“You are such a committed loyal person to other people, why can’t you commit to doing this for yourself?” This hit home for me. You are such an inspiration.
What I have learned as a 70 year old woman is that the one and only thing that will provide you the ability to loose weight and not be hungry all the time is PROTEIN. Until you incorporate that as a daily part of your diet it is very hard to loose weight. My son got married a year ago I was 113 lb and today I am 127lb. I watch what i eat but I slowed down on the protein. I go to the health club every day and spend 45 min at each class. Pilates 2 days per week strength training the other 5. I am committed to exercise. in the wedding pictures I noted my posture was poor. The pilates is helping.
Words cannot describe my admiration and gratitude for all your incredible contributions to our community!!!! Your honesty and wisdom always gives me a boost to be a better to myself! It’s so easy for me to make sacrifices for others, but difficult for me to make my own needs a priority. I’m going to watch this video weekly, as a reminder to take care of myself and my health! Thank you for being such an incredible inspiration!!!🙏🏻
Tammy, everything you say in this video is so accurate! I'm 54 and have been postmenopausal x5 years, and my lifestyle nearly matches yours. Thank you for sharing this information. Anyone can achieve these results, and yes, dedication is the key to long-term success! I love you so much! ❤
When I was ca 3 stone overweight & trying many diets with no permanent success someone said I should stop dieting and change my eating habits. She said the usual: eat breakfast like a King, lunch like a Queen and evening meal (no later than 6pm) like a pauper, all healthy foods that I enjoy AND TO THINK THIN. So I bought a dress I liked in the size I wanted to be and tried it on once a week, gradually I was able to pull it up past my knees, then my hips and so on until I could eventually wear it!! To maintain this weight I continue eating this way and think thin, I find that makes a HUGE difference. Forgot to say that I was eating more food, especially protein YET was losing weight and inches, wonderful!!
Thanks for this video. You are not only a classy lady, but your decorated Christmas tree is soo tastefully decorated from what I can see in this video.
As someone who is very disciplined and has always taken my health seriously, it’s hard for me to understand those who don’t have that discipline. But certainly everyone does not. I try to tell others who ask how I am so focused, “why would I not want to look and feel my best?” We are all worth it!!
I can only echo what's been said over and over in the comments. You are such an INSPIRATION! I'm so grateful you take the time to share your journey and your experience which as not only been motivating, but saves me a lot of pain and disappointment. So thank you! Your "What I eat..." videos are most helpful to me, as you give me ideas I would not have thought of and since I'm new to this, it really helps me build "menu options". I'm sure they're probably not your most watched, but I do appreciate when you include them here and there! Merry Thanksgiving to You, Loudle, and the Doodles!❤
I don't think you realize how much of an inspiration. you are! I am on my weight loss journey and you have been so helpful with hearing your journey. Always good to see the doodle cameo - sweet Harley and Loula.
Thank you so much, Tammy, for this video! You have been my biggest inspiration to get back to consistently working out with weights and to figuring out and tracking my macros! I'm 61 and the weight just was being SO stubborn! Despite carnivore or keto, I saw you were having success doing what you're doing so I thought, if she can do it being postmenopausal then so can I! And I've lost 3 pound since starting seriously. Thats such a big deal, because I thought nothing would ever work! So I get what you're saying, seeing the results is what will keep us disciplined. Thank God for you, Tammy, and thank you SO MUCH for sharing everything with us! ❤️❤️😘😘
Tammy, I can’t thank you enough for doing this video. This is what an influencer can do to help other women. I’ve finally understood what your talking about, I think (lol), it’s protein and calories AND lifting heavy. I’m on board to be at my best by this time next year when I turn 66. Please, keep on doing this type of content (although I love all your beauty content) about food, weightlifting, becoming and staying strong.
We have the same schedule- my hubby is a Dr too, we wake up at 5:30 every day and I make him a smoothie to take to work and lunch! Most of the other wives think I am nuts to wake up with him and make him lunch!!!!! Some of the surgeons never eat lunch - very little time to grab food in a Dr.s lounge!!!! Once again, you look absolutely fabulous, 2024 is my year!!!! and my lucky number!!!!! "24"!!! Im ready!
