over 40's please!! :)

41 by the calendar but "28 FOREVER!" in my head! Finding losing this same 25-ish pounds much harder than when I did it at 36 and 31. =(

I am also 43 and working on gettin my body back after having kids ...lol feel free to add me

I'm 41..joined a different site and am on my second week, but discovered this site a week ago and it seems to have way more to offer without paying! I was around 150 for awhile, then quit smoking and had 2 back fusions a few weeks after. With a year recovery and needing my hardware removed, it was a year of not moving much (or all that much after) and despite eating less and healthy, I kept gaining a few pounds a month. I have quite a ways to go and hope to both lose the weight and get my body in less pain. :happy:

Hit 46 last week. Started here December 2011 feeling exhausted all the time, back pain, cranky and 28 lbs heavier every time I worked out it knocked me in the dirt for 2 days after and I had run a marathon 3 years earlier. Start w/ a basic physical I was severely anemic and within 3 weeks of starting on iron supplements I was feeling 1000 times better ( common issue for ladies as we head toward the big M).
I was mostly a runner / aerobics w/ light weights girl but I joined a high intensity interval program - not cross fit but many of the same moves but more running less heavy weights. I had lost 16 lbs and 1.5 sizes over 8 months on my own running,skating & doing home videos and using MFP but I lost 12 lbs in 12 weeks and 2 sizes at the gym. The key is it's five minutes from home, I like both the trainers and the other clients and it is a pleasure to go there. They assess progress every six weeks for aerobic capacity, body fat, body measurements and strength and the improvements have been shocking.

I have so much more energy, feel more confident am happier and it has had a very positive effect on my love life so my husband has no trouble paying the $99 per month and letting me go 5 nights a week for 1-1.5 hours. Worth every penny he says and thanked the trainer for getting me in shape.

You definitely have to up your game, get strength training into your routine and keep your diet cleaner than when you were young but it can be done.

Hi, I am Pam and I'm 45. Anyone who wants to, can add me as a friend. I am actually amazed of how well I am doing this time around. I have lost 20 lbs since January 11. I am eating healthier (most of the time, but I am definitely not perfect) and walking more (3 to 5 miles a day). The combination is really working for me. I am finally in the right frame of mind and things are clicking for me. The odd thing is that I am actually craving healthy food and my walks.

Definitely know that feeling- Please feel free to add me!

40 plus 2 months.

I am 42 going on 43 this month. I am new to the site too and sent you an invite. I know for me it's been harder to stick to dieting and exercise as my life got busier but now it is time to find the time to work on me and get me to a happier healthier weight. If you or anyone else would like to add me please do so - can use all the friends/support I can get.
