North Shore Women's Journal, http://www.nswj.com: "When I hit 41, I realized I was no longer able to get control over my weight. I was up three sizes from just a year earlier, and nothing in my closet fit anymore. I couldn't figure out what had changed so drastically. I always struggled, but not like this", reports Alice Greene, Lifestyle Fitness Coach in the December issue of the North Shore Women's Journal, http://www.NSWJ.com.

At 42 I took action. I had to do something, and somehow I knew that this time had to be different. I couldn't just join a gym, hire a trainer for a year, or pretend to use my Stairmaster in the basement. These approaches had never ended up working. Somewhere deep inside of me was a new resolve to do what I had never done before. I found an inner determination to exercise for me, to do it my way at home, and to get committed no matter how long it took to get back into my clothes. I was disgusted with my body, and I wanted one last chance to feel good about my body again before it was too late. And that is just what I did!... (Continue reading)
