Who is working to be fit at fourty

todaystuesday

My 40th birthday is looming around the corner. 39 this May and by next May... the big 40.

There is something about not being fat at forty. Is there anyone on this same journey with a pretty tight timeline?

Does it count that I started my fitness journey last year a few months before I turned 40? I decided that I wanted to be Fit and Fabulous at Forty with Four kids.

Feel free to add me if you'd like.

I agree with you both 100%!!!!!!! i wanted to be fit at thirty, but discovered a thyroid problem had to have surgery. Since then been up and down and back around but fighting every step of the way!!! Each time I get a little bit closer to that goal. i am determined to do it by forty!!!!! 2 years away.

Yea! Added all of you. I am hoping to stay motivated this time around. I want my 40's to be way better than my 30's. Fit, active and healthy.

Ill be 34 in May. I want to be healthy before 35. I have 50 pounds left to reach my goal. It is so much harder the older I get. LOL

I started getting fit at 39 but ruptured my quadriceps tendon in an accident and spent my 40th birthday on crutches!
So I had to wait until I healed enough to train again. I'm 41 now and not looking back! Good luck!

I will be 39 this year, and I truly want to be at my goal weight and healthy by the time I reach 40. I know we can do it

We're pretty close in age. I'm going to be 39 this coming April and 40 next year. GAH!!! My anxiety level goes up everytime I say that number. I, too, want to be healthier at least by the time I'm 40, but hopefully sooner. It's a good goal, though. I have a six year old son to chase after and I'd like to do it without getting winded!

I also decided to get fit by my 40th, which is this November! Almost lost 20 lbs so far, about 50+ to go. I've joined a gym and am doing weight lifting and Zumba.

Actually, went through that last couple of years. I started before i turned 40. I'm going to be 41 this year, but started at 38.

It was tough, but I did it...and now that i'm using MFP...it's making my journey getting into 40 easy as I get ready to hit 41.

Friend me.

I started at 40. Does that count.

I just turned 38 in January and I am bound and determined to fit and fabulous by 40!

roballesteros

I'm 41 and even though I have been on and off a diet and a workout routine of some sort my entire adult life. I really hit it hard a month after I turned 40. I am now in the best shape of my life and about to run my second 1/2 marathon on Saturday. Please feel free to add me....I like having people my age as My Fitness Pals! :-)

I am! I'll be 39 this year. By the time I hit my big 4-0 on July 4th, 2013, I wanna be rocking some major muscles and a flat tummy!

metco89

Does 49 make into this category ? :drinker:

I'll be 39 in May 40 next may as well. I total get where you are coming from. I plan to be hot at 40 and be more fit in my 40s than I as in my 30s. So far I'm doing it. I feel good, better than I have in years. Feel free to friends me.

I just turned 41 but my weight loss journey began at 40. 40 is that magical number when your body decides to go south, forever. All the things that used to be easy or you never suffered from decide to come full force. For me it was HBP and BP medication that blurred my vision!!! What, not my perfect 20/20 vision. I have always prided myself on my vision, hearing and memory. All 3 decided to take an extended lunch break from me! With BP medication being out of the question, losing weight and excercising was the only choice I had left. Then one morning, while looking at my side view in the mirror to see if I "looked slimmer", I noticed my saggy butt had a little bump to it. The same bump that made my size 8/9 jeans in HS look really cute!!! Wooohoooo, sexy at 40 here I come:bigsmile:

I am totally with you all... I am 38 this Summer and I have a goal of 40 by 40. taking it slow in an effort to keep it off and tone up at the same time. 5'3" with a starting weight of 186. would like to be a svelte 140 by my 40th birthday bash

feel free to add me as a friend

MommaToFour

I AM!!!!! 25 Days to go!!!

KimmySue72

Yep, I'm in the same boat! I will be 40 exactly two weeks after my 1 year anniversary on MFP. I'm down 77 pounds so far in 8 months, and want to be down a total of 110 pounds by my my 40th birthday. I've got 4 months to go! AHHHHHH!!!!! :noway:

Anyway, feel free to add me if you like!

My ultimate goal for this entire process is to be in the best shape of my life by the time I am 40. I will be 38 this year. I want to be fit, active, and be able to tackle anything the next 40 years has in store for me. I spent my first 37 years just sitting on the sidelines watching life go by....no more! :happy:

openskybeach

Not as tight a timeline, however with the amount of weight I have to lose, it may as well be. Ill be 40 in August of 2013. I have about 160 more to lose give or take. Feel free to friend me.
