Hi Ladies! My name is Stacie...I'm 49 years old and live in the burbs north of Atlanta. I am a recent transplant from California. I am married with no kiddies but LOVE being an Auntie to my 8 neices and nephews and their 4 adorable children. I am a huge dog lover and we have 3 rescues. I spent most of my life being a yo-yo…

I will add you! :)

Welcome! I will add you. We are all in the same boat. I am thankful that things have subsided for me now that I found what works for me. Breaking out into a sweat was getting embarrassing! :) quote I am 47 and in the same boat. It's hard to accept that I was once underweight and could still eat anything I wanted. Now the…

I am 48 and totally feel the same way. In your 40's you have different challenges concerning weight, menopause and what you can and shouldn't eat. I would love the support. I only recently found a way to get on track and am now trying to stay there. Feel free to friend me. Let's share experiences and help each other! I…

Hi!, I'm so happy to see this group! I am turning 49 and have been on a fitness journey for the last few years. Although, I only recently got on track and am FINALLY seeing good results. I look forward to chatting with all of you! Stacie

Uh oh. Here are my stats for today: Daily Goal: 1300 Food: 1133 Exercise: - 463 Net: 670 Extra calories earned: 630 I have not been eating back exercise calories and the net number is usually around between 600-900. Does this basically mean that I have thrown my body into starvation mode? I'm petite, 5'3" and only have…

That's fantastic! Congratulations! I start my last week on Monday and plan to start again. Am planning on kicking up the cardio a bit as well. I even think my cellulite has been reduced a lot. What a great workout!

I feel that way about squats...but they really work. I put on shorts today for the first time in years! How long have you been doing LMP?

Hi Victoria! Welcome to the group. Did you like the workout? If you need extra motivation, I have a private Facebook group starting on April 2. The purpose is to give support and keep you going daily. Let me know if you want in. We will be happy to have you!

Same here. I also drink Energy and Endurance about 30 minutes before my workouts. REALLY helps! :happy:

I am relieved to hear that my weight isn't the only one to go up! I can see I've lost inches but the scale simply has gone up a few pounds. I'm now trying not to weigh!

Beachbody teamed with Les Mills and made a series of DVDs of the different workouts. The one I got came with the barbell + varying weights, a step bench, Combat, Sports Attack, step workout, Flow (yoga) and 2 ab workouts. I done many Beachbody workouts, but this one with Les Mills is the first where I SEE amazing results.…

Hi!

I have a balance issue, so lunges have been a challenge. I have had to reduce the weight, so I don't lean over and lose form. BUt, I can feel myslef getting stronger, so all upside, right? :)

Welcome! I'm doing Beachbody's home version. It's a 13 week program and came with all the weights, DVD's and a nutrition program. Am loving it and getting great results. I've been working out off and on for several years but this is the first program where I can see the results. Yay! By week 6, I was down 5 " and wondering…

My secret goal is to be able to wear a fitted dress (without bulges!) to my 30th high school class reunion in August:

Feel free to add me. I welcome accountability and give support!

I had a great experience. I am "older" and found that eHarmony worked for me. I met met my husband on there the day after I joined. So, yes it was a great experience for me! :heart: any dating site can be a bad experience...just like going to a bar. But, at least most of the details are laid out for you before the first…

Thank you!!!:happy:

Hi What is the 12 week Body For Life program ?

Leslie, I agree. Chalene makes you feel like you can do anything. She's having a great challenge right now for accomplishing goals. Am also trying to follow that as well.

Turbofire is a serious calorie burning workout. :) I'm hooked on it but fell off the wagon. I like to think of it as the female version of Insanity. It's set to music and has choreographed moves that include high intensity interval training. I like it because it feels more like a fun dance workout then a chore. I'm…
