    Hi! I'm 42 as well, and one of these days will be a mom. We're waiting to adopt so it could happen quickly. (We've been waiting a long time, so I'm trying to stay positive.) Anyway, as a fellow 42 year old, I can sympathize about how our metabolism changes, etc. So hopefully soon, you will hear me complain about sleepless nights. :)

    I'm looking to lose 34 lbs as a first goal (my weight in 2004) and then the next goal will be a total of 43 lbs (my weight on my driver's license!)

    43 year old Mom of 2, my son is 9 and daughter is 4. I know it definitely gets harder with age. I have a lot more than 20 lbs to lose! :)

    I am a 41 yr old mom of a 5 year old. I have noticed how every 10 years is an automatic weight gain. I have also lost some muscle in the process, so I am working to improve both situations.

    Would love to join forces with y'all.

    I am a 50 year old Mom, with a 26 year old son that just got married. I have lots of weight to lose, and have found it is really hard now that I have gotten older. Anyway, I would love to add support to this group. Add me anyone who would like. :smile: :smile:
