    Yes, I will be 50 in May. This all started in mid December when I finally quit smoking . I am 5'11'', weighed 265lbs and always felt lethargic. Feeling good about not smoking, I decided to take the next step and add diet and exercise. After 3 weeks I have lost 14lbs and feel better than I have in years.

    44 now and will be 45 in August. :-) my goal weight has 20 to lose which I gained back in the last year and a half due to a few minor injuries and falling off the wagon. . The first time I lost it (two years ago)I lost 60 lbs total.

    I'm 43 and am looking for some weight loss buddies. It is a lot harder at this age but I'm very driven and motivated. I'm about at the halfway point in my journey.

    I just turned 50 in December. I can't remember the last time something was this hard. I am having a very hard time and the weight is not coming off no matter how hard I try.

    I am 49. I turn 50 in December, and would really like to be fit and 50, rather than flabby and 50.

    I've just turned 40.

    I'm actually stuck between wanting to 'bulk up' a bit, and wanting to lose excess tummy. not fat, just fussy!

    47, but losing weight and getting into shape feels like I am deducting years.

    I'm 48. I am looking forward to feeling like that.
