Women over 40 looking for support

luv2fishnd1 · January 2013

I'm 48 and have about 125 lbs to lose. I'm just getting started, but know I can do this. I have the support of my daughter and my husband this time. My husband is also working on losing weight, and losing it faster than me, but that's ok. Men lose faster than women. I'd like to loss all of it my by 50th birthday in May 2014. Feel free to add me.

Hey, just look at all us over 40! I am 62, doing this for not the first time and have lost about 40 pounds since July. I finally want it bad enough to do what it takes. Am trying to avoid diabetes and enjoy life again. And life is already so much better than before I started. Would be glad to have friends along the way!

Well , hi all. I am trying this posting for the first time in my Life (LOL!) Just joined MFP. I am a hygienist by day-Group Exercise Instructor for fun- 20yrs!!! I will be 52yrs old in April . Usually feel in the best shape of my life but had a free-for-all over Christmas holidays. No problem buckling down - weighed in at 135 -should be 122-mean and lean. Just finished my 1st 2013 fitness class this morning at the club- lots of new people- as always!! Burned almost 400 cals.- Remember, exercise, stay around 1200 cals. per day, watch your fats,carbs, sugar. MFP will help tremendously - too little calorie intake will not maximize your metabolism- Lets do This!!-Sincerely jcbub: :bigsmile:

I need support and suggestions about how to not exceed my allotted calorie intake. The last two days I was over on calories, probably because we still have company from the New Year and we have been going out to eat. Thankfully they are leaving today!

Hi Sara, I will be 50 in April too and looking to loose as much as i can by then although i know i can't be normal weight as i have a target of 100lb to lose. Happy to give you as much support as i can. I'm going back to Scottish Slimmers on Wednesday but using this site for all my recording of food and excercise. xx

Feel free to add me. I'm 41 and started to take back control of my health and life in 2009. I am not really in it to lose any more weight (5 lbs would be great but I'm happy where i'm at now) just trying to maintain what I have lost and tighten and tone the rest.

WAHMto5 · January 2013

caplady123 · January 2013

I'm 42 and this is my first week with mfp. I can use the motivation - I don't usually post very much, but thought this might help with staying on track! So far I have kept up with journaling and on track with the exercise. Looking forward to having some friends and support! You can add me!

ladyhazen · January 2013

Hi! I am over 40 and also looking for some motivation. I've been on MFP for a year and am about half way to my goal. I am looking for friends to add on here so that we can hopefully encourage each other to stay on track!

LISAGOAL · January 2013

46 and as we all know on here it's much harder to lose it. I would love to have some support as I am just starting here as well.

0shuna0ma · January 2013

Hi I am one of those way over 40 (61, will be 62 in May). Started mfp a little over a week ago and have let go of 3lbs so far! I was on WW but couldn't afford it anymore, plus I like seeing the cal, fat, sugar, carbs, protein info that I get on my ipad. Really looking at the sugars and carbs.
Count me in!