I like your transparency. You are an inspiration to me. I wish I could be more disciplined. I like walking and working out on weights, I just lack the commitment to myself.
Lady, you nailed this!!!! You are absolutely correct in everything you said here!! I am 68 years old & weigh 105 lbs, (yes, I am short), I have no extra belly fat & feel better than I did at 30. I have been doing all the things you say for over 30 years & it's the only way. Loved how you demonstrated lifting weights...Yes!
You inspired me! Thank you I sat for weeks thinking I have to lose these 30 pounds, wondering how this macro thing worked. Had my physical in May was up 32 pounds, went home downloaded MyFitnessPal app for free. Played with all the settings, it calculated my calories, I only use the food diary to track my food, for free. I don’t exercise, really didn’t expect much to happen. I was shocked, lost 34 pounds, it just takes time ladies, don’t give up. It does work!
Tammy, I love this…. so REAL…. honest… and, of course sprinkled with your lovely personality ! I’m in this boat… my health ! I love tracking, too. And, I love your comment about “mindful” movement …. the goal is not to get hurt but build strength. You are just a terrific role model. Thank you !
Great video Tammy. You have imparted such wisdom I am 71 and I am truly inspired by you I absolutely love your attitude. You deserve to be proud of yourself, your accomplishment is truly amazing. You look more beautiful then ever!
Thank you Tammy. So totally agree with being careful in our exercise routine so not to get hurt. Additionally, I'd like to mention that slowing down, or better yet, quitting alcohol consumption will definitely help with the weight loss. I starter carnivore journey July 1st and find that it works perfectly for me. I used to hate meat and now I really want it. Loosing cravings and not being hungry between meals has been a great benefit. I learn so much from you!!!
I love your food philosophy! Your dedication to strength and health is an inspiration. I've been watching you for years and have so enjoyed your journey.
A health club talk on nutrition (emphasis on healthy aging) last week sparked something in me, and all of a sudden my eating habits have changed effortlessly for the better. This video is my next step … your answers are so reasonable. Thank you! Best take away: “You have to be able to participate in your journey.” 😘
“Enough talking about my butt!” 😂 I just adore you, CMT! Thank you for this video. I really enjoy when you do these types of videos related to health and fitness and food. And vlogs! Love love love! Have a happy thanksgiving with the family! ❤️
Thank you so much for the food update.; very, very grateful for your disciplined approach. PLEASE consider the exercise video. We would LOVE to see how you achieve your success.
And you look wonderful! I did Carnivore for 2 weeks and the weight just melted off. I now do whole foods, veggies, fruits etc. You were my inspiration! Thank you.💕
You’re such an inspiration! I’m working on rebuilding my strength from a surgery in May. I couldn’t lift weights for 3 months, but I’m back now and working on body recomp. Keep lifting Tammy!
Oh, my gosh! Excellent video. I really like when you go into this depth in detail!!!We need to be hit over the head numerous times!!! and hear this video. I know you get tired of making them and repeating yourself but I think that’s what it’s going to take. For me I’m intimidated by the macro calculations.😮I think I even heard yousay yes, it is difficult at the beginning …But I hope to conquer! lm getting ready to leave for Thailand on Saturday and I’m going to enjoy myself while on vacation and maybe start in January I think. I think the holidays are not a good time to start. I also do hot yoga for 75 minutes very difficult routines and I walk 3 miles on the days I don’t do yoga. And I don’t beat myself up either. I do have osteopenia. I’m 62 years old. And I’ve had a hip replacement, and I have left knee issues. If I could only lose 39 pounds like you did. Wow! I’m so impressed with you my dear Tammy. I am so impressed!! Love & Happy Thanksgiving to u & Lou & the girls!!& your family.
Tammy I love your common sense regarding your fitness and weight loss. You are a joy to watch and an inspiration. You look beautiful! Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
So very kind of you to help so many of us. You are a wonderful person. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. Know that I am so thankful for you. Love you girl.❤
Love watching your videos!! Imagine if you did one-on-one coaching. Wow!! I would sign up just to talk with you for 20-30 mins for motivation, inspiration or moral support!
