  • I'm 5'6 1/2 and was happy at 163lbs, ultimately goal is 155> "curvy" latina, if I go below that I'm anorexic on top. I like "shape" just gotta keep it all MUSCLE :) Good luck everyone
  • Hey Waterlily, welcome!!!!! This site is great for support and it is awesome to keep track of your calories and see how much more you can eat when you do activity. Feel free to add me as a friend and us 40+ ladies will stick together to be the best yet!!!!
  • Kids or no kids, our bodies seem to stay in sync with being "wacky" after 40 but I strongly believe as long as we take care of it we can be new parents or grandparents and feel great while we take care of our little ones! Keep pushing and we will emerge in victory!
  • Seriously, you are not lying! I am determined to figure out what my body wants, make the adjustments and remain in control of it. I don't like feeling as though I (my mind) has no say! It's #@*& up right?
  • That is what I'm coming to realize. My family says, you look like your losing weight (ha!) But I believe it is from all the strength training to try and build more muscle. Thanks for validating my thoughts!
  • Ha, Ha.....that is great.
  • I am a huge football (Da Bears!) fan and I motto life after football. Currently us 40+ ladies are in third quarter in the game of life. This is it! What we do now will mold our fourth quarter and how our game will end. Will we win or lose? Third quarter for me is empty nesting, traveling with my husband enjoy hanging out…
  • ZUMBA! I don't know if you like to dance, but you can burn up 700-1000 calories in an hour if you have an energetic instructor. It's fun, the time flies and sitting down to a piece of cake (or ice cream) will be free!
  • Would you share your ranch dressing recipe? We have a plethera of food allergies in our home, corn and soy being the major ones and unless I drive 20 minutes to the nearest Whole Foods, I cannot get salad dressings. Oil and Vinegar just gets old. Thanks!
  • HA HA, wisdom. Yes, or I could have really listened to my mother all these years (no matter the age I don't think we ever do) and believed her when she said "this will happen to you"
  • It's funny you say rest, I was never a napper, but this past year they are another thing I have to try and factor into my day! THANKS!
  • HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
