Su entrenadora Michelle MacDonald la ayudó a bajar 55 libras y tonificar todo su cuerpo en un periodo de tres años.“Cuando comencé nunca creí que llegaría a donde estoy. Sólo quería recuperar mi salud y dejar los medicamentos. Espero que todos sigan eligiendo crecer, aprender a amarse, a cuidarse y atreverse a soñar otra vez”, dice aseguró la “abuelita fitness”.

My tips to help you get started: 1. Really take stock of the things you want to change . Be clear in your mind what habits you want to change. Write those things down. Make a clear list! 2. Write out another list of the new habits you want to master to create a new you. Be clear. Be simple. Changing your life isn’t as complicated as we make it out to be. To make big changes we need to create new daily habits. That’s it. End of story. Focus on the habits. ?? 3. Get a nutrition plan and an exercise plan that you can follow for the long term. Be careful of fad diets that eliminate major food groups. You want this to be sustainable. Anyone can lose 10 lbs for a couple of months. You will want to be one of the few that transform for the long haul. That’s where the real benefits start racking up! ?? 4. Have an attitude of gratitude for the small successes. The more you can focus on what you’re doing right, the more confident and energized you’ll be to keep on going. You can’t beat yourself over the finish line folks. You’ve got to learn to truly love yourself unconditionally and keep on encouraging ourselves to grow in the right direction. ❤️ . Happy Friday! Sounds out, I got my guns out! With love, Joan XO . . . . . #fitover70 #agingbackwards #oldladygains #biceps #girlswithmuscle #girlswholift #wellness #wisdom

Don’t get discouraged by how far you have to go. On the right I was 3 months into this journey and I just took it one day at a time. I honestly had no idea that I would end up where I am today. I just wanted to be off my medication. I can remember that getting down to the 150s was a pretty impossible dream. When I finally reached 156 lbs in the summer of 2017, I was worried that if I lost any more weight I would look flabby and frail. Michelle asked me to trust her and just be patient with the process. A year later, 2018, I was in the 140s pretty comfortably, and still seeing some exciting changes. I thought that would be as good as it gets. ? Now here I am yet another year later, and comfortably in the 130s. Michelle now tells me that she plans for me to be in the 120s by next fall, just by continuing slowly the way we’ve been going. That still seems impossible to me but I now know to just trust the process. ??? . Have a wonderful holiday season everyone. Love yourself enough to make the changes you need to have the health you desire. ?????? . #transformation #diet #weightlosstips #weightloss #fitover70.

I never thought the seventies were going to end up like this! Being in videos in a gym in Tulum Mexico wearing @womensbest ! ?? I am sincerely grateful for all the moments leading up to this. The journey has been long and it’s not over. I have endured many hiccups and frustrations. I have battled fatigue, anger, self-doubt and fear. I have learned to love more, to embrace my body, to be open minded and to push forwards. I hope you all believe that my journey can be anybody’s journey. ??? I did not do gymnastics or any serious sport when I was young. I battled weight most of my adult life. I was seriously overweight for the past twenty years before starting all of this. I have had a hysterectomy when I was in my forties. I am not on Hormone Replacement Therapy. I do not eliminate any food groups. I train 5 x week for about 75 minutes with weights trying to get better each week. I do cardio 4-7 days a week for about 15-30 minutes depending on what my coach wants me to do. I take a few supplements like creatine and protein powder and fish oil but not much else. . Michelle and I will be doing a live video on my instagram tonight at 8 pm EST ???? to answer questions so please join me! With love Joan ? .

Plate pushes…??? . I never could have done these when I was 200 lbs, but now, 3 years later, here I am learning new things. Some other new skills I’m learning this trip to @tulumstrengthclub : 1. How to barbell squat 2. How to do a Nordic drop progression . If I can send out one message to you all, it’s to stay open minded, do not be afraid to try new things, and don’t be afraid to push yourselves hard, get sweaty, pant your heart out, and make mistakes. ???. It’s been liberating to develop a “I can do it” attitude in my seventies. Replacing a negative, “failure” mindset with a positive mindset has made all the difference to my life. For you younger folks out there, just think what you could do with your own lives by getting that strong mindset working for you now! ?? . I’ll be in NYC and New Jersey this weekend. Any good gyms you can recommend? With love, Joan xo . Knee sleeves are by @howmuch_yabench Leggings by @womensbest . #legs #fitoverseventy #agingbackwards.
