    42 here. I do feel better, not only physically but mentally. My attitude is clearer and more positive this time. Maybe it's because I'm older and don't care what anybody thinks anymore.

    Yeah I wish I had done this sooner, but what's done is done. I'm just glad I didn't wait another day.

    Sure hope eating better and exercising helps me feel better, at least like I use too just a few short years ago where I never worried about my health.

    I had a baby at 40 and the lack of sleep really aged me. Tired of being borderline this and borderline that.

    There are a lot of 40-somethings on this site and they are so inspirational. I'm 45 and started trying to get healthy just before I turned 44. I've commented more than once on threads here written by younger people, encouraging them to stick with the health and fitness plan they've started so they don't spend years thinking they look bad, the way I did. I let my weight hold me back from so much! The good thing is that I've done it now rather than never, and I look better than I did when I was in college. And I still have goals to reach, so I know I'll keep looking better and feeling better.

    Starting now at 36 in hopes of improving from here. As a woman, I hear your 40s can be pretty freakin' sweet so I want to make sure to get the most bangs for my buck.

    Some great inspiration here!

    I know losing the weight won't get me to the body of a 25 year old but am hoping I can still feel great.

    Anyone feeling great in their 40's?

    Don't you believe it, I'm 43 and started this journey at 42. With the right exercise you can easily get the body of a 25 year old. :happy:

    I'm 44, and would give the version of myself from my 30s and possibly even late 20s a run for their money! I eat better and work out smarter than I did when I was younger, it makes all the difference...

    There has been a giant robot terrorizing my town, how much do you charge for removal?

    I'll be 43 soon and I feel better now and sexier than I did in my 20's. Definitely more confident. Age is just a number. Sometimes people think I'm younger than I am cuz I'm such a goofball so embrace those 40's and beyond. :D
