  • Hi I am 40 (almost 41, ugh) and married with 2 young kids. I started my weight loss journey about 30 years ago... no seriously.. I have been struggling with my weight probably since my preteens and well.. i decided that 40 was it. i am doing it this time, I hired a personal trainer, and workout 7 days a week either with him or on my own (alternating days). I officially started THIS time on 8/19/13 (my wedding anniversary). So far I have lost about 13 pounds and i track every day... i would love to find some friends my age and in the same boat as me to support each other. I still have about 55 pounds to go to my goal weight. I don't want to be a size zero but a low to mid single digit size would be really nice. :)

    I'm 43 with 2 kids (6 and 4). I have a sedentary desk job and if I'm not on top of my game 99% of the time, the weight goes on or doesn't want to come off! Currently I"m on the "gain" cycle. I'd love some friends too!

    40 here--about to have my second kid in a couple weeks--the first is nearly 3. Been married 5 years--as soon as this baby's out of me I need about 2 months to get back to running and logging! If you can wait that long, add me! (I like to run 3-5 days/week, totaling about 20-30 mi/week.)

    Hey, I had my first at 40! Cheers to older moms! :drinker:
