    I'm 40 something and have 30lbs to get to my "goal". I've been here 2 months and still going strong. I feel like I"m going to do MUCH better than that goal! You can do it!

    ditto... i have discovered in my 40's that a calorie isn't just a calorie. i'm not doing horrible on calories but need to change what kind of calories. making myself log even the bad stuff so at least i only have myself to blame when not losing... good luck

    I totally agree! It really makes you accountable...my metabolism is just not what it used to be, much harder to lose and keep the weight off.

    Hi there I am 45 and would like to lose 30 lbs. I lost a bunch of weight in my late 30s and felt great but I have gained it all back :(. Going to Hawaii in March and want to get some cute new clothes..... I refuse to buy anything new now because I don't like the way I look in clothes. Glad to have some other 40 something's doing this!
