    Hi,

    I am 46. I log daily and keep an open diary. Feel free to add me.

    Good luck.

    Groovy, I have to say.... everytime I see you post something in the forums I think to myself... "Wow she is pretty!" Had to share since I seen you again... you certainly don't look like you are close to being in your 40's!

    I'm so stealing this. It will have to be four tens, though, since I'm 41...

    I'm 42, and been at this about a month. Have 2 kids 12 yo boy with autism, and 9 yo girl and a wonderful wife who is joining me on the journey, but much more shy than I. I hail from New England and also have had type 2 diabetes if that is a struggle for anyone too. Anyone on a similar journey, feel free to add me.

    Good Morning, My name is Juliana and I am 46. I have had a hard time losing weight for the last 18 years since I put it on. I have started focusing on my fitness and inches lost instead of the number on the scale because those things are things I can control. I can push myself to do something harder today than I did yesterday. I can increase my steps or cardio minutes each day. I can add strength training in. I can lose inches. I would love to have you as a workout partner. I look for people to push me each day. To challenge me to do something new and different. Tomorrow, I will walk/run my first 5k. For the longest time, I wanted to do a 5k but could not run the entire thing so I didn't. I finally decided that I don't care how I look. I can walk the part I need to walk and I can run the part I can run and it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks. I will reduce my total time each time I participate in one. That is my new goal.
