in Introduce Yourself
Looking for a support system and buddies to help keep me accountable! I'm more than happy to do the same. :wink: I've been using myfitnesspal off and on for about 8 months and I am SERIOUSLY ready to do this deal and get the extra weight off. I need to lose about 30 lbs. My better half is taking me to Vegas to celebrate my 40th (a few months early) in late May and I shudder at the thought of laying out by the pool looking like I do now...

Please help!
Crystal

    It's a great time to get fit! You're starting good habits that can last you into your golden years.

    I'm 42 and, believe me, nothing feels better than surprising people, "What?! You're over 40? No way!"

    Feel free to add me, too.

    Turning 40 next year here. 20 months ago I was looking pretty flabby and I too was looking at myself in the mirror and asking "does my wife find "THIS" attractive??" Something in me just snapped and I haven't looked back since June 2011. It only took 6 months of dedication to see noticeable results, and I'm now just 6 pounds away from my weight goal (and from having "Abs" for the first time in my life :bigsmile: )

    I'm on here pretty much every day and can lend support/motivation if you need it!

    I'm over 40 and have really stuck with trying to get healthy. I've lost a little over 20 lbs since really focusing on my eating habits and exercise. Add me if you'd like. I'm on here daily and really do make it a point to say something positive after a friend posts something.
