and love it,and yes so much easier lighter! Keep up the great work I know I have shocked myself in my abilities. I have run a half marathon,and regularly run 6 miles several times a week. Until age 56 I was a couch potato and weighed 40 lbs more than now!

Nothin

I got to goal a couple years ago went from a 12 to 4/6'got rid of everything!!!!!!Wish I would of saved a pair of big pants....Anyways I gained 25 lbs over two years could only squeeze into clothes for awhile. Then as stated before.......SHAME shopping went up to size 8 only bought a few things at thrift stores to get me…
