Hi Salsa, I'm clocking 52 this year, every year seems much the same as the year before to me, then again I don't really dwell on it, not much you can do about it anyway so I say embrace it. Nice job on the activities you've been doing too. Catchya. Crow...

Hey Allayna, you'll romp that in no probs. Welcome aboard! I've been off for awhile and just getting back into it this week so if you'd like some support look me up. All the best.

Hey Star, I've had a bit of time away from here but starting off again this week so if you'd like someone to tag along with you I'd be happy for us to motivate each other. Friend me up if you like.

If any of you need a friend you can add me. I'm starting over again this week after a few months away from it. It can be done and you can do it. Good luck with it!

Hey Synderae, well if you need a friend you can look me up. Hope you decide and commit on a course of action soon. :)

Hey Sharon, welcome to MFP - if you need another friend you can add me if you like. I'm on here every day.

Hey Monte, I'd be happy to friend up if you like. Welcome to the 40's :)

Oops mentioned yoga twice - Doh! BTW nice Velma piccy ;)

Hi Luckie, what about some low impact circuits made up of pushups, planking, situps, wall sits, crunches, leg raises, tricep dips, bridges, hip raises, pivot uppercuts etc. A lot of these exercises can be done with variations to work different areas and you can pivot on your knees for the pushups if it puts to much…

Hey Nemephy, it's great to have you here! you seriously sound motivated so more power to you. I was going to send you a friends request but you scare the crap out of me! Haha j/k, seriously, I wish you all the best - 15lbs b4 Jan? that is so doable and you seem to have the energy on tap to get it done, focus it and let it…

Hi kat, I wish I had as good as reason as you but I don't - I just ate myself to my weight because I basically just didn't care enough about what I was doing :( - I wish you all the best with your goals. If you need a friend look me up. This place has been really helpful to me so far :)

I'm reading iWoz by Steve Wozniak of Apple fame

Hi spanorchid, welcome to MFP. I've been on here for a couple of months and I'm finding it really helpful in dropping the pounds - hope you can get the same out of it. If you need a friend fire away.

Hi Kimmy, Welcome to the board, I'll help if I can so add me if you like. I do have an opinion on those shakes though - I think you're doing it tough if they are comprising the majority of your eating and I think they just don't fill that same sensation you get from actually chewing, swallowing and enjoying real food. If…

Oh BTW - you know you can change the measurement units? Home -> Settings -> Change Units And you can't really blame people for talking in measurements they've used their entire lives. I'm sure there's things we say that drive them batty. Especially some of the slang our two countries have a penchant for. Anyway, it's all…

Haha no kidding you're not Aussies, how could anyone ever confuse us :P As for pounds it's not so bad 2.2lb to a kilo - done. Welcome to the jungle and if you want to friend up feel free to add me.

Hi Vanessa, You can add me if you like - liking your attitude and I agree wholeheartedly with your sentiment - optimism like that is contagious ;) "Looking cuter doesn't hurt either" :laugh: cracked me up haha!

Hey Sara, Welcome aboard - I'm just a newbie too and from what I've experienced so far (early days I know) I think it has the tools and community to get us to where we want to be. I think you just need to think of your back slide into unhealthiness as a previous chapter of the book. Time for a new chapter so turn the page,…

Hi inhobbited, Sounds like a sensible plan to me :wink: - you're right, everyone tackles things a bit differently and if going slow is the way to get across the line then I say go for it. One of the big dangers is going at it like a bull at a gate, burning yourself out, losing momentum and ultimately failing. So if this…
