51 years old. Detemined to live into the future in hugely healthy ways.


Am 51- the lbs gradually accumulated. I reached my goal about a year ago, and am now trying to maintain my weight.


36 yr old mother of 4 daughters, working part-time Currently reading The Beck Diet and doing the PT Point of No Return program. Recently finished reading Eat to Live and the Eat for Health books. Beginning a journey of learning to cook mostly oil-free, dairy, gluten, & wheat-free, and nutritarian. I used to think I ate well--lots of veggies, lean meats, and low-fat dairy. Followed (loosely) the South Beach Diet for nearly 8 years with some success but lately the weight was creeping back on. ETL has turned that around and given me tools (mentally & literally) to bring back my health and youth. Hardest thing for me is finding foods my kids will eat too so I'm not making 2 meals every night. My husband has high cholesterol and is overweight--his frustrations and fails to stick to not snacking often lead me to snack right along with him. I'm a night-eater. Hardest habit to kick: chocolate--it's my gate-way drug. I can't just have a bite. I'm exercising more than I have in years and this feels great (intervals on stationary bike w/moving arms, 4 days/week, core strength exercises w/free weights or resistances bands on 2 days, 1 day off). Now I'm starting to see the muscle definition that's there as the fat melts off!
