    Yesterday, I walked an hour in the morning and 2 hours in the evening after work. Today, I didn't feel like working out this morning, but will most likely continue the 2 hour elliptical walk in the evening.How about you?

    I'm 43 in the last 3 months I've lost 30 pounds. Finally out of the 200's! I still have 50-55 pounds to go, but I will get there.

    Is this an established group? I'm over 40 and could really use a group for encouragement and support.

    Feel free to add me. I'm over 40.

    The pounds seem to be so much harder to lose now!

    I was so happy to see this thread, as I was specifically looking to connect with other women in my age range. I'm 44, live in Florida (grew up in Michigan), and have struggled with my weight my entire life (like so many of us, right?). I finally hit my goal weight this year and it's still a constant battle. As soon as I get a little "comfortable" I gain, which is where I find myself now... needing to drop a few again. I have found that logging my food helps, but also when I'm on here connecting with other people I'm not putting as much bad food in my mouth. Please feel free to add me.

    Harder as we get older. I have Menopause and I am not fooling myself.

    RoseTheWarrior - how do I join? I clicked on the page link and it says "join this group to view its contents," but there's no "join" link.

    Turned 40 in April. I have lost 20 lbs since having my son but have 35 more to go. I'll worry about the next goal once I hit this one. :-) all can feel free to add me. I need to stay on track and am looking for accountability as well.
