    Mid-40s here. I feel much younger in spirit, but I definitely feel myself fighting gravity and the changing hormones now. Everyone on this thread is welcome to add me as a friend.

    Old?! No way! LIfe is really much better over 40 in my case! I was shocked when I realized that I am actually at middle age!! ROFL I thought, how can that be, I still feel so young!! LOL So, I decided that, age is just the number of years you have lived, which may show in your body, but LIVING is all in the attitude! Here's to another 40+ years! (edited for repeats)

    Do you do cardio in the gym? I see that you have problems with your knees so that may prevent you do so much? Some kind of high intensity is supposed to burn more calories than say 30 mins on the treadmill.

    Hey I am in the same boat - looking for over forty friends. Everyone I started this with has jumped ship. I am back on the band wagon and would like to have some MFP pals. It can get lonely.::sad:

    My name is Barb; I'm fifty some years old and have been on a diet since I was five years old. I find that monitoring my food and exercise helps me to maintain a healthier lifestyle. I had heart surgery about two years ago after being on a vegetarian diet for eight months and losing twenty pounds. I guess it was too little too late. I am a diabetic and have found it difficult to learn how to eat properly as such and to give up the poor eating habits that led me down that path. Over the ten years since I was diagnosed, I have conquered many of the pitfalls though and learned to eat in a healthy manner. I still cheat occasionally, but I think that is a healthier option that cheating constantly. After heart surgery I lost another twenty pounds and have struggled to keep it off. I am on my second weight surge and have to lose 16 pounds to reach my goal weight. I don't have a structured exercise program, but make a conscious effort to add activity to every day: taking stairs instead of elevators, parking far away from the store when shopping, etc. I have lost the same 8 pounds twice in the last three months so I thought I'd start posting and encouraging others. Misery loves company, right? I think we all struggle with common urges so encouragement should promote our mutual success.:drinker:

    I just need some MFP friends/support to try and beat this plateau and get some encouragement to reach my goal of 40 lbs by year end if possible ....
    Any advice will be appreciated ...
    Accepting friend requests to share experiences on MFP and exchange advice
    52 y/o and feeling great so far, need to continue this quest, please help

    I log everything in MFP, food, exercises, etc and try to stay below my caloric goal daily (1720 calories per day)
