Hi everyone. My name is Cat and I'm just beginning the journey back to fitness. I will be turning 50 by the end of the year and I have decided to reward myself with a great trip to Europe when I reach my fitness goal. As a teenager I was competitive in gymnastics and tennis in addition to showing horses. Somehow through the years work became more important than anything else and I ended up giving up all my sports and hobbies one by one. Recently I decided that this is no way to live anymore and even though I am still a work-o-holic I am starting to fit in more "ME-time".
My first priority is now to lose aprox 100 lbs and get back in shape so that I can really enjoy my trip and the life that follows. I am planning to bike and hike all over Europe so that I will continue getting fitter even while I vacation.So now it's time to begin.....

Hey Cat!

Wow - that vacation sounds like a powerful motivator to get your body and mind in shape...good for you! And what fun!

We have a wonderful, active group called the 100 lb club, for those who are on their way to losing or have lost 100 lbs or more. Check it out!

We also have the 40-somethings and the 50-plus group...you could go into either, we're not checking IDs at the door

Otherwise, look around, find a spot, and settle in. Can't wait to hear more from you soon!

I just joined last week and this place is the best. lots of support, feedback, diet tips. Whatever you need it is here, you just have to do a little surfing. I am getting close to 50 (47 in November). My husband and I have a deal. I needed something to work for. So when I lose 50 lbs we are going to go either on a Hawaiian cruise or go to New Zealand. It is my choice. Me I want to go to New Zealand but it depends on funds too! So I will settle for a cruise.

Gook luck on your journey. We are all in this together
