    I was going to ask what age did you consider "middle" haha! I guess per your description I fall into that category; I'll be 44 tomorrow but I don't think of myself as middle aged. :bigsmile:

    EDIT: I'm on MFP every day

    I'm Jeralyn. 48 turning 49 in October. Because of health issues & meds ( and depression because of the health issues & meds *sigh*) I seriously packed on the pounds. But I've been killing it with a low carb diet & running on my treadmill everyday and I have only .2 pounds to go before hitting 15 pounds lost. And it's only been a little less than 5 weeks. I'm quite proud of myself. So are my neurologist, Occupational Therapist and Physiatrist. They think my exercise & commitment to it have been helping with my condition. All the more reason for me to continue working!

    Nice to meet you all.

    Hi,
    I'm 49, I would love some "middle aged" women on my friends list.
    Anyone feel free to send me a friend request.

    Or men for that matter.

    40 isn't middle aged. I'm 64, doing well though slowly on this program, and I feel I'm on the back side of middle age, "Old" is the next generation up. Or so I tell myself.

    I'm almost 38 and I consider that middle aged. My diary is open. I eat like a "normal" person. I succeed and fail on a daily basis. I try to be supportive but sometimes I fail. Add me if you like. :)
