    Yes 40 somethings - why does it get hard to lose the weight after 40??? I would love to add some friend and would try to help you as well .... I am up a few dress sizes and would like to fit back into my clothes.

    That puts me in this category!! Trying to burn off whats left of winter and summer weight gains… Small gains but none the less, still soft edges here and there… Kind of creeps up on you at this age it seems.. Tired of feeling tired… Want to build up cardio and strength.. Looking to be closer to my optimum peak level than farther away from it.. Hiking is my gig, stair climbing too, 35 floors in under 5 minutes now!! Excellent...… Now i'm ooking for my next mountain… :-) Say hi, Love to be friends, i'm in Vancouver BC

    41 here! I'm serious about losing weight the healthy way. No gimmicks, no fads, no pills.................. just constantly being aware of what I eat. I struggle with making the time to exercise. I'm waiting on the day that I wake up and say "wow, I can't wait to go to the gym today". Hasn't happened yet!!

    I'd love some new friends! Add me, one or all!!

    I'm 41. Most people who meet me argue that this is not possible...and who am I to argue about THAT?? I feel like I'm 21.

    Just turned 45 - been lurking here for quite a while. My ex never found me very funny, but my friends do which is why I kept the friends and got rid of my ex. :tongue:

    I am in the middle of a 90-day fitness challenge (Steelefitnesschallenge.com) and am so far down 13 pounds and about the same inches. Trying to get back into shape and eat better to be a strong role model for my daughter and jump back into the dating pool.

    Since I have only been logging food and not on the boards - I have no friends here (yet). Please send invites and I will do the same. Doing this on my own gets lonely sometimes.

    Age is most definitely JUST a number!

    I'm 49 and have decided that I like the 40's just fine and that's where I'm staying, thankyouverymuch. No more of this aging stuff. It's just not nice. I'm also the proud parent of a 12 yr old (going on 30) daughter and a cancer survivor. (You GOTTA have a sense of humor for those two things alone). I have recently decided that I am so over this whole cancer thing so I joined a gym a couple of weeks ago and dusted off my MFP account. Time to take my life back. Time to get this done once and for all. Anyone looking for some MFP company, feel free to add me.
