      Hi Amy, thank you so much for sharing your fitness back to health Journey, it gives me hope for myself, I am 64 years young and found out through my doctors that I have very bad cholesterol and some issues with my heart, I am only 5'4 have loss some inches in my height...lol so now I am learning to eat different and I walk and lift light weights just for my arms right now, I am not very over weight ,I weigh 133 pounds my goal is to get my cholesterol down to a healthy level and do better for my heart, it is getting pretty chilly where I live so by the end of this month I will have to go to the gym to do my walking, I too love being outdoors to exercise it's so calming to me I feel closer to the Lord Jesus as I pray and talk with Him as I am outside enjoying the beauty of his creation, I love the time you give here on your videos and when you share the Word of God, just want to say Thank you for everything from sharing your home and decorating to your own personal life 💖 you are truly a gift and inspiration , God Bless you and your family. from Julia in Southern Indiana .....or people just call me Julie.

MINDSET. The first place to get healthy has to be your mind.

    I’m 54 and 180 lbs. This is the heaviest I’ve ever been. My body is changing and I want to learn how to be a good steward in this new season of life. In the last several years, I experienced a traumatic event, menopause, loss my mother, and other stressful situations. As a Christian, my faith is being tested and I am praying God would give me grace to know what He is teaching me. I now have health problems that require attention, but I’m going to do the work to help my body feel better. Thank you for the inspiration, tips and support. May our Lord Jesus continue to guide your steps as you seek to glorify Him with your body, talents and gifts! 🙏✝️❤

      My story is so very similar. Im 53 and my weight was always in the 160s after losing 192 lbs over 12 years ago. I had a hysterectomy in 2019 and not until 2022 I lost my son and grandchildren to alienation...I fell into deep depression and im menopausal. I am now fluctuating in the 180s...I so desperately want to feel good again and I ask Jesus everyday to guide me to be empowered by the spirit to move. My diet is already very good so I know its the stressor in my life that are holding me back. I wish you well and God heals you...and WAY TO GO AMY👏👏👏💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏

      Congratulations on your weight loss so far and sorry for your loss, I lost my mom 10 years ago now and I still feel her with me everyday ♥️ I turned 50 this summer, and found I was also gaining weight and over all didn’t feel the greatest. Like Amy I started adding more protein, and low card and intermittent fast, from about 6:00 pm until 9:00 am, I know my body and I have always been a breakfast person, I get headaches if I miss is. But I switched to a smoothie adding all the things I need and I feel great and full. I also started moving my body 4-5 times a week, I follow 50 Fabulous workout on RUclips and have gone down 2 pant sizes. She does work out programs for our age group, 8 minutes, 10 minutes, longer, walking, weights etc, I combine 2 or 3 each day and I feel really good. I have a bad knee and her workouts are easy on the body. Good luck ☺️

I also lift small free weights 3 days a week I have lost weight. I have cut back in my eating. I feel youthful again. I am in my late 60's. People are noticing that I have lost weight.

It’s been SO hard watching my body change, and just the other day I finally took the plunge and started working out again. It’s been KICKING MY BUTT, but this video really helped me stay motivated.

I grew up as one of the skinny girls who could eat anything and everything. It wasn’t until after 2 pregnancies, a hysterectomy at 33 and the weight slowly crept up. At 5’ 5” and my highest weight was 230. I started a program on the last day of January, start weight of 221. After 9 months, I’m at 150 and I feel great! This is 40 pounds above my pre pregnancy weight but I know that at 61 years old, 140 is a healthy weight for me so that’s my goal.

    I am so glad I found your channel. We are so similar with our body types, all the way down to our Chick Fil A meals with a Dr. Pepper. I have put on so much weight this year and I have been so discouraged of what I have let myself become. Your video just gave me a boost of encouragement. Congratulations on your journey! Hopefully I am not far behind you.💕

    First if all, Congratulations to you, Amy! Thank you for being so open and honest about your journey. I know that is not easy to do! I have been watching your channel for a longtime now. Thank you for being so inspiring and encouraging! I'm almost 50 (next year), I had my kids a little older than most. They are 8 and 13. I never lost the baby weight from my 2nd. My father passed away in 2019 and my husband's father passed away this February. It's been a real struggle. In between I lost 20 lbs, because my doctor said it was a good idea to start focusing on my health. Well, i gained it back. I felt so good to lose it, but life happens and I need to focus on me again! Your video has inspired me to do it! Thank you for sharing your approach. It has definitely motivated me to work on both the physical and mental parts of myself, so I can lead a healthy life and be there for my kids and husband! ❤

