    I love how whoever created this thread relegates everyone in their 30's as being "middle aged".....lol...I'm only 33, and I'm far from middle aged. 33 is not middle aged, dog gone it! I'm only 3 years outside of my 20's, for pete's sake. That said, anyone reading this, please feel free to add me!

    Said upper 30

    44 here.. and starting again, lost 40 pounds last summer, got lazy and put 25 back on. But now I want to lose that 25 and a whole lot more, but my metabolism isn't being so kind to me. Feeling frustrated and having trouble staying motivated. Feel free to add me, also looking for people for motivation and support.

    Hi! I'm soon to be 35. I was very athletic until I turned 30. Climbing the work ladder in my previous environment resulted in a sedentary lifestyle with crazy work hours and a steady diet of junk food. I transitioned to a more stable work schedule and I'm improving my sleep schedule. I just started focusing on exercise and nutrition. I have had many peaks and valleys with regard to weight and overall fitness for the last 5 years. I'm looking to make a permanent improvement in health and lifestyle.

    37, but my mind says wait I think we are still in our 20's! Married mom of 3 teenaged boys. Life is hectic and I need to figure out my routine. Lost 16lbs and 15 more to go. Need motivation and encouragement. Who wants to yell at me a bit to stop eating junk food?

    Hey everybody! I've been on MFP for a number of years, but this is the first board I've been a part of. I am a late bloomer, athletically speaking, but I enjoy it tremendously!! I lost nearly 80 lbs about 5 years ago and have held most of it at bay. I do have the occasional 10-15 lbs that come and go it seems.

    I didn't start regularly lifting weights until last year and saw a huge difference and have learned so much about my body since then. Going on 37 and feeling healthier than I ever did in my 20s!

    Hi, new to the message boards. I just turned 50, I was diagnosed with diabetes, my Dr. wants to put me on cholesterol medication, and I decided to get serious about weight loss. I'm looking for support and encouragement.

    I'm a 45 year old stay at home mom and wife and does it show. It's difficult to get motivated at times. I'm up at 5am and don't get to bed till almost twilight. I have a 14 year old son that I need to get moving around. I have come up with the idea of making a daily workout plan for both of us and hopefully getting my husband and other son to jump in on their days off of work. I'd like some help in coming up with a beginner plan for my youngest. I need some good ideas for my husband who has MS and my self who lacks energy. I've cleared out our kitchen from unhealthy food and need some good info on healthy recipes. I'm gluten intolerant but what I've noticed gluten free foods are high in sugar, starch and very oily. I love fruits and veggies but I need something that's different every now and again.
