    Well, I have already pasted the 40 mark, but not by much. It is great to feel good and be in shape as you get older...that way you don't feel older. LOL Good Luck!:flowerforyou:

    You can ABSOLUTELY do it! I'm a 51-year-old, post-menopausal, grandmother of 8, and I'm doing it - so I know you can! All it takes is determination and a goal. You have both - so go for it! :-)

    I turned 40 in October...made the decision to change my lifestyle the previous February (2011) before my 40th.........To date I'm down 89 pounds and feel great....Lots of support on this site and I'm sure you will make your goal.....The two most important factors in your pursuit will be consistency and discipline......hold yourself accountable to the lifestyle and the weight will fall off!!!!!!
