40+ Club : Where the Cool Kids Are

well I just walk/ran with my boy to the store to get his bike fitted only to find out he needs a new one and my foot isn't ready for that. Oh well I have physio tomorrow. I can whine to him

45 and so done with being the biggest in the room, or photo, or event.... lost 50lbs, gained 45 back,,,,, needing help, support and an honest ear to talk to...

Wow there's lots of 40 somethings here eh and great to see us all working so hard.

Got the track work done early to beat the heat and humidity. 15min warm up, then 6 x 2.5Min intervals with 5 min jogging recovery between rounds, then 10 min cool down. 6.6 miles total.

Signed up for a local sprint tri being held this Thursday night. It is a twice monthly racing series that attracts a bunch of local tri junkies, so I'll see lots of friends there. Will be fun to squeeze in a race on a week night.

Hi my name is Denise and I'm new in this app.
Read the rules that really not sure how to friend request anybody or how to comment on people's stuff it seems when I comment my posts aren't being posted so if anybody can help me with that that'd be great.
I started off early this year at 280 pounds my highest and most embarrassing weight of my life I am also done being the biggest person in the room or the picture or the event I have lost 49 lb and I'm still working on a new diet program.
I am five foot five and a half inches tall and I now weigh 230.5 pounds. But I'm on a special program but I will not talk about due to guidelines but I would like to just see what other people are doing and offer encouragement to others and get encouragement for myself or advise.
I've also have had major health issues something that I'm trying to overcome some that I have overcome and some that I will never overcome.
I'm looking to meet people like minded and try to help people or be helped in any way possible.
My hobbies are painting, piano decorating, flowers, hiking, camping and my new hobby is kayaking. I love they outdoors.
Thanks Denise

Good Morning all, I did not realize I have been away that long! Lots of posts to catch up on.
Welcome to all the newbies.

I managed to get a strength workout in on Saturday, but it really did me in. I then had a date with my granddaughters. As soon as we headed out to play, the sky opened up and it poured on us. Luckily we each had our own umbrella, so we stuck it out for a while.

The other exciting news is our first grandson was born Saturday night. I have yet to meet him, am hoping for Thursday. He was a big boy that made a very quick entrance. Arrived 45 minutes after mom arrived at hospital.

No workouts done Sunday or Monday...my cold has been hanging on causing me discomfort. Am starting to feel a bit better, so fingers crossed it is on mend!

Hi everybody. I'll be 40 in 3 weeks so I'll start hanging out with you guys already Just introducing myself.

I want to get back to running a half marathon (I ran quite a few in my late 30s) and am a yogi trying to perfect arm balances and handstands. I have recently lost 15 pounds following a modified keto diet and would like to lose about 15-20 more pounds!
