Look into naturally slim to help you drop the weight. It's been great for me and amazing for my wife.

I booked marked the page after reading all the highlights. Thanks for the advice and I'm gong to look into it a little more.

Good luck! I've done this off and on (Age 47, no kids) and may take a year off again soon to travel the country and take pics. Things I learned the hard way:
1. Make sure you have some structure to your day. The more rituals the better imo. After years of working you will quickly feel adrift w/o it. Something like a workout class at 8am 3 days/week worked great for me. 2. Find something to occupy your mind. I learned and played online poker and also learned some new programming languages. The times I wasn't engaged I quickly got lazy-brain which led to general blah feeling. 3. Volunteer for something a few hours/week. This will give you back many times what you put into it in terms of satisfaction, and will help fulfill your biological need to feel useful to the tribe. Also if you really want to lose that much weight I'd recommend looking into some kind of structured program at a local university or hospital. If that's not available find a nutritionist. You want to do it the right way or it will **** up your metabolism. I learned that the hard way too. |

I'm down 17# in 6 weeks, and I'm not adhering strictly. My wife has dropped 60# in 15 weeks.

I learned about it from another online message board, where lots of people have lost the weight and kept it off. We still eat anything we want, just slower and less of it. I have had very few instances of being hungry or craving something I couldn't eat. A lot of big employers even pay for it, and they run specials occasionally on the price. It's not cheap, since it's an online course there's no food or anything else to make their money on, but it's probably cheaper per pound than any other program.

interesting. I'll have to read up on it more . My fat ass needs to lose probably 60+lbs.
same with my wife, though with her MS diagnosis a few years back, it's hard for her to really exercise to the point of burning enough to actually lose a chunk of weight like that. So, something like this sounds beneficial to her; changing some stuff, and a little moderate exercise would do the trick for her I think. i've been trying to take a 1/2 walk during my lunch break at work a few times a week to try to 'start' a bit of a lifestyle change.

You can eat a lot less food than you do today and still not be hungry, you just don't know it yet! http://www.tivocommunity.com/communi...#post-11159049

Good luck.
I took today off. Spent most of it driving back from a man trip this weekend. I rarely do that taking a day off to do something for me. I think I'm going to try to do a little more of that. I just realized I spent 3hrs of my day off on conference calls. |

P90x literally changed my life. Started it 6 years ago. Couldn't even pass the prelim test when I started, and could only do about 30% of the reps. But I hung in there. I went from 203lbs to 178 during the first 90 days, and that was with putting on a bunch of muscle. I bet I lost 40-plus lbs of fat. I did the recommended diet with it, so the whole time I was stuffing my face full of chicken and veggies until I couldn't eat any more.
Once you get to the end of the 90 days, you have a new body and the discipline to keep it that way. |

Good for you, scho!
I just turned 51. I'm not far behind you in terms of being burned out. Hopefully, at the end of this year, I will have sold a business that gives me enough **** you money that I'll only work when I want to. My plan is to spend my time travelling with my wife, hanging out with my kids and volunteering with several organizations. I've been a rat in the race for my entire adult life - it's time to enjoy the fruits of my labor as well as my health while I still have it. I wish you all the best, scho. May you capture happiness and health in the next chapter of your journey through life!

Am I the only person in their fifties who can't afford to stop working and wander the world?