You’re so inspiring Tammy. I’m in decent shape for 58, some would say very good shape, but I’ve worked at it. I’m not “lucky”. But it’s getting harder and I feel I need a regular program. I’m starting a plan like yours. It is a lifestyle for sure! A good one. 🥰
For the person who asked about arm numbness, I have the same issue and mine is absolutely due to bulging discs in my C spine, per the MRI that I had years ago. Be careful of your form or you will further damage your discs.
Great video Tammy. I don’t count macros, but I’m 71, last year I lost 25 lbs by doing intermittent fasting and eating in moderation. Im 5’7” 135 now and never felt better. I also walk almost every day and do weights 3 times a week. I used to eat so much bread. Now I only eat bread once in a while. I try not to eat sugar, but I will have that piece of cake if I’m at a party. I feel great and will continue this to maintain.
Love your video. Your healthy eating lifestyle makes total sense to me. I am 62 and pretty much have the same lifestyle eating habits. Thank you for sharing this great information . No cardio for me as well. My preferred fitness activity is yoga, palates and light weights. Having a healthy body and lifestyle is motivation in itself. Keep doing what you’re doing.❤
you are one of the most inspirational smart woman I have come across, thank you for sharing, I have learned alot from you and happy holidays to you and your family
You look awesome! Great job. I have been following since you started your health journey. But I never commented until these past few weeks. Happy Thanksgiving!
I love this Tammy! 😊❤You look absolutely fabulous! I had a similar experience in a different order. I was into intermittent fasting and lifted weights regularly -was fit but too slim-and needed to GAIN weight. In the process of learning and adhering to macros I recomped my body by adding 20 pound of body weight (mostly muscle!) and look so much better than I ever did before! I’m 60 and feel great!😀
Hey Tammy, I’ve been working out with Cheryl also. I love her videos and you’re an inspiration as well. I am trying to build muscle in my c section tummy, 32 yrs ago, ugh. It’s tough but I’m praying that lifting weights 5 days a week, 20 mins every morning. I’m not sure if that is adequate but I sure feel better after25 days of working out. Happy Thanksgiving 💕
So much good advice! I am down over 50 lbs (three years work) in my late 60’s following this exact same plan…PROTEIN is the key to satiety which curbs the cravings! When my arthritic knees allow me, I walk and do strength training and my favorite new ‘sport’ is boxing…great cardio! TY for this video! (I’d love to know how you get that much protein each day)
I always enjoy your videos but this one? This one sent me to my recumbent stationary bike before the video was even over! You inspire me so much. Your kind, common sense, no bs message gets through! Cheers to a loving, joyful Thanksgiving to you and your family. 💖💖
Great video!! 🥳 Hearing you talk about YOUR journey really motivates me! I love that your practices are scientifically sound. And it doesn’t hurt that you’re articulate, smart and no-nonsense yet not condescending. 👍🏼💖 Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family! 🦃🧡🤎🧡
Hi Tammy, This was wonderful! I totally agree with protein dominating your diet. I tried Keto and although I lost weight, I also lost a lot of muscle and started to feel very dough-y. Increasing protein has made a world of difference! Thank you for the very informative video. Happy Thanksgiving!
Hello again Ms Tammy, you are truly an inspiration to me. I am 56 and have also been diagnosed with hip osteopenia 😞 like you, my mum suffered and ended up in a wheelchair after multiple fractures, she lost her mobility. I am determined for that not to happen to me too. The gym I visited do not seem to be fully aware of the fragility and modifications needed when one has osteopenia. I do not know where to begin! To top things up I live in a country that I'm not too fluent in their language, so that does not help matters either. An exercise video from you would be a AMAZING! Please do make one 🙏
Tammy thank you for sharing with us. You are such an inspiration to our age group. You rock it and I am so grateful you share. I appreciate what you do.. Happy Thanksgiving.
💯% with everything you shared! Exactly what I did to lose 22lbs. I don’t workout in the gym (for me less time consuming to do it at home since am still working). I plan to enjoy this thanksgiving meal today and tomorrow will go back to my routine. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Thank you for replying to the first question about pms 🌷 it’s the one I asked when I was so mad at myself for not being able to have a strong will to manage these cravings .. your insights are very helpful. I’m gonna work out the macros and stick to the measuring scale ..Thank you ❤
Hello Tammy, I fasted for several months and I stopped exercise too. It was a mistake because I lost some muscle... Now, I prefer eating healthy almost all my meals and doing some exercises regularly. This suits me more! I pretty much agree on discipline. I reduce my doses and don't eat heavy things in the evening... Congratulations on this Christmas tree which I find really very successful!👌💜 Byebye, Arnaud👋
I've been following a British gal named Melissa Neill. I'm on week 6 of her 6 week program. The scale hasn't moved much, but I have definitely lost inches. Counting macros is easy once you get the hang of it.
