    Yes, 43 and 4'10.... very very hard to lose at this age! I have a full time job and 2 young kids so I can't spend hours in the gym. I do have a treadmill and some workout videos and try to walk or run on my lunch breaks. I would love to lose 20 pounds, but would settle for 15. Need motivation to stay on track!

    I'm 42 and am at my lowest adult weight ever. Worried now that it's going to be even harder to maintain it!

    41 and I feel as good as I did in my 20's, although it takes more work to keep off weight :). I've been on MFP off and on for a while, but just started posting and looking for friends.

    Add me in - 43 in February - just can't seem to get motivated to stay on track now back up to top weight (after losing about 25 lbs about 18 months ago). Still working out but not on regular basis and not watching what I eat and traveling too much has hindered the motivation/progress.

    Hope everyone has a happy new year - Let's get it started off right!

    I am almost 41 and it's not easy maintaining. I lost the weight two years ago, and I have to keep at it not to gain it back. And it's not easy. I could use a lot of support.

    43 here and in the best shape of my life. MFP was a great help along with all my MFP friends. Much tougher to lose in the 40s, but it can be done, I promise. :smile: Feel free to add me, I love to motivate others on their journey.

    Hi my 40+ friends!! I am 41 years old and mother of 4 (age 21, 15, 13, & 7). I had my oldest naturally and the last 3 were c-sections, so u all know I have a gut! I actually started my weight loss on November 9, 2012 at my heaviest, 239 lbs.!!! I later found MyFitnessPal app and joined when I lost some weight (225 lbs). Today, December 31st, 2012, I am at 210.5 lbs.!! I'm so excited and extra motivated to keep going! I definitely want to offer my little bit of advice/support on what I'm doing but I also NEED and DESIRE help and support from all of you!! My goal is 150 lbs. and it's definitely up and down for me....PLEASE ADD ME!!! Lets keep going!!!
