    48...wow, it hurts worse to write it than say it!

    I totally agree! We try and forget it don't we, lol.

    Every day! I try and convince myself I'm a lot younger. :smile:

    I'm 47 and have just joined this site. Looking forward to meeting people here. My goal is to lose 40 pounds the good old fashioned way, through diet and exercise.

    Hi - I am 48 and just joined this site a small bit ago, and it has been a terrific experience so far! Feel free to add me for encouragement! I know our challenges are quite different as we get older - the weight is harder to lose and we have more aches and pains then the 20 somethings. :flowerforyou:

    Turning 50 in 6 months. I made it into my 30s and 40s without too much thought but Ive been dreading 50 for at least 3 years...until about two months ago. I suddenly realized that I can be 50 and Fabulous and Fit. People will look at you for lots of reasons...too fat...too thin...too old...so I decided that people will look at me and say "Wow, I cant believe youre 50!"

    My struggle with weight started in my early 30s with short periods of weightloss success in between. Ive lost 20 lbs...been working with a personal trainer for a year now. Its coming off very, very slowly because...well...I LOVE food.

    By the way, I live in Toronto, Canada :smile:

    Will an older lady do?? In my 70's and losing weight since my last baby, but it creeps back. Still trying and could use a co-loser for friend and weight confidant.

    Yes, 49 :) I just joined mfp. I really like it ! It makes me feel very accountable. I had to make up quite a bit today in exercise to make up for a lunch I used to eat regularly with no idea of the calorie count or fat content !

    56 here. I just joined. I was doing very well and was gone for a while. now am forcing myself to get going again. gained what I lost now really have to work. I want to lose at least 130 but am shooting for 170. If I get 130 down then I will be donating a kidney to a good friend. I need lots of support and encouragement. I fear failure and have a hard time comprhending being small.

    Oh definitely add me then. I find that hilarious and yet I work for "THE" Big Guy in the sky. If you're gonna work for Him, you have to have an extremely warped sense of humor and never can be PC.