Really enjoyed this video. You are such an inspiration, and it's so sad to hear that there are so many critics. And, thank you for letting us know about American Dream Nut Butters. Love them! 🙂
What is the best and easiest way to track 10,000 steps daily? I currently no not own any fitness devices. Thank you for keeping things real and helping us women be are best versions of ourselves!
Happy Thanksgiving Tammy. I am thankful for you. You are so helpful to your viewers. Your channel delivers advice, information, inspiration, and love. Please know how much you mean to me. ❤
One of the best ways to start is by tracking normal eating (for a day or even a week). Once you see how much you're eating (it's quite a surprise!), then cut out 200 calories and do that for a month. See where you're at and if you're not at your goal, cut out 300 cal. and add easy exercise (walking etc). I think most people want the quick fix, but it's a long haul to change your eating habits. Love seeing the puppy to wants pets and attention ;-)
I am doing well to lift 5 to 10 Lb. Weights! I am working on my somewhat saggy arms, I am finally on a schedule working out at least 3 to 4 day a week. I am also into massage , helping these arms!
Thanks for the great video. Since you workout very early in the morning, could you share whether you have a pre-workout snack/meal and if you do what might that be?
Such a great video ! Very helpful, thank you for sharing your info and tips on your weight loss journey 😊Now go and enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner ! Happy Thanksgiving
Tammy I so enjoy your videos and hearing about your fitness journey! I feel like we agree on so many things. Discipline and protein are so important. I also could easily eat the same meals every day if I liked what I ate and it kept me healthy. Please keep these videos coming and forget about the critics. You know they will always be there no matter what you choose to present in your videos. P.S. I watched this video while on the treadmill😅
Ms. Tammy you are truly my inspiration ❤️you say in the beginning you are the same meals every day so that you knew you were getting your protein, can you list those meals & the protein? Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving 🍁 your home looks beautiful 🎄love to the kids🐾🐾
I had a moment back in the beginning of May; my bones were hurting; my arthritis in my knees was so painful; I found another diet was more beneficial for me; I have just entered my 70's failed at so many diets why this time its different I guess it the reality what old age may be like; I did not want that; thus far I have lost 32 lbs; feeling well; been shopping in my closet since I tend to have the classics in all sizes; also started exercising; especially weight training; I think you plus a few other influencers who started diets were my cheerleaders.
Hello……just discovered your channel and subscribed! Watched a few of your videos and in love with them! Have lots to catch up on! Wonderful finding you channel. Regards from Palm Springs, CA. - Sonia
Love your tree ❤️🌲🙏I follow Cee I do her youtube vids 3 times a week and it's the only thing that has worked for me in building strength and nice muscle tone
Hi Tammy…would you mind sharing what your average monthly weight loss was until you reached your goal. I’m a few years older and plan to follow a similar approach to get to my goal…I was just curious what your average weekly/monthly loss was during this time. I know that patience is key and persistence is even more important. Thanks for sharing…it is so helpful.
Thank you, just to note , a pound of fat and a pound of muscle still weigh the same -a pound, however the fat isn't doing anything beneficial really , BUT the muscle is !!! thanks for the inspiration , you look amazing !!!
Muscle weighs more than fat because it's denser, said Joel Seedman, Ph. D., neuromuscular physiologist and owner of Advanced Human Performance in Suwanee, Ga. If you hold a fistful of muscle, it will weigh more than a fistful of fat because you technically have more compact tissue in your hand
“You are such a committed loyal person to other people, why can’t you commit to doing this for yourself?” This hit home for me. You are such an inspiration.

Thank you Tammy . . . appreciate all this info. You look great! I need to get started and no excuses. Happy Thanksgiving!!

