    I just turned 40 (eek) and have 15ib to lose. Was very happy with my weight for several years then I started a new job and put 15ib on working late and eating rubbish. Starting a new job in a couple of weeks and determined to lose weight not gain it this time!

    40 in 2 months and want to lose about the same - more like 18 lb though :) Also changing jobs in June - back to where I put on weight - determined not to let it happen again this time! Want to lose the 18lb by June 22 :)

    I'm about to turn 39 - can I join the party? I got down to my ideal weight with MFP 7 years ago, and slowly gained it all back. Now I'm trying again and at 39, it's a lot more difficult! :neutral:

    Welcome to the party!!! Happy Good Friday :)

    I’m 46 years old, working mom. Busy like the rest of us, but trying to balance it all and make good choices. I have been using mfp for a couple years in and off. I Need to lose the 10 pounds gained this winter. Anyone can add me :-)

    Hello everyone! I am turning 40 in the 13th in April. In the last year, I had 30lbs jump on my butt. Things just aren't as easy as they used to be that's for darn sure. HELP! I would love to make new friends.

    I'm trying to get my butt back out from under my finger rock and move. I need to lose the dreaded 40-50 pounds from medicine that they just now pulled me off of. Nice, right? Thanks, docs. As if I didn't have enough to deal with after back surgery last June. So, I get that I have to go slow and steady but I'm an impatient sort. So I could use all the support I can get!!! That's where you ladies come in!!! :)

    So happy to find this group!!

    Daisy, look up emeril lagasse. vegetarian chili, it's so good! What kind of chicken things are you looking for ? Anything not grilled? New marinade? Does it have to be chicken breasts? I made this, stewed chicken thighs with potatoes and carrots, it's one of my favs and go tos.
