    Turning 43 this year. Was at my best weight in 2011 since having my three kids, started gaining back. Time to get serious. I have been inconsistantly using this app for several years. It has been the best tool for me. It is so helpful to remind me what I am eating and what impact it has. I just connected to my endomondo app, so I am excited to see how the feedback works out. I would love support getting to my goal. Love the over 40 concept. It seems like it gets a little harder once you turn over to the 40's.

    I turned 40 in June and I have been trying to fight aging ever since, I guess indefinitely! I don't feel 40, so I want to try my best not to feel like it, since i have 3 active kids. It is harder to keep motivation when your older... Friend me if you are still looking for friends :-)

    Hi. I am a 47 year old mother of 4. My goal is to lose 40 lbs by mid May. I know that sounds like wishful thinking, but I know myself and if I don't think big I will not try as hard. I am looking for support (tough love) and would like to give support and friendship to others like myself. Looking forward to getting to know you!

    I'm 44 and lost 30 lbs only to gain 20 back! I need a buddy to keep me accountable. If anyone needs a buddy, let me know.

    There is this group also: lWomen 40+ and Feeling Fine We used to be very chatty, but could use an infusion of new members. We are very supportive. :smile: :