So very kind of you to help so many of us. You are a wonderful person. Have a blessed Thanksgiving. Know that I am so thankful for you. Love you girl.❤
You are an inspiration. You got me going with my “menopausal” weight loss journey. So far 15 pounds down, 10 more to go :)
Thank you for your honesty in sharing your journey. Glad to hear you feel great because you look amazing!
Thank you so much!
Love watching your videos!! Imagine if you did one-on-one coaching. Wow!! I would sign up just to talk with you for 20-30 mins for motivation, inspiration or moral support!

When my arthritic knees allow me, I walk and do strength training and my favorite new ‘sport’ is boxing…great cardio! TY for this video! (I’d love to know how you get that much protein each day)
I always enjoy your videos but this one? This one sent me to my recumbent stationary bike before the video was even over! You inspire me so much. Your kind, common sense, no bs message gets through! Cheers to a loving, joyful Thanksgiving to you and your family. 💖💖
Thank you for the honesty of diet and exercise! You Nailed it! 😊
I so love your attitude! Your love for yourself and your health is awesome!! Thank you for this video!! 😊
Thank you. Yes please post your exercises. You are the only one I trust. I’m so inspired by you. Gracias. Besos
And I don’t care about negative comments. ❤
Loved this video! You are wonderful! An inspiration!
Great video!! 🥳 Hearing you talk about YOUR journey really motivates me! I love that your practices are scientifically sound. And it doesn’t hurt that you’re articulate, smart and no-nonsense yet not condescending. 👍🏼💖
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family! 🦃🧡🤎🧡
Hi Tammy, This was wonderful! I totally agree with protein dominating your diet. I tried Keto and although I lost weight, I also lost a lot of muscle and started to feel very dough-y. Increasing protein has made a world of difference! Thank you for the very informative video. Happy Thanksgiving!
Have you ever heard Justine Bateman talk about aging? It was so interesting to me. You reminded me of her awesome attitude!
Hello again Ms Tammy, you are truly an inspiration to me. I am 56 and have also been diagnosed with hip osteopenia 😞 like you, my mum suffered and ended up in a wheelchair after multiple fractures, she lost her mobility. I am determined for that not to happen to me too. The gym I visited do not seem to be fully aware of the fragility and modifications needed when one has osteopenia. I do not know where to begin! To top things up I live in a country that I'm not too fluent in their language, so that does not help matters either. An exercise video from you would be a AMAZING! Please do make one 🙏
Tammy thank you for sharing with us. You are such an inspiration to our age group. You rock it and I am so grateful you share. I appreciate what you do.. Happy Thanksgiving.
💯% with everything you shared! Exactly what I did to lose 22lbs. I don’t workout in the gym (for me less time consuming to do it at home since am still working). I plan to enjoy this thanksgiving meal today and tomorrow will go back to my routine. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Love your videos so much i can't see this right now so i saved it for later, common sense, informative, inspiring
Thank you for replying to the first question about pms 🌷 it’s the one I asked when I was so mad at myself for not being able to have a strong will to manage these cravings .. your insights are very helpful. I’m gonna work out the macros and stick to the measuring scale ..Thank you ❤
This is a great video and everything I Needed to hear, especially today. Thank you Tammy❤
Hello Tammy,
I fasted for several months and I stopped exercise too. It was a mistake because I lost some muscle...
Now, I prefer eating healthy almost all my meals and doing some exercises regularly. This suits me more!
I pretty much agree on discipline. I reduce my doses and don't eat heavy things in the evening...
Congratulations on this Christmas tree which I find really very successful!👌💜
Byebye,
Arnaud👋
❤ Man I’m glad you make videos! There is some really good info in this video ❤️
I've been following a British gal named Melissa Neill. I'm on week 6 of her 6 week program. The scale hasn't moved much, but I have definitely lost inches. Counting macros is easy once you get the hang of it.
Really enjoyed this video. You are such an inspiration, and it's so sad to hear that there are so many critics. And, thank you for letting us know about American Dream Nut Butters. Love them! 🙂
What is the best and easiest way to track 10,000 steps daily? I currently no not own any fitness devices. Thank you for keeping things real and helping us women be are best versions of ourselves!
Happy Thanksgiving Tammy. I am thankful for you. You are so helpful to your viewers. Your channel delivers advice, information, inspiration, and love. Please know how much you mean to me. ❤
What a great video Tammy! A lot if good info! You really are an inspiration to a lot of us older gals! Happy Thanksgiving! 🥰🥰🥰
One of the best ways to start is by tracking normal eating (for a day or even a week). Once you see how much you're eating (it's quite a surprise!), then cut out 200 calories and do that for a month. See where you're at and if you're not at your goal, cut out 300 cal. and add easy exercise (walking etc). I think most people want the quick fix, but it's a long haul to change your eating habits.
Love seeing the puppy to wants pets and attention ;-)
Thank you so much…great info. Happy Thanksgiving
Thank you Tammy for all of your information and tip. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family.
Love your hair and do. The darker streak down the middle is gorg. 🎉 The macro diet is so complex for me. I need a coach.
Loved this video. Happy Thanksgiving Tammy. Hope you have a great day!
I am doing well to lift 5 to 10 Lb. Weights! I am working on my somewhat saggy arms, I am finally on a schedule working out at least 3 to 4 day a week. I am also into massage , helping these arms!
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Thanks for the great video. Since you workout very early in the morning, could you share whether you have a pre-workout snack/meal and if you do what might that be?
Such a great video ! Very helpful, thank you for sharing your info and tips on your weight loss journey 😊Now go and enjoy your Thanksgiving dinner ! Happy Thanksgiving
Brilliant!! Thank you Thank you!
The more criticism I get, the more it gives me a stronger urge to succeed 🎉🎉🎉
Don't let people live rent free in our head🎉
Tammy
I so enjoy your videos and hearing about your fitness journey! I feel like we agree on so many things. Discipline and protein are so important. I also could easily eat the same meals every day if I liked what I ate and it kept me healthy.
Please keep these videos coming and forget about the critics. You know they will always be there no matter what you choose to present in your videos.
P.S. I watched this video while on the treadmill😅
I love City Lash!! It has made my eyelashes fuller than Revitalash. I still use Revitalash in conjunction with City Lash.
Ms. Tammy you are truly my inspiration ❤️you say in the beginning you are the same meals every day so that you knew you were getting your protein, can you list those meals & the protein?
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving 🍁 your home looks beautiful 🎄love to the kids🐾🐾
Very good advice. Thanks so much for the inspiration ❤
I had a moment back in the beginning of May; my bones were hurting; my arthritis in my knees was so painful; I found another diet was more beneficial for me; I have just entered my 70's failed at so many diets why this time its different I guess it the reality what old age may be like; I did not want that; thus far I have lost 32 lbs; feeling well; been shopping in my closet since I tend to have the classics in all sizes; also started exercising; especially weight training; I think you plus a few other influencers who started diets were my cheerleaders.
You are truly such an inspiration. I have such respect ❤️
Thank you so much 😀
This was really nice. Please share a week or two of meal plans.
I just love you, you are beautiful and smart. thank you for your advice, and all your videos, love them. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU AND YOURS.
Thank you so much!
Tammy ..your such an inspiration ❤
Hello……just discovered your channel and subscribed! Watched a few of your videos and in love with them! Have lots to catch up on! Wonderful finding you channel. Regards from Palm Springs, CA. - Sonia
Thank you! For this video, Tammy❤
Love your tree ❤️🌲🙏I follow Cee I do her youtube vids 3 times a week and it's the only thing that has worked for me in building strength and nice muscle tone
Hi Tammy…would you mind sharing what your average monthly weight loss was until you reached your goal. I’m a few years older and plan to follow a similar approach to get to my goal…I was just curious what your average weekly/monthly loss was during this time. I know that patience is key and persistence is even more important. Thanks for sharing…it is so helpful.
I ordered the shirt you are wearing! I plan on wearing for Christmas so beautiful!
I love it… is it true to size?
Thank you, just to note , a pound of fat and a pound of muscle still weigh the same -a pound, however the fat isn't doing anything beneficial really , BUT the muscle is !!! thanks for the inspiration , you look amazing !!!
Muscle weighs more than fat because it's denser, said Joel Seedman, Ph. D., neuromuscular physiologist and owner of Advanced Human Performance in Suwanee, Ga. If you hold a fistful of muscle, it will weigh more than a fistful of fat because you technically have more compact tissue in your hand
