  • My DH wants to go to the movies to see The Hunger Games. First thing I thought of was popcorn & candy!!! I have decided I will be a bad girl and pop my own corn and sneak it in, and not have any candy. (i'm sure i will be thinking about the chocolate covered raisins the whole time) At least I know how many calories I will…

  • I have been missing in action the past several months, mainly due to guilt!!! This past November started my decline. Son sent me a cookie bouquet which I proceeded to eat the entire thing in a matter of days!! Then came the holidays and it was non stop celebrating. Mid January I stopped my walking routine (my dog has…

  • Hello all....yesterday started the beginning of having dental surgery for my new bridge. My mouth is sore and could only have soft foods. My DH made a pot of chicken noodle soup, and it was delicious. I went overboard with the Chobani yogurt. The calories add up fast, so I have seen "red" these past two days after logging…

  • There is a very active forum "Women age 50+ January 2012". Under the main forums MOTIVATION AND SUPPORT. Quite a few grandmas!!! I think there have been over 400 posts so far this month. I'm sure you will find many friends. I will be a first time grandma any day now (son) and in March my daughter. Can't wait.

  • Right about losing it fast when you first start!!!At least that was the way with me. I was able to lose 30 pounds the first six months by staying at 1200 calories a day. I started exercising (walking the dog) about one mile a day, and have worked it up to now sometimes doing 6 miles in one day. I just joined this group as…

  • I have read through most of this thread and said to myself...WOW, this is a place I need to be!! I started on my journey last December 28, 2010 very motivated and determined to get my weight down and improve my health.

  • Isn't it a great feeling not wearing those xxl t-shirts anymore???? You have done a fantastic job. I have been on this journey exactly one year. I have been stuck at the same weight for the past four months, actually, I think I have gained a few pounds over the holidays. Your posting has come at a perfect time for me. You…

  • Level 2 Day 3 Wasn't able to complete the whole circuit. Gave up after 19 minutes. I blame it on not doing any exercise over weekend. I did just get back from a 2 mile walk in 30 minutes. Yeah me!! I WILL complete the circuit tomorrow...I will complete the circuit tomorrow...I will complete the circuit tomorrow.

  • Level 2 Day 1 OMG!!! Almost felt like the first time I started Level 1 day 1, however, didn't turn the video off. LOL. Worked my way through with breaks. Planks are a ***ch, even doing it with Anita. I burned 158 cals even with several in between breaks. Can't wait to see how many I will burn without breaks!! Good Luck!!!…

  • Just ran across this topic and would love to join in!!! The first day I did this I thought I was going to die!! Only got through about 15 minutes and had to quit. I felt sick to my stomach and thought I would pass out. My husband told me to look at my drivers license in case I had forgotten how old I was. (I'll be 63 in…

  • I'm on day four, level one and still have not done each segment all the way through. I am working on stamina and do see myself doing more each time. I'm using four pound weights, not sure what amount they should be. I'm sure this will take me longer due to my age, but found out I will be a grandma in January and March and…

  • I started level 1 yesterday and could NOT make it to the end. I barely got half way through. I did not realize how out of shape I must be. I actually was sick to my stomach and soooo out of breath. I'm sure it has something to do with my age, as my husband said "look at your drivers license, you are not YOUNG anymore." I…
