    I'm 45 and due lots of couch potatoing I'm up 30 lbs over my normal weight. It's not as easy as it was even just a few years ago. I'd love some more mid life friends, especially shorties

    I am 48.. busy mom of 4 kids (5 if you include my hubby) I have alot to lose. I was 265. I am now down to 230lbs.. but I want to get down to 180lbs. I just found this site and I would love to find people that are around my age to help me stay in track. I am the type of personal that looks after everyone else and forgets to look after myself. Please add me as a friend if you would like to be a diet buddy!

    This is my first post. I'm 51 I have lost 27 pounds in 6 months. I'm on my last 10 pounds. Been working on the same 10 pounds for a few months now. I can be a motivator because I sure could use one.

    Hi I am turning 51 in February. I have lost about 15 pounds over the last three months and have about 20-25 to go. Two kids in college, 2 in high school, 2 adult step kids. Lots of changes and challenges coming up in my life in the next few years and I am determined to feel in control of my body, health, weight, fitness, and self-image, especially in the midst of a lot of uncertainty.
    This is my first post and I'm not quite sure how to find/follow this specific thread in the future. Please feel free to add me as a friend!

    We might have different challenges but we also have different motivation. It's more about life and health than merely appearance. Many of us have lived with the consequences of poor choices.

    Hi Cheritwin
    I have had a lot of life changes and still going through challenges for the last 5 years. I have Three adult kids two are married. I have two grandsons and a step granddaughter. I had been over weight since 2000. I finally decided to take control over my weight so I would feel better about myself.

    Its good you have lost 15. Keep going! How are you losing yours. I started out with all protein diet. I have been putting carbs I'm but found out I've been putting to much in and not enough exercise. Now I need to cut the carbs out again. That's harder than you really think. :) I'm also got to work out more in a week. I'm geeting in at least twice a week but I need 4 times a week. Tell me how your losing your weight.

    Hi, I'm 53 and I have a binge eating habit that I am breaking. I have lots of weight to shed and need to only think about the next 24 hours. If I do it correctly for the next 24, then the results will show up. Wishing the best for everyone and sending love and support!

    Losing weight at any age is hard but what's life without challenges lol. I've been on this journey now for 6 months & am down 68 pounds, i have around 30 to 50 to go. It's been an adventure & i have learned lots along the way. I've hit a wall this last while & am learning now to dig in & push through.
    All the best to you all in this journey :)
    & do feel free to add me if you would like another buddy
