[quote=Anonymous]Hi, I’m 39 and I am finally out of place in my time and my job that I have time to really focus in on the health that I somewhat ignored the last 10 years. I used to be so athletic. And now I am 20 to 40 pounds overweight, depending how you look at it. I have lost 16 in the last year. With the new time that I have, I feel really motivated to hit the gym and lift. I’m hearing advice online that feels conflicting. Like women at 39 should not be working out hard because it raises their cortisol and makes them retain weight. Now that I am here & am so motivated person ever (like the most motivated person ever), what should I set up to lose weight, get back to my athletic body? I’m not usually rules based, but what “rules” do i set up for an experiment in my health? These aren’t the rules I want, but the options to start with?! This is all the stuff I’m hearing… 1. The trendy treadmill thing? 2. Walking an hour a day? 3. Dance it off? 4. Don’t focus on workout, only eating? 5. Protein! 6. No sugar 7. Prescription (which I don’t think I can afford) 8. Don’t worry about it, just relax. Smile and love yourself. Eat bread and enjoy life. 9. Take estrogen, reduce stress, anything to bring down you cortisol and balance your hormones 10. What else??
