    No way. This "switch flipping" thing might be contagious.

    (I'm in the better shape now at 42 than I was at 22. It takes me longer to recover, and I'm more likely to hurt myself, but I'm in much better shape.)

    This. I'm 44 and my 'metabolism slowing down' (and then 'speeding up' again) coincided with my activity level rather than my age.

    I'm 46 (guy) and in the process of losing 110-120#. 50 down so far.

    I log every day and have an open diary. I try to participate as much as possible with the friends on my list.

    Anyone can feel free to send a friend request if they so desire.

    I am 46 years old and I have lost 135 pounds in 5 years following Weight Watchers. I have never went to a meeting and follow dwlz.com for all the information that I need. I lost 50 pounds last year and want to lose another 50 this year, then 20 pounds more after that.

    44 here and yes everything has slowed down a bit and recovery has definitely gotten harder. But, I still feel strong & these are definitely some of the best years of my life.

    I am 46, I had a serious car accident when I was 19. I have a motor deficiency. I can walk but can not run. My metabolism slowed down in my late 30's. I am not that fat but I still want to loose some 15 pounds, get stronger as quickly as I can but my body doesn't want to cooperate. It is always in pain. You know that kick in the butt that we need? Don't make it hurt too bad :laugh:

    I'm 45 and still alive! I've lost 35 and have 20 to go. You can do it! Move more and eat less. It's worked for me.

    Add me if you'd like.
