Women over 40 success stories...
I need some motivation. I've totally lost mine. Between the stress I've been under and medications I've taken over the last year, I'm at my heaviest. I know I need to exercise, but I'm a cheapskate, so I don't want to spend money at the gym. Anyone lose weight with just walking and/or swimming in addition to diet changes?

30 Day Shred...only workout
This topic may be on here, but I haven't been able to find it. Are there people who only did 30 DS and lost pounds and inches? I do not have time to workout for an hour nor do I currently have the strength or endurance. I was walking/running but felt like I needed to "up my game" with a more full body workout, so I did. I…

Feeling sad a bit...
Ok. I'm really, really struggling with getting into good habits. I have asked one question where I got a couple of responses that were kind of mean.
