Women over 40 who want to lose weight, support and motivate each other.

Turned 44 this week and I am looking to add more friends to help me keep motivated. I log everyday and would like to have pals willing to do more that just like my posts. I am looking for accountability buddies. I need to lose 60 pounds. I have only lost 9. Long road but I know I can do it. I would love to have some support and be able to give some back as well. This journey is hard but with great support the sky's the limit! ( Women over 40 only please).

Thanks!

Same here! I'm 47 and lost 50lbs several years ago. I'm now trying to get the 15lbs of winter weight off that I put on recently. You can add me. It's nice giving and getting encouragement!!

42 here! trying desperately to lose 25-30lbs. last week was the first week ive hit the gym in a LONG time...years! went every day, until i started feeling exhaustion from doing 45 mins on elliptical daily. i skipped yesterday, and ended up overdoing it with the cals. but at least i felt better energy wise!

ah, today is another day and not losing sight of my goal! im adding all of you, so pls add me!! i need supportive MFP friends.

Soon to be 46. I joined a gym for the first time in my life two years ago and have lost 30 pounds. Ideally, I would like to lose another 10. Pleased with the physical changes, but still struggle with the food portion of the equation. Feel free to add!

Am 45 - would appreciate some fellow 40s support.
One month in, have lost 10 pounds, have 20 pounds more to go - aiming to do it slowly and for ever!
Log every day, and am on weight watchers. Both are helping.

Hiya - another 40+ here. Need to lose 70lb but will take it in baby steps. I'm still blaming baby weight - but the "baby" is turning 3 years old this week

Thanks everyone!! We can do this!! Life gets in the way and it is ok. Lets keep it real and enjoy the ride!!
I was diagnosed with diabetes 3 years ago. Now I am a pre diabetic. Scary stuff. I do a lot of research and have tried everything. I know what works for me. Was an over eater ( was because I had to go to counseling to work on that). Portion control is key and moving my body is a must. Feel free to add me. I will be adding all of you soon!

Food portions are my weakness. I have to step it up. I have been on this plateau too long!
