I am very excited about my body's response to the Oxycise program. I did O! several years ago before I was 50 and before I went through menopause (I'm 54 now). I had GREAT results then.

In August 2007 I had my thyroid surgically removed and am now on Armour thyroid. Thyroid is VERY important for your body to run properly. About 3 weeks ago I did a total cleanse. I lost about 8.5 lbs. on the Cleanse and then promptly put several pounds back on. I briskly walk at least 5 x week for 30 minutes but haven't been able to get below 130 lbs. I remembered OXYCISE! I have all the videos/DVD's and I started all over again on March 1.

Since March 1 I have been doing O! for 15-30 min. each day. Today when I weighed I had lost 1.3 lbs. I'm actually below 130 lbs.! I would like to get somewhere between 120-125 lbs. I'll just do it each day with joy and gusto - thanks Jill!!

Good luck Melinda!
I'm in my 50's as well and I am in the process of starting over. I did Oxycise religiously 8 years ago. I was in great health and in great shape. I stopped for reasons I don't even remember not the least of which was my schedule. I only remember that Oxycise was the only program that made me feel good and look good. I am starting over this Saturday March 8, 2008. My goal is to lose 30 lbs and get back to a size 12. Wish me luck.

Welcome back, Spiritguide! Come post with us in the D2L (determined to lose) thread each day for extra support and accountability!

Glad you're doing so well, Melinda!

Hi loyal O-ers
I'm so glad to see women in their 50's..yeah..I'm almost there...48. I think our 50's will be smashing! We are working on it. I was thinking, Melinda..let's believe God that the thyroid issue will be as nothing and not an issue at all. We have a big God. I was excited to see you were down..fun!
I've done day 2 of O and my plan is to do it twice a day. I have been faithful with food and exercise, doing 8 miles a day on the treadmill to no avail for a long time. I feel like God brought this to my attention out of my desparation. Hi Spiritguide and Kelly and Heleen and whoever else is out there. I was shy to post but I might as well dive in. The water is always cold when you first dive in. So this should be fun! I haven't read past posts yet or about anyone. I need to.
Talk to you all later

Well, today I weighed and I was at 129 lbs. (still below 130). I know my body will always fluctuate, I just need to "stay the course". I feel so much better on Oxycise and know for certain that I am doing a wonderful thing for my body.

Every day is a new day to begin again...halleluia!

Melinda
