    @kandfj...I love it!! I'm a big accountability person as well. Knowing that others are watching really helps me stay on track. Glad it helped you today. You are not bound by that 3-day thing! You can totally do this!!

    I've never added friends... How does it affect mfp? Sorry for the naive question!
    It doesn't effect it at all. Either you have people sharing exercise and/or motivation on your newsfeed or you don't. No big deal.

    45 right here. I joined MFP back in 2013 and lost 30 lbs. Kept it off for three years but my bad habits returned and I gained them back. So here I am again because I know it works. Down 15 pounds and I think I’ll be alright with just a couple more gone. Where I was after losing those 30 pounds was unrealistic to maintain. But MAN these last few pounds are hard!! I’ll say it’s taken me longer this time so I’ve learned to be more patient. Feel free to add me also!

    I'm here, 47, with about 25-30 pounds to go (I've already lost 19) - would love more friends my age. Feel free to send a friend request! Let's do this!!!
  • Well, I'm 47 and have been here for almost 2 years. Lost 52 pounds last year then took a break from it all and gained back 16 pounds. I am working at getting that back off for good and being a healthier fitter Grammy :) Feel free to add me ladies.

    43, UK based, weightlifting fan (premature menopause)...I eat more than most, because I do not have a desk job...walk, cycle, swim and sometimes run (the knees won't allow me much nowadays)...add me if you want more middle aged fitness pals! Oh I have around 30-35 lbs to lose still...

    Hello everyone my name is Christy. I am 40, soon to be 41. I have a bit more weight to lose, closer to 140. I lose 100lbs a few years ago and I have gained most of it back. This time it seems to be a little harder. So I have added some vitamins to my daily routine. What are you doing differently this time around, from when you was younger ( if you have done this before) . Would love some more friends for support and just to bounce extra ideas off of.
    40 and fabulous
    We got this
    Thanks for your time
