  • Dance with the grandkids is a good addition in my world! They are enthusiastic, don't care what they look like and have fun with the music!
  • Good Morning, Ladies... I just found your board and enjoyed reading the positive encouragement from so many. My name is Kim. I'm 58 and married. I'm a museum curator and love my job. It can be very physical, and I need to be strong. But I tore up a knee many years ago and the pounds slow crept up until I was almost 100…
  • Congratulations! Welcome to Onederland!!!
  • Biking 40 miles a week and doing it at 5 -5 1/2 mph... Still aiming to ride the bike at the same rate I use to run... The bike riding has led to another pant size smaller, even if my weight hasn't dropped as fast as I'd like. So now I'm looking forward to shopping in the "normal" size clothes rather than the plus sizes…
  • WTG!!! Unexpected and random recognition of our efforts to get healthy go along way toward motivating us to a complete lifestyle change!!!
  • WOW!!! You would not even know that the two women are the same woman! She is a great inspiration and I hope that the rest of your family is following her healthy lead!
  • One of the comments is that only you two can know the right answer for your situation. They are right... trust your heart. Know that marriage is not easy or a quick fix to anything. It is not a matter of how long you know each other, but how well... and how much you are willing to work and forgive as well as love... This…
  • Don't give up!!! We all need the mind set of going forward, even if that means starting over every three days... If I work out 3 days in a row and miss one, I no longer beat myself up. What I do is make sure I do not miss the next day, no matter what... Even if it is only for 15 minutes! Because then my mind says "ha... we…
  • Valerie! Glad to see you here and good luck on your knee surgery! Keep us posted on how you are doing... Kim
  • I love Yoga and hope to add that back into my life... I quit several years ago and can tell everyday when I am doing anything that requires a bit of stretching! Like touching the floor... :huh:
  • What a great goal! I wish I had started before I turned 50 as well! I have really enjoyed MFP as a means for really "seeing" how I spend my calories. I have found out that I am a "carb junkie" and that I really LOVE cheese! Taking baby steps to change my eating habits is making those changes permanent! Yippee! Now let's…
  • I'm here as well! I'm 55, need to lose more than 50 pounds, married for 35 years to a VERY fit man of 57 years, with 5 kids and 9 grandchildren -- ages 18 months to 15 1/2 years (the half is very important--LOL). I want to be there for all my grandkids to graduate from high school and college, get married, and have their…
  • being "great wife material"... Actually, I got dumped three times for the same reason and twice by the same guy (okay... that was my fault)! BUT the upside of this story is that they were right. My dear husband and I just celebrated our 35th anniversary! :love: So they must have been right:blushing: I was great wife…
  • My husband, who is also a cyclist (24 miles three days a week), actually has to eat those kind of bars to maintain his weight. I had to learn that unless I was willing to be as "mondo" as him tht eating like him was not in the realm of possibility!:tongue:
  • This would be a great time to take your measurements and do a reality check on how your clothes are fitting. I have just restarted MFP, but when I was working out regularly (I use to be very athletic), plateaus were not uncommon. I'd gain muscle, lose fat and the scales remained the same... BUT my measurements would change…
