    I am 30, married, have 3 kids and have lost 38lbs so far. It has been hard work and up and downs but I finally figured out what works for me and what doesn't. I still have another 50-60 I want to lose but I am happy with the 38lbs so far. Feel free to add me as a friend or anyone else :D

    I'm 32 and just starting tracking my weight again. Does anyone have any successful food plans? I usually eat under my calories but am not seeing the weight come off. And I could use some friends!

    I'm 35 and since last year I've lost 20ish lbs...for the last 2-3 months my weight has sort of stayed the same. But I've also started strength training. The numbers aren't going down, but my clothes have gotten crazy loose and I've got muscles now!

    I'm 33. Lost between 11 and 15lbs so far, depending on the day. I'm doing the 5:2 Fasting Diet. Feel free to friend request me if you would like to.

    *Forgot to mention that I've been doing the diet for about a month and a week.

    Am 33. Started at the very tail end of July with 130 to lose. Have lost 50 so far. Never going back. It's painfully slow after the first stall, but that's to be expected, and you just have to keep plugging away. Best of luck!

    I'm 32. Started gaining weight slowly after college, then lost 35 pounds before my wedding at 26. Slowly gained it back and more after the wedding :( Started losing weight this go around in November 2011 and lost 70 pounds in 11 months then maintained for the rest of 2012. I have been very lax in 2013 and gained 30 of those 70 back, so now my ticker reads 40 lost. But I'm back on track and logging every day again! Anyone who wants is welcome to add me!

    I'm 33, and started this back in I think Oct 2012. I was doing OK, and then gained a lot over the holidays, and then maintained for what seemed like the LONGEST time, but it was just a few months.
    I have changed my calorie intake from 1200 to 1300 to 1400 to 1350, and now to 1510. The latest number I got from the TDEE - 20% which is working out much better for me.
    My weight finally started to move in the right direction!

    I also started working out every day so I expect my weight to do weird things for a few weeks, before stabilizing and then dropping. :smile:
    Feel free to add! I like new friends. :bigsmile:

    I was 30 when I first started losing (feb 2010). in the last 2 years, I have lost almost 40 lbs, gotten down to 125lbs, am fitter than ever, and training for my 2nd half marathon. I have the metabolism of a teenage boy now.

    I think the key for me was changing my eating. I eat 90-95% clean now. And running! I have come to looooove it. I try to log about 75 miles a month

    Feel free to add me too

    We are very similar. I am 34, started at 217 in March 2012. I am down to 175.8 right now. My most current short term goal is 170 or less by Punta Cana (middle of May), and my ultimate goal weight is 135 lbs.

    33 and lost 26 ish lbs between last May and Feb. Stayed at maintenance until April 1st when I decided to do a trial "bulk" cycle to gain some lean mass. Yep, I'm trying to gain weight right now, but come May 1st I'll be back to the "cut" cycle to lean back down to around 20% body fat. It is possible to be successful even in our 30's. We just need to be patient and keep at it. I'm always open to friend requests.
