    I'm 48 will be 49 in July - I have about 75 pounds to lose. I also have hypothyroidism - have had since I was a teen. I FINALLY got my levothyroid dosage on track in the last couple of years and I've lost 13 pounds so far (since the 1st of February). You sure CAN do this! Yes, patience is a virtue. That and willpower and motivation! Best wishes to you!

    40 here. Been stuck in a rute for a while had to mix things up. Haven't lost a single pound in a month, but gained an inch on my chest and biceps and lost one on the waste. Its harder for the 40s folks definitely, but your on the right path and it can be done. Sent you a FR. I'm active on the site and will support.

    Hi...I'm 46 yrs old with about 30 lbs to lose. Honestly, I have just let myself go lately, well in the past few years. I'm tired of it! I feel miserable and am determined to get healthier and happier. :wink:
