I have never been a big fan of revealing my age. I would never tell people and just leave there guesses in silence.  I didn't like hearing it. Recently I turned 47... Ohhh I said it. Still don't like to hear it! This past summer when I turned "that age" it hit  me pretty hard! I kept thinking that I was too old to workout anymore, and no matter what, my healthy journey is over. (After 11 yrs)  I wallowed in this for about a year and ended up putting 20#s on! Yikes!! It was literally like I had the angel on shoulder and the devil on the other. I was so unhappy with myself and wanted to get on track soooo badly, but truly thought I just couldn't do it anymore. No injuries or anything just a very wrong mindset that i allowed to give a haven place to. It almost defeated me. I just kept telling myself I can do this!! Back and forth back and forth! Well guess what? Yep the angel finally put her foot down and said enough is enough!!!  I decided to join dietbet and have lost the weight and tasted the sweetness of victory!! IN YOUR FACE YOU COMPLACENT DEVIL!! 

I still don't like to talk about my age but I won't be tripped up by it anymore.
