    Come join us at WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR SEPTEMBER 2012 - part 2

    You don't have to be 50 -- there are women of all ages, but it is a very positive, active thread.
  • I'm 48 (also from NC!) and struggling too. Sending you a friend request :)
  • Hi, I'm Meg from South Carolina. I turned 47 a few days ago, and have been on mfp for just under three months. I'm losing weight slowly but surely, and mfp has played a big role in my success to date. I'd be glad to be your friend.
  • I am 48 and am actually post-menopausal (uterine cancer and complete hysterectomy at age 40) so I know how hard it is to try and lose weight at this stage in our lives. I am on a journey to lose 130 pounds and am looking for all the help and support I can get, and am willing to lend a helping hand or supportive ear whenever you may need it. Feel free to add me if you like. :-)
  • Hi Linda, I'm Kathryn from Mi. I am 47 and struggling at my 3rd time of gaining and losing. I could use a friend too

    I am 54 and looking to lose weight before my daughters wedding next summer. I find it seems to come off much slower now that I am older, but I really like this site.

    I'm 47 and 9 yrs post hysterectomy. Doctor is calling it "early menopause." Hot flashes in Alabama summer heat are not fun! Lost 38 lbs. in the last year and a half. Now trying to maintain. Been here before and gained so much that I had to lose 38 lbs., so I know the journey is just beginning.

    Feel free to friend me for encouragement!

    I would love more people in my boat. I'm 46 years old and 10 years post meno due to ovarian cancer at 35. I'm having a real tough time losing this time. It used to be so much easier. I would love to know how others handle these challenges.

  • Hi Linda :) I'm new to MFP and I'll be 47 in a couple of months... not sure if I'm going through menopause because I had a hysterectomy 8 years ago. Although they say I'll know it when I am! You can add me as well because we can all use a little extra encouragement.

    I've just turned 51 and am from the UK, would love more friends who can encourage and nag if necessary so if anyone who'd like someone who's on here everyday and is very pro-active please feel free to add me!

    Hit menopause a year or two back and so far no real problems (keeping my fingers crossed that continues!) and trying to slowly lose 35lbs. I love this site! :smile:
