    I wanted to lose my weight by my 40th birthday . . . but just didn't have my "ah ha" moment soon enough . . . I will be 42 this summer and will acheive it prior to that birthday instead . . . better late than never I guess.
    Welcome to MFP.

    Hi Dana!
    I' m 43 and losing 40 lbs would be awesome! Do it now while u can. Starting at 43 i'm finding is very difficult! My body doesn't seem to want to let anything go. I finally went public on mfp this week an wish I had done it a LONG time ago! everyone is sooo supportive and helpful:) Good luck to u! U can do It!!

    Hi! I turn 40 in July and have ALOT of weight to lose! I hear the older you get, the harder it gets and if I don't get a hold of it now, I'm afraid they are gonna have to cut me out of the house and use a crane to take me to the morgue when I die :huh:

    So I'm in this thing for the long haul. Feel free to friend request me and we can do this together :)
