I feel bad ,after all  i have gone through,and my hard work ,i asked a close friend and he told me that  it was true,my arms and upper  body looks  skinny compared to my lower body.i have the pear shape body.

Thanks...

I started this ,last year and trust me i was in real pain at that moment(emottionally).

Never tought i could make it,but yesterday i was trying to fit ,on my daughters pants(she is 17 yrs old) and they fit me!!!!!!!!!now i am size 4 officially..Cool

Eat normal,i try not to eat too many carbs but its almost impossible! lol

I have to admit it:My hubby cheatting on me,(a yr ago) really helped me losing that weight hahaha   , Time for a Revenge???Undecided .........

ok take care and keep going ,because we can achieve whatever we want ,just takes persistance,determination and patience.

Have a great weekend!!!

lolalabella ~ you might need to change things up to lose that last bit. Maybe add some weights to your exercise routine. Are you eating the same things? If you are, change that. Some change will def help you!  Good Luck!!

 Hi,

Thanks for the advice,i actually increased the speed (ellipticalholic)=/ , and lost 4 pounds!!!! i am 135 lbs now.!!!!!!!!!!! Wink

The only problem that i am noticing is ,that ,when i dont workout i feel "weird"

unhappy,kind of depressed,anxious, and angry.

ok ladies i dont post frequently cause of lack of time,but i try to read you at least once a wek.

Have a wonderful day.

You know you hear it all the time.  "The older you get the harder it is to lose wieght." or "It will caught up to when hit your 30's"  It is a well known fact that as your metabolism slows down.  I've only been on this website 4 days and I have looked around some but didn't come across anything yet for some of us older ones trying to lose wieght!  I was just on find your twin and noticed that mostly younger crowd signing in there. Couldn't go through 90 pages to find some my age.  Thought I'd start a thread to find a buddy of similiar age and stats geared to motivate those of us with the Age challenge. 

So here is mine

AGE: 45

Height 5'3 or 5'4 (been a while since I measured my self)

Wieight: 206lb

Build: Large (I think by the wrist test)

Weight Goal:135 -

Non Weight Goal - Working out 5 times a week doing at least 30-60 minutes of cardio or swimming and weights 2-3 times a week for 40 minutes,

Anyone out there that is similiar and would like to work at motivating each other!

AGE: 40

HEIGHT: 5'2

WEIGHT: 139LBS

WEIGHT GOAL :126LBS

BUILD: SMALL


STARTED 183 IN OCT 6,2007,WORKING OUT 5 DAYS A WEEK FOR 60 MINUTES ON THE ELLIPTICAL.

BUT FOR SOME REASON I CANNOT LOSE THE OTHER 16 POUNDS  LEFT!!!
