    45 5'5" and want to lose about 12-15 more lbs. Same story - was thin and tone through my 20's and early 30's. When I turned 35 was when I started gaining a couple of lbs a year and it didn't budge as quickly. 10 years later... I've held onto an extra 10 - 15 lbs for many years and this year (recently) hit my all-time high of 153!! I'm down to 140 as of this morning with a goal weight of 125-128ish (I'll know when I get there! lol) Would love to connect with other like minded peeps!

    Feel free to add me- turned 40 in July. Weight had crept up through my 30's- my 40th birthday was an incentive to halt the spread. Am now around goal weight and hoping to stay there ;)

    Turned 40 this summer! Lost approx 68 lbs 2.5 years ago but put on 20 over the last year. Feel free to add me. I'd like to lose the 20lbs I gained, with an additional 25. Ready to lose it for 2015!

    Am 5'2" and turning 40 next month and, like @becky10rp, I started at 143 lbs on Aug. 17th. Weighed myself today and I am down 12.5 lbs. I readjusted my goal to 120 lbs instead of 125 lbs
    and expect (hope) to be there before the end of the year. I really haven't been super strict and Type A about things, but I am moving more and with a purpose.

    How's everyone doing with their weight. Loss? Down 6 lb so far so definitely the slowly but surely route. Loving this site and all the great people I have added so far.