    Good morning, I enjoy your videos I have watched you when you and your family lived in Atlanta. I just turned 61 and I started my weight journey at the end of February of this year. Recently I had my blood work done as a follow up appointment my results are great from prior blood work. As of today I have lost 74 pounds!! My results have surprised me!!!! No exercise at this time hope to start soon. You look great and your passion is spot on. Congratulations Amy!!!! Great video!!!! Enjoy your family

    I have been following you for such a long time now, and have always loved your videos, but I have to say, this one is one of my favorites. You addressed all my questions and brought so much encouragement.

I’ve tried restrictive diets and they just aren’t sustainable. Thank you for your insight and tips. I also appreciate the fact that even though you’ve lost weight, you still dress modestly❤️Also, oddly enough, my family will most likely be moving to Ohio in the next year for my husbands job!

    Amy, I’ve been following your channel for a while now and let me just say….I am so very, very proud of you. You are amazing to be able to keep your home so pretty, be so talented, raise a family, and tackle something as hard as weight loss! I am just like you in that I never worried about weight my whole life. I cheered in middle school and played soccer in high school. Now, I have struggled with my weight for about 12 years. I am so ashamed that I don’t like to take pictures or be in pictures at all. You have really inspired me to start trying now. I just never know where to begin. ❤

      @kellyvann203 just a note to encourage you to work on the mindset that the only goal is to be healthy and once you achieve that mindset, the tyranny of the scales and how you look will not hold you back. Don't hold back from asking for tips, I WAS that unhealthy skinny girl and the pressure to stay that way gave me body dysmorphia for years until I met my husband. Now as a mom of & I am healthy and strong - I'd love to help you get started!

    I'm a new follower so I had no idea that you were once struggling with weight gain. What an amazing journey and I am grateful to you, Amy, for sharing with us! I, like you, am using an app to count my calories (same app as you). I had a nutritionist tell me that counting calories (logging your food) is crucial. You need to know what your eating! I heartily agree in first figuring out the "why" of how you got the extra pounds on, otherwise, you could pack those pounds right back on! Secondly, an accountability partner is so imperative! While there are all kinds of diets out there that work well, I believe that for me, it is so important to have an eating plan (I don't use the word diet) that you can live with for the rest of your life. If you don't, you may gain that weight right back once you return to your old way of eating. So, basically, good for you! I began losing the weight because those extra pounds were killing my knees! I also am active in my work and day to day life. I enjoy the YMCA in area! The Y is awesome! I'm what folks would call a "senior" though I don't use the word to describe myself, but in reality, I am older and those excess pounds were killing my knees! I can tell a difference! My knees are happier! I have a few more pounds to go and there's no guarantee that I'll manage to avoid knee replacement surgery, but if not, I'll know that I've done all I can to avoid surgery. Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us!

    Hi Amy,
    I’m so happy for you.
    Thank you for sharing what worked for you.😊
    I’ve been on a weight loss journey since July and have been doing the intermittent fasting.
    I’ve have lost almost 20 lbs!
    I’m 56 years old, so the weight is coming off slowly, but I definitely will add more water and will exercise more.
    God is good and may he continue to bless you.💕

    I think what I love most about this video and your journey is that you did it the healthiest way. Counting calories and watching your sugar and fat content is still the best way. Plus you incorporated exercise. My husband and I walk daily which is still considered better than running ( hard on knees) but comfortable shoes are a must! Congratulations on your accomplishment! You are going to inspire a lot of people!

    You are an inspiration to women. At almost 50 I can no longer run( I used to love it too and get runner high, but bad knees and hips...) My husband who watched who has been telling me for years to do weight training instead of pounding on my bad joints finally told me to get a personal trainer and I have been loving feeling stronger. I still walk 3 to 4 times a week because frankly I LOVE it but building muscles 💪🏾 32:01 for us women is so important, it raises your resting metabolism and helps to prevent injuries. Bravo to you!! You look AMAZING!!👍🏾❤️
