Default Back after 5 years...

So five years ago a guy friend scared me into getting more fit as he said that after 35 it all goes down hill and the climb up get more difficult.

Well, it had an impact on me as I was nearing turning 35. With the help of a good friend, high motivation and this great website, I achieved my goal and lost 20 pounds in two months but it took a lot of hard work.

Fast forward 5 years and I'm back as I'm nearing a new milestone - 40!!!
So starting tomorrow when I go back to work after these holidays I am back on the wagon, trying to lose those same 20 pounds - to start!

Here's wishing us all the motivation we need every minute of every day.

Hello

Mentally this should come easy to you as you have done it before. Take it easy physically and ease your way into things. I believe you can do this again!!

I enjoy being active and have only started doing so more lately after finally recovering from a sports injury this summer.

Looking forward to sweating!
