  • I am 64 years old. I have been sat at a computer for all my life. Exercise I never had time for.
    Now I am feeling the effects of being unfit.
    I am trying to make changes to my life to get fit and lose weight.

    Hi Maria, what a lovely inspiring video to watch I used to belong to Slimming World got to my target weight at 75 and kept it off pretty much, we lived in Spain and I used to swim everyday and walk as well. I am now 89 have put a bit of weight on but at my age I am quite happy with it. I haven’t got much of an appetite have porridge for breakfast with oat milk, brioche roll and cheese for lunch and usually have a small meal at night but I am partial to chocolate as I have a sweet tooth. Looking forward to watching your SW vlogs.❤️❤️

    Doing this right with you Maria! I love your honesty here. Thank you for giving me a kick up the bum. You are right that exercise is key to staying healthy and active. I started in the 80s with Jane Fonda and going for the burn, complete with legwarmers! 🙈 Now I am a big fan of Christina Dorner on RUclips, fantastic workouts to suit all levels but my favourite is step. I am overhauling my diet as well, I have gained so much weight since menopause (I am 55.) We have got this! 💪 Xx

    I am not looking to loose weight even though I am really over weight,I have been fat since I was a baby 14 pounds at 10 weeks,now in 4 days I will be 80,and weigh the same as I did at 20,I have never dieted.What I would like is to become fitter,I worked as pastry chef till COVID closed down the restaurant I worked at,I was 75 then,so when we could go back to work I was close to 78 so who was hiring me then?I went from a very physical job to doing very little,so I feel I need to get going,thank you for RUclips recommendations I will look into them,and hopefully get into a bit better shape.😊

    Great your back on track. I too have started today to do healthy eating/slimming world by myself at home not on the app. I’m 61 female. 5’ 5”ish and a stone lighter than yourself. I had a walk this morning and half hour cutting my grass. I want to loose weight for my sons wedding in June 2026. I’m giving myself plenty of time. I take my grandson to school, so when I drop him off I aim to walk round the block which I think takes half an hour, anything helps. I’m not a bad weather Walker 😅. I even made a trip to my Lidl to stock up on fruit. So far today I’ve been good. I hope we can do this. Can I ask does your hubbie mind you over weight? Mine likes to get a dig in when he can, he hates fat people. He’s lucky he’s six foot and like a lamp post… here’s to a new us dare I say sexy in our sixties… xx
