Hi - I just found this site and it seems very cool. I am 43 years old and figure its time to get the outside of me looking like the inside of me feels. Pretty good :) I have worked hard on the inside part and now its time to put that same effort into the outside of me. I am active but somehow still ballooned to 200 lbs and I'm 5 ft tall! Activities with my kids are getting harder. Anyone in SoCal looking for workout friend? My husband is so sweet that anytime I ask for a burger, he brings one home... sigh. I Love Burgers! :laugh: Its time to get serious! Boy that sure is hard for me... my follows through stinks!~Viv :)

Welcome aboard. I am too far away to be a work out buddy; in Canada; but I will help by providing a listener. First suggestion I can make for you is to get the diet under control. You can be as active as you want, if you eat the wrong stuff the weight will continue to be a problem. If saying no to the burgers is too hard have the hubby stop offering them, maybe he could stop by a nearby smoothie bar instead.

I have been working out in some capacity for 6 years and I still have goals to reach. My shortfall is I like to eat and I like it salty, fries do me in. Just remember that it takes time and don't give up.
