edited November 30 in Motivation and Support
I am 44 and looking for friends in their 40's . All support is great but how my body handles exercise and how a 23 year old handles exercise is a bit different!! Looking for my peers. I work part time have four wonderful kids and a great husband. Have lost 50lbs and have kept it off. Trying to lose the last 10 to reach my goal. Add me as friend!!!!

    Hi. I'm 45 and in the UK. Gained some weight when caring for parents and post-bereavement, but doing well again since January with 21lb gone out of 45lb I'd like to lose, so halfway there. I don't do anything complicated, just calories in/out and some walking, some cycling, a bit of strength training etc. You're welcome to ping me a FR if you like. :)

    I don't know if you want friends in their 50s, but if so, feel free to add me. 51 here, at least physically. Mentally it's a heck of a lot younger.

    Hello! I'm 42 also with a lot of weight to lose. It's scary because when I was a young adult I always heard people say how your body changes as you hit 40 - and now I can see they were right! What frightens me is that it really wasn't until very recently that I realized that I had to get serious about my health and weight loss, and now, with bad knees, etc, I have realized that I just made this so much harder for myself. :( Why didn't I do this sooner????

    Hello I'm 45 and started my weight loss journey on 1st January this year, I know only early days 11 weeks down and I have lost 15.8 kg's. Started at 120 kg's and will be getting to my goal weight of 65 kg's. I bought a fitbit and have done minimum of 10,000 steps every day. I have changed my diet dramatically, no more potato chips, or fast foods, no more eating on the couch whilst watching TV. Haven't been too hard on myself, no food is off limits, yet I don't want the junk foods. Also cut the coffee from approx 8 - 10 a day down to 1 or 2.
    I'd love to hear of your journey and any tips you may have.

    I just turned 45 last week and just started really trying to watch what I eat in the past 3 weeks. I exercise when I can, but have a large herniated disc that prevents exercise some days. I'll most likely have to have surgery on it this summer which means a 4-6 week recovery...please feel free to add me as a friend....I'm a good cheerleader and love to see people succeed
