  • Hi, I'm 41 coming up 42 this year (can't think how that happened, aren't we supposed to be grown up and sorted by now?) :noway: and making this the last year I ever have to lose weight, I'm going to beat the bugger this time :bigsmile: glad to find people in my age group :heart:

    Hello, I'll be turning 43 in June and hoping to lose70 pounds. One month in and I've lost 12 pounds. MFP makes it easy and definiitely makes me think about how much and what I'm putting in my mouth. Good luck to everyone and feel free to add me!

    Hi - I'm 53 and need to lose about 40 pounds. It DEFINITELY is harder to get it off the older I get - even though I am exercising and watching what I eat. Could use help and tips from those who are in the same boat.

    Hi, I'm 46 and it definitely is harder to lose the winter pounds like I used to. You can add me as I'm on here every day looking for motivation and love seeing results. This really does work.

    Fifty and working on 150 plus to lose (started at 230 to lose).
  • I'm 49 and trying to get "fit before fifty," because it's never too late, LOL! I went through early menopause when I was 42 and ballooned up three sizes because I was an over-eating slug. :tongue:

    I did weight watchers last year and lost 30, but ten have crept back on and I'd love to drop 15 pounds this time around. I've found that MFP works very much like Weight Watchers, so I'm trying this route because it's cheaper, LOL!

    I think you'll find our groups very supportive. Welcome aboard!

    No I'm good. You must not have gotten the memo that when you turn 50 you have to turn in all your extra weight! I'm surprised we are not on page 15 here! Yes we are here we are fat and we are going to lose it all!

    yep. changed eating habits and on 2nd round of P90X. Age is just a number. If you want it, get it. I am in the best shape I've been in in 30 years. Good luck to you!
  • Still 44 (just about), lost 100lbs another 100 or so to go.

    Btw... age is a state of mind, I will be 23 forever... I just need to convince my body of the same :)
