    Count me in 50 yrs old and going strong...trying to get fit again and knock off 20 - 30 lbs and keep it off...I work out 1 hr. 4 - 5 days a week. I am 184 now and would like to get as close to 160...anything past that I don't believe I look healthy.

    45 here. Have been struggling all my adult life with my weight, but sure has been a lot worse since I hit that wonderful age of 40.. Would love to talk with others in the same boat..

    Count me in! I will be 50 next month. I can sure relate to hormone changes and hot flashes, too!!! Exercise does seem to help decrease them, though.

    51 and everyday is a struggle to get this weight off. It comes on so easy, but is so hard to get off. I'm in. I could use all the support I can get.

    Another soldier battling the hormones and adipose here!

    I am 45, getting the cortisol spikes, hot flashes.

    I started last year with some RL buddies, slacked off, gained six pounds, and came back without my buddies to learn how to fit into my clothes again! Is there a group, or do we collect the "feel free to add me!" members? In any case, feel free to add me. :smile:

    I'm new to this but would love to be included. I'm a minute shy of fifty and have been gaining steady for the past 3 years, time to reverse that trend.

    This whole topic is full of age discrimination! And discriminating is wrong!

    Almost 46, let myself go. Now trying to regain my youth, and want to live long enough to see the Cubs go to the World Series.

    Love this idea! I'm 45 and realize that it's easy to have the pound creep up on you! I think journaling will help to see the weight change, the food going in and exercise or lack of! Seeing it in black and white should help and having friend see it might hold me more accountable. So please include me in this group, I'm new, just started Monday. A couple years ago I realized how much weight had snuck on (35lbs) and I worked really hard to take it off and now fighting to maintain!
