    The one thing I'll say about your thirties is that you feel a lot happier with your lot in life and far more confident in yourself.

    Albeit I am thankful that I got married right on the cusp of turning 30/31 and was therefore able to get into a tiny wedding dress. Haha.

    Anyway, adds welcome. :)

    Hello all! :o) I'll be 38 in July, and I'm here to get back to the weight I was in my early 20s, that is around 128 - 130lbs. I have 30 lbs to lose. Three weeks ago a guy I was seeing for 8 months broke my heart, and it gave me an unbelievable kick. I still miss him, but I started thinking totally about myself from that point on, and so far I'm going strong with motivation and I think I'm doing great! I lost 5lbs almost right away, then the weightloss stopped, but I've been exercising 3 times a week and I feel great, so hopefully more weight will budge soon.

    I just want to say - I don't think that it's harder to lose weight in your 30s, although it may seem that way! Of course metabolism slows down and all that, but there are things we can do right at every age and look amazing! :o)

    Tougher just means that you appreciate yourself more for it when it's said and done.

    I'll be 34 in August. Full time employee, part time college student, mom of four, wife of a full time seminary student. I have a good 60 lbs to lose. I'm having a breast reduction in three and half weeks. I can't wait! I could definitely use a supportive friend or two!

    I'm 37, mom of one, and have a desk job. I'm hoping to lose 30-35 lbs--Even though I eat better and exercise a LOT more than when I was in my 20's.

    Hi, I'm 37 with 3 children at home and I also have a desk job that has me sitting all day and travelling 2 hours a day - not great as it doesn't leave a lot of time for much else! But where there's a will there's a way!

    Friend requests going out when I get home from work! :smile:

    Hi, I'm 34 with a busy boy of 4. I've got lots and lots and lots to lose. I've been in it for just over 3 weeks and can't believe that I'm sticking to it. I've got a 8-5 office job sitting in front of a pc all day. Feel free to add me. :-)

    I'm nearly 34 and starting to lose the extra weight after a few years of it creeping on... ironically I'm starting to care less about my physical appearance with regard to what other people think, but at the same time pretty determined not to keep on going up weight-wise!

    Almost 39 mother of a 19 year old here. I'm getting increasingly discouraged as I am working 2 jobs and find it harder to fit in gym time. I am an emotional eater so that's just compounding my current frustrations. The only plus is that my second job is as a server in a busy restaurant so I log a lot of steps each night. I could use all the support I can get. Feel free to add me.

    i'm turning 35 in August, no kids, wonderful hubby and a desk job that i borderline despise. :) the hardest part about losing weight in my thirties is finding the time to exercise and cook and prep everything. but i'm more disciplined, confident, and determined now than i was in my twenties. i quit smoking a few months back (it was a very long process) and have since cut way back on alcohol as well and the the difference is astounding. i have more energy than i did years ago when i was doing both (a lot), but i can actually focus it now instead of just burning all the fuel all the time in all directions. feel free to add me, i'll be sending out requests as well. :)
