Turning Back The Clock

Greatest Thrivers has been an interesting experience for me. At sixty years old, I still have a lot to learn. This is my first blogging experience and I am up for the challenge. Hurray! (I think I am getting younger.)
When I began Greatest Thrivers in September, I really didn't have much hope that I could get myself back in shape. I was very stiff and unable to walk without wobbling to and fro. Greatest Thrivers was not my first time at losing those ugly pounds. I have lost a ton of weight in my lifetime, but never learned how to keep the pounds away.
My trainer, Laurie Stonerock, has been an inspiration to me. She has taught me a lot about exercise. I work out 5-6 times each week and increase my weight training every two weeks. I never dreamed I could find the time to exercise so much, but somehow I have managed to get it done. It almost seems natural to me now.
I have lost 25 pounds and 24 inches so far. This weekend when I went sale shopping I thought I had died and gone to heaven. Ha! What a treat to buy new clothes that actually looked good on me.
