This is how I see it (my own opinion); you're either committed - together - one - married or your separate. And that means EVERYTHING. If you are committed and IN the relationship you shouldn't hold anything back, if you are....you aren't 100% committed. We agree on what we're spending money on and if I go out and buy…

I was going to ask what age did you consider "middle" haha! I guess per your description I fall into that category; I'll be 44 tomorrow but I don't think of myself as middle aged. :bigsmile: EDIT: I'm on MFP every day

I'm the exact opposite; I run WAY faster outside than on a treadmill (and much further); the reason? I think because I hate running in the house going "no where" and its too mundane to stay on for very long so 3 miles is really hard for me on the treadmill. Also, I can "see" the speed on the treadmill and idk if it freaks…

I commend you for not punching her.... and yeah; I'm competitive like that..I'd have to work hard to be toner, fitter and hotter then she could ever dream of being just to shove it in her face.... HOW RUDE!!!

Okay, I will say I'm 43 and my husband was a personal trainer... I was in the military, so I went to boot camp I trained in Shaolin Kempo and was an instructor for a while I was on eDiets for a year or more Jillian Michaels website for about 3-4 months I have used the Tough Mudder Boot Camp workouts as well as Hal Higdon's…

Hi I'm Vanessa and I'll be 44 next week. I lost most of my weight at age 38 but put a little back on at age 42 when there was a lot of upheaval in my life (moving, changing jobs, building a house, living in a hotel, my son went over seas, my cat died...) Anyway, the only difference between when I lost weight then and now…

So funny thing...I posted I believed this article was total tripe and guess what? I just read the scientific proof that it IS total tripe... It's a long read, but if you want some FACTS...here is it http://gokaleo.com/2013/06/11/women-and-running/ I especially liked the closing 2 paragraphs, "If anything should be taken…

^^ Agree with this

Total tripe; I guess I'm fat and getting fatter? B/c I run 15-30 miles a week..but not on a dreadmill...outside where I get some air. And I despise team sports; that is not an alternative for me. I don't belong to a gym, have a team of friends to go play soccer, volley ball, etc nor do I care to. I enjoy running, swimming,…

Highly recommend a training program: One is free online Hal Higdon's - pick your distance: http://www.halhigdon.com/training/ The other is a book and costs ~$12 on Amazon (very good; I'm using it and it was recommended to me by my marathon running friends) Road Racing for Serious Runners…

Derek has some good ones: http://dhftns.com/healthy-recipes/protein-shake-recipes/ There are some good one's on this website (I've used): http://www.thebestofrawfood.com/how-to-make-smoothies.html I love this one Arugula Lettuce and Pear Ingredients 1 banana 2-3 pears 2 tablespoons hulled hemp seed 1 bag of frozen…

The rule of thumb with salads: Keep it simple and from the earth (veggies; nuts; seeds) If you are going to put animal protein on it: do not go with FRIED anything, grilled is a better option and low fat cheese (measure the cheese and go light) Dressing: vinaigrette is the best way to go; creamy will just get you into…

But those who give no thought what so ever to what they eat or to exercise and are overweight...they're okay? no disorder there?

@Akp4him - We're pretty darn close I am: Age: 43 (44 in a couple of weeks) Height: 5'2" CW: 126 GW: 117

Actually, clean eating IS beneficial. I try to incorporate 50-75% raw (veg/fruit/nuts/seeds) into my diet daily. It's not a waste of time, unless you just like being sick and paying lots of money to doctors and pharmacies. While people all around me are constantly suffering from colds, flu, viruses, lots of other…

'74 Chevy Manza Spider 5 speed; re-built engine, brand new interior but really needed a paint job. Sure loved that car. I remember putting $5 in and driving forever. :smile:

10 years later and my sister still won't lift heavy....just sayin'

Definitely get an HRM b/c I can do the same workout and my intensity may be different because of how I'm feeling that day and I'll burn different amounts (depends on my heart rate).

Pain is just weakness leaving the body! OOH-RAH!!!

Have you done any of their boot camps? They wicked and they'll get you ready...they will seriously increase your stamina, endurance and your speed. There are three levels: beginner, intermediate and the Tough Mudder. Start with the Mudderling, then move up to the Maybe Mudder, then go to the Tough Mudder. You should be…

A Carolina sandwich (modified): Tomatoes, Avocado, Cucumber, Swiss Cheese, (I added some Mesquite smoked turkey), light mayo, grey poupon, dash of ground pepper and sprinkle of Caesar dressing on whole wheat bread. SUPER DELISH! That was lunch!!

Very Much Against! I'm sorry for their loss but ultimately it is the parent's responsibility to keep their children safe and not put them in unsafe situation. It's time for people to start taking responsibility for their own actions and stop blaming others.

Congratulations on a job well done!!

I'm 43, 5'2", small frame and wear a size 2 in misses or 3 in juniors (yes I have both). I am the same measurements I was in HS, so I don't think I'm wearing Vanity sizes. I could probably be a 0 but I have a hard enough time finding 2s...I can't imagine trying to find a 0. I only shop in juniors for casual clothes or…

Cereal alone will cause you to be hungry soon...I think there just isn't enough protein to tide you over. If you still want to do cereal. Try 3/4 cup of cereal, 3/4 cup of berries, 3/4 milk and 8 cashews (or other nuts) along with an ounce of low fat cheese. This will help keep you longer You can also do cottage cheese &…

Three things that help with speed for running: Plyometrics Speed drills Hills but you said you are lacking endurance....you just need to focus on distance not speed. I highly recommend the following book (it's only like $12-14 at Amazon or may $19)…

It is easy to get discouraged...not as easy to feel good about ourselves; wonder why that is? I lost more than I ever expected to lose and dropped more sizes than I ever expected to drop...yet even a couple pound gain can have me discouraged and down on myself. It is just natural human nature to get down on ourselves and…
