    Coming up to 40 very soon, just discovered this app lasts week and feeling quite good about the future. Looking for friends on here to help keep me motivated. First time I have tried to loose weight in almost 40 years.

    Anyone know how I put one of those weight loss pics at the bottom of my post

    37 here...want to say I'm feeling 25 these days, but my twenties were a complete fat-addled mess. :|

    Let's just say I'm feeling awesome. :) almost 50 down, another 50 to go.

    You can do this!

    Yep...just about 50 so far. :)

    Suggestions and 'secrets' forthcoming...I think the biggest secret is that it really isn't all that hard. :)

    I'll be there with you in 10 short days! Feel free to add me if you'd like!

    I started the year with a particular goal, but refined that goal when I had a health issue early in the year. But I'm very happy with where I'm at and where I'm continuing to head towards. No time like the present! :)

    Best of luck with your goals.

    Because I turned forty this year, I decided to get fabulous (AKA healthy) this year as well! Since starting in January, I have dropped 78 pounds. I would like to lose another 30 or so. Please feel free to add me. After all, fabulous is more fun with friends! :)

    Rolling up on 42....took the fitness seriously as I approached 40 myself. Didn't have a ton of weight to lose, but I lost it. I went from non-athlete non-exercising to training for my first full marathon (after I hit the big 4-2). So far, 40's have been awesome. :-)

    I'll be 42 this year. I'm not sure about the outside but inside I feel like I'm 20

    I'm the same way. Turned 42 on the 16th.

    Turning 40 was a big part of my original reason for joining MFP too. Welcome to MFP and to 40!
