    Hi. I am 43 and I started this journey at 199# with a goal of 155# (about 44 pounds to lose). So far, I have lost 18# so I have about 26# to go. I am a working mom and my hubs is gone 1/2 of the year so while I have food under control most of the time, I am constantly trying to find time to exercise. I am not sure where people shoe-horn it in...but I am working on it! I certainly do not have time to do anything else for myself (tv, hobbies, sleep, etc. so I am not sure what I would drop....). I'd love to hear more about how you all balance your days.

    Hi all, feel free to add me, as I fit these categories, too. I have about 10lbs to go to reach target, and will then look to keep increasing my general fitness level. I've flicked between MFP and another app, but have settled now with MFP and I'd like to start making use of the social aspect of it for sharing ideas and encouragement. :)

    Hello,
    I am Lyn and am 49 years old. I have got health issues which I believe are weight related so I have promised myself a challenge for my 50th Birthday. I want to be ten and a half stone!. I have been overweight now for 12 years and owe it to myself to achieve my goal. I have 9 months. Any encouragement will be greatly received. All we need to do is to be honest with the facts we are entering on this programme and then try and up our exercise (even if it is just going for a walk) and WE WILL GET THERE! I need to shift 63 lbs.

    Please feel free to add me. I have lost 28 lbs, then I joined Myfitnesspal.com - my current goal is to lose 50 lbs. Once that is lost, I need to lose 50 more (100 lbs total). I am 45 years old, I work full time, and I am a full time graduate student working on my master's degree. I tend to eat when I am stressed out and really need supportive friends.

    HI! Way over 40 here (56). I have about 40 to lose although I don't know if that is a realistic goal for me. But I will keep working on it.Its more of a lifestyle change for me so as long as I keep running and eating pretty well I will be happy. Feel free to friend me. One can never have too many friends. Especially ones in the same "boat." Enjoy your Friday!

    I'm 56 and am back on track once and for all time. I have 40 lbs to drop and I don't believe that it's any harder to lose weight as we age. It's mainly because we aren't active enough. I also made a major life decision to stop drinking for a year because you know,... just one glass of wine is 110 calories and it adds up fast, often undoing all our hard work during the weekdays. I need female friends for support and encouragement! Feel free to add me please!
