Female, 47 Years Old

United States

I am a 46 year old female that use to be in great shape took about 10 years off and boy does it show. I am finally getting back into the swing of things and have went back to working out and changing my lifestyle. I have lost over 30 pounds so far looking to lose a total of 120. Looking for advice on obtaining my goal. Please no quick fixes. I know they don't work.

OK instead of changing it, for now just going to add to it. As of today 12/10/2007 I have lost 49 pounds. I feel great. Body Pump is a bit harder for us big gals but I am the incrediable shrinking woman. I am down from a size 24 to a size 18. And they fit comfortably. I have gotten a ton of support on this site along with great ideas to truly live a healthy lifestyle. Sometimes when leaving work, it's dark rainy or snowing and I am tired from the day and I sit in my car saying Augh I need to just get home, then I think you know what you need to get your big ole butt in the gym. And I go. 49 pounds shows I am determine to do this. I will keep you all posted, thanks again for your support.

As of 2/14/08 Happy Valentine's Day.
OK folks...things are a bit stalled here. I am down a total of 60 pounds which I am very very happy about, but some female issues are preventing me to go to the gym right now. So I get out walking every day the weather is nice.I have a pretty good routine down when my body cooperates, Monday=Body Pump Wednesday=Kick Class Friday=Treadmill and yoga. I am keeping a food journal most days.Yea Yea I know. I work for the Univ of Pennsylvania and they have a really nice track that I walk on now. Will let you all know what's up soon. Love ya all have a great day.

Lisa	Mary Anne, I love your spirit! I wasn't ever too heavy, but with the birth of my fourth child at 40, my body didn't bounce back and I continued to put on weight. With diet and exercise, I lost 50 pounds and went from size 14 to 2. Hang in there, girl! You're doing great. Les Mills programs are a wonderful way to get there! Lisa

Hi Mary Anne

Hope you are well, been a while since I dropped by. How are things going, still making it to the gym? Enjoying it?

Noticed your age went up can only mean one thing, you've had a birthday or about to have one. Either way Hope you have a wonderful day and are spoilt with gifts and love.

Many happy returns for your day!

Cheers
