Hi looking for some motivation for someone in my age group as i think the older you are the harder it is to lose the weight. Any ideas and inspirations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and good luck everyone

    My name is Celeste and I will be 42 next month :-( I also think it gets harder as you get older but I'm on a mission to be fit and fabulous :)

    Hi there to both of you - the motivation is to look great for the rest of your life! It is hard, but we can do it. I'm 47, so sadly I'm now closer to 50 than I am to 40 lol, but hey.. I refuse to believe it!

    HI Im a bit older than 40ish. am on here most days would be happy to help and support if you want to add me feel free.
    weight loss when you more mature is more difficult but remember the longer you takes to loose it the longer it will stay off so dont try to loose it too quickly.

    All the best

    Hey there. I turned 40 in July and understand what you mean. Your age doesn't have to limit your success. Yeah, the body acts differently now, but I think it also appreciates the improvements more, too. I'm not on the discussion boards every day, but I am on MFP every day. You can add me if you want.
