    I'm in! I lost 55 lbs four years ago and gained 40 of it back in one year. I lost and maintained my weight originally by working with my Mom who was a avid believer in Weight Watchers. So, with proper portions, healthy shopping and a ton of exercise, I went from 186 to 130 in about 18 months. My Mom passed away last January and I have clearly lost my mind! No more though! I am eating 1200 cals/day, journalling every morsel and brisk walk 3.5 mph for 60 every day. I am 46 years old, (post menopausal, I hope) and ready to get fit!

    Sure! Count me in if the plan is to support and motivate each other.
    If the plan is to complain about aging, I'm not interested.
    I'm 44

    Count me in as well. I lost 30 pounds running 2 years ago with a friend of mine. I tried to roller blade with my duaghter, fell and tore my ACL. Now I have gained all my weight back in 6 months. My girlfriend has moved and having a hard time motivating myself to run again. Trying to diet hoping it will spark me to see some weight loss results.

    Feel free to friend me! I'm 48 and looking to get fit by 50 (and beyond). Currently doing JMBR, then planning to try out Turbo Jam, and of course working in the healthy eating, too. I love to share motivation.

    48, and fighting chronic health issues that make it difficult to exercise consistently. Hormones are killing me. BUT I lost 55 pounds 8 years ago and I know I can take off 15 (which might as well be 50) if I have some encouragement and accountability. I refuse to give up. Count me in! :smile:
