Looking for some gals in this age bracket that are struggling like I am.

    I hear you! At 46 I felt like an old, old lady. Night sweats, insomnia etc. Within weeks of a major diet change and working out at my local gym 6 days a week, I was sleeping thru the night and no longer enduring the night sweats. I lost 62 pounds in 7 months and now at 48 I feel ten years younger and have no problem keeping up with my active family. I just started another fitness challenge at my gym because I want to keep feeling this good. Add me as a friend if you like.

    I'm 53 and have fibromyalgia along with the menopausal syptoms. It ain't fun:explode: So here I am trying to lose weight for um-tenth time. I'm going to do this even if it kills me:sad:
