    49 here! I'm not very extreme with exercise but I find it much easier to stick to a plan if it isn't too big a change from my regular life. I try to get 4 hours a week but often get more because I don't feel the pressure to go crazy! Feel free to add me too!

    45 and could use the encouragement, especially in regards to exercising. Good with my food intake but not so much with the exercising. Will send you a request and feel free to add me.

    I've just started up again, I'm 46 and wish I never stopped logging and exercising 6 months ago, now I'm up 9 lbs and disgusted with myself. But exercised today and that's a good start and had a huge home made stir fry for dinner with tons of veggies.

    Subtract a year and that's me. Signed on to MFP a year and a half ago. Lost 45 pounds over six months with "starving myself" and busting my hump. I'm determined to not go back. My wife thinks I've gone insane with my exercise, but that's about the only way I know to stick to it. I don't count, but I weigh every day and log my exercises. I'm telling you, it's possible.

    45 and so ready to be healthy and fit! I'm weirdly optimistic about it this time. I tend to do best when I'm under pressure, and I have visits with judgy, always slim relatives coming up, which seems to be lighting a fire under my (amply sized) booty.

    I'm 46, Irish, married, mother of three, working full time, studying part time and trying to lose weight! I'm back to MFP for a few weeks now and very determined. It's coming off slowly so far, but I need to lose over 40lbs and it would be great to add some more friends. All you 40 somethings, please feel free to add me. I'd love to hear from you all :)
