Hi, I'm 41 and in January I had the privilege of working with a nutritionist. I started paying attention to where my food came from, making sure I was eating fats protein fruits veggies and good grains. So far I'm down 15lbs and two pants sizes. I'm making small changes to my life one step at a time. Now it's time to ramp up my exercise. All the best to everyone!0

I am 52. just joined this week. I find that recording everything I eat holds me accountable for everything I choose to eat. I set a goal for myself each day, it could be as simple as simple as increasing my water by 2 cups. but it really helps. I have gone from no exercise to 3 times in a week. It's a start. Pre-menopause has added 20 pounds in the middle that has discouraged every part of me. So I decided to set a weight loss goal of 30 pounds. If it takes a year, so be it!3

Hello there, I'm going to be 41 in October. I've got approximately 120lbs to lose. I gained all the weight due to a medication that I am no longer on. It's been about 12 years of being obese, and I am ready to shed the weight. I started my lifestyle changes just yesterday, and would like to have some friends along the way to cheer on, and to cheer me on. Friend me! -Sarah0

Hello! I'm 41 and really need to get back on track with logging. I was debating WW, but I keep hearing how the new system is evil. But I kinda wanted to accountability of weekly weigh ins. But my schedule doesn't jive with the available schedule of the meetings. So, I am here. Hoping I can keep logging daily again. Baby steps! Again! LOL!0

Not at all. Didn't bother me reaching 40.
And to be honest, i believe having kids later (which is more the norm in urban environments) has keep me younger. I was 31 for the first, 37 for the second and 41 for the third. While I may be more tired with the youngest than I was with the first, I appreciate him on an entirely different level.1 -
Hehehe!
Okay, so - I'll be 48 this year, I started off at 398lbs at my worst (several years ago) and struggled like mad to get down to 325lbs on my own. Took a few years. 12 weeks ago, I started using MFP's simple and smart CICO program.
Today was my official weigh-in....drum-roll please...298lbs! I've lost 27lbs in 12 weeks. I've still got up to 98lbs to go, so...old farts untie! Errr...unite! Yeah, that's it...now where's my pillow, time for my nap!7 -
