    I've just turned 40.

    I'm actually stuck between wanting to 'bulk up' a bit, and wanting to lose excess tummy. not fat, just fussy!

    47, but losing weight and getting into shape feels like I am deducting years.

    I'm 48. I am looking forward to feeling like that.

    I'm 58 and having a hard time losing in spite of all exercising I do! Is it because of my age? T.

    Hello…. I turned 48 in November…. and my goal is to loose 50 lbs by fall of 2013. I am down 23 now so 37 left to go !! I joined MFP a month ago and really enjoy the daily contact with the friends I made on here. It really helps to keep you mindful of all that needs to be kept in order while on this journey. This site keeps me accountable for everything from food consumption to my daily exercise . I am thrilled to be apart of this. To see others accomplishments is very inspiring too….. my goal is to be one of the many who have succeeded on here !!! Best of luck to everyone !! We can do this !!

    Hi there.... I am 45 and I agree with Stubbynose who just posted.... We can do this!!
    I have been carrying around 30 pounds too many for the past three years....
    I have found now that I'm in my 40's taking the weight off is a whole different ball game than years ago.... I used to be able to diet and exercise for a week and drop 5 pounds easy... however this time around I am committed to tracking my food/exercise and that seems to be keeping me really accountable. So far so good.... I'm down a few pounds and committed to reach my goal.
    Keep at it, I find that using My Fitness Pal is really helping me on a daily basis.
