Hi, I'm 45, will be 46 in February. I've gained 10 pounds since turning 40. I'd like to eat healthier, get stronger and have more fun! I won't complain if I lose a few pounds/inches.

Please add me and let's keep each other motivated!

Just turned 41 and still forget that I'm over the age of 25...LOL

I just joined MFP and joined a group for people starting Jillian Michaels 30-Day Shred this week so I'm pretty excited! I did log what I thought was a good breakfast this morning (except for the coffee) and boy was I surprised. I'm going to plan and measure my meals...and only have a salad for lunch today lol.

Don't have any friends yet, but would love it if any of you could add me to your list! I was down from 172lbs to 134lbs last January, had a rough year and gained 25lbs. My plan is to make daily activity a healthy habit, eat a cleaner and more proportionate diet, count myself as worthy of my own attention and to stay married to these ideals! Me and my goals will not be separated again!!!

hi there....I will be 46 in May.....I've been on MFP since January 2012 and I will be counting calories and logging and weighing for the rest of my life.....to a certain extent anyway....here are my stats:
SW: 172lb (January 2012)
LW: 120lb (February 2013)
CW: 140lb
GW: 125lb
My lowest weight was in February 2013, just over a year after I joined MFP....I was so happy....everyone else said I looked too thin because I lose weight faster off the top half of my body than the lower half (i.e. hips, thighs, butt)...I was "skinny fat" because I hadn't really done any lifting to speak of....I stared in with lifting weights in June 2013, and the weight has climbed back on since then....I've also gone through a few periods of not being as dedicated and strict with myself as I should be....anyway, I'm trying to get back down to 125lb but I keep yo-yoing up and down with the same 6-7lb for over a year now.....it's so frustrating!!! anywhere between 136-142lb....arrghhhh...I guess I will just have to keep going and not give up.....good luck to everyone!!!:)

Staying fit in our 40's requires us to be more intentional with our health and fitness, but it is totally worth it for the quality of life it provides. I ran my first 50 mile ultra marathon for my 41st birthday 2 months ago. I use this site to stay on track and accountable.

Just turned 49 last month and relatively new to MFP so would like motivated friends. The more the better, so anyone interested add me and i will add back.

I will be 42 in March. I am a working mom and have gained a couple pounds every year until I am now at my upper limit of comfortable. Looking to lose 10-15 pounds *the super hard ones. Feel free to add me, I also keep my diary open.
