    This seems like a good group. I'm laughing because I'm 49, turning 50 in September, but I would really rather stay with the 40 group! I've been doing this since April and am having a lot of success. Already have an amazing group of friends- just looking to expand. Feel free to add me if you don't think I'm too old!

    Me! I turned 39 4 days ago, I have 3 kids (8, 6 and 2) and work full time. I need to get my act together. I have done it before but haven't managed to get back in the groove since Mr 2 came along.

    46 and coming to the end of my journey now, will hopefully be maintenance by September. British lady living in ROI for the last 3 years, would welcome more support and just general chatting as boredom is my worst enemy.

    Hi, I sent you a friend request, I'm a 37 mom of 2 and I work full time. Between work, kids and my commute there never seems to be enough time to do the workouts I really want to do.

    Anyone can feel free to add me. :)

    Anyone can add me. I am so glad I found this group! Would love to make some friends on here once I figure out how to do that :)
    I'm 44 living in Montreal Canada, and the weight seems to have packed on overnight! Regardless of our weight, we all are dealing with the same struggle.

    I am 43. I run marathons, and have 3 kids. I work a crazy job, nights and days flipped and flopped. I was pretty happy feeling still fit 38-40, but the last couple of years it seems I have a much harder time losing weight. I am at my heaviest ever, which is not the first time I have been here in my life. I just can't seem to go down even with regular exercise. Looking for friends and motivation. I have logged in last 2 weeks straight -- yahoo. But trying to keep motivation as I have lost absolutely nothing. I have to find whatever it takes to lose some weight. Not sure how to do things differently now that I am over 40...

    Hi there, I am turning 46 soon and live in Europe. I have just started here - again. I have 2 kids and I also have a sedentary job. I am starting with logging and sneaking exercise in in the mornings as it just doesn't happen later in the day (no time, no babysitter, no energy left...). My hope is to change this into staying under calories soon and being ready to expand exercise time. Please add me!

    Hey thanks ladies. what a lovely group of peeps we have around here on MFP. Its interesting that a lot of us have very similar frustrations and hurdles across different countries and lifestyles.

    I've had a rough week, not been able to do much as the littlest one has been ill. Its so frustrating and so easy to lose hard won momentum!! He seems a lot better today so i'm hoping to have a busy few days making up for lost time. It has spurred me on though watching people on my friends list talking about their good and bad days and picking themselves up and keeping going! Love to you all x

    I'd love some MFP friends from this thread please. I'm hitting 40 later this year and trying to hit my goal weight by then. I've got 3 boys (one nearly teen, the other two in primary school) and have a desk job, so finding the time to exercise is key for me. I've got an open diary :smile:
