    I am over 40 as well and new to the site. I am in the right frame of mind this time around with my lifestyle change and plan on succeeding even if it is 1 pound at a time. Being new I do not have many friends on here so feel free to add me.

    I, too am over 40 and looking for support on this journey, but of a gluten free lifestyle change. If there is anyone else who may be gluten free, that could help me, I would welcome the help.

    :happy: I will be 41 this year, and always had to fight with my weight. Feel free to add me as a friend! Workout buddies help, setting a goal helps, even if it a mini one.We all seem to have those bad days, and sometimes just need a friend for moral support,,,

    Hi ladies, I just turned 40 in December. I went out with a couple of friends and saw the picture (profile pic) and decided I needed to make a change. I'm tired of being tired all the time. :)

    I am on day 2 of the Supreme 90 day video series that I bought almost 2 years ago and it has collected dust ever since I got it in the mail. So far, I feel better and do have more energy.

    Feel free to add me as a friend, we are all in this together and if we can encourage each other, we all succeed!!!!

    Nice to read all about the fabulous ladies in this topic!

    I'm following the glycemic index diet. It is all about healthy eating. I am counting calories and eating foods low in the glycemic index. I have already collected a few recipes like diet ice cream, apple pie and salads. So anytime you need help with ideas for food I am learning to cook healthy, interesting food. My daughter is 17 and she seems to enjoy the food I'm cooking.
