Hi, I'm new. I started this yesterday.
LIke it says, I am 40 yrs old, and I'd like to lose 40 lbs.
I've never done anything like this before. I looked around at some of the posts and feel like I belong already.
I hope to make some supportive friends on here and accomplish this weight loss before my 41st birthday, which is in January. Maybe? Even if I get close, I know I'll have better habits and I'm in serious need of a lifestyle change!
Thanks for reading! Please feel free to add me as a friend. Hope I can be someone's inspiration too

Sounds like you have a reasonable goal - that's a good start!
I'm 48 and am only looking at 10 pounds at a time. It's too overwhelming for me to look at more.
I'd be happy to support you in the process.
I live in Alaska, so my time zone is a bit off from many people on the site. But that doesn't mean I'm not paying attention!
Good luck!0 -
