Who is working to be fit at fourty

Options
My 40th birthday is looming around the corner. 39 this May and by next May... the big 40.

There is something about not being fat at forty. Is there anyone on this same journey with a pretty tight timeline?

    Does it count that I started my fitness journey last year a few months before I turned 40? I decided that I wanted to be Fit and Fabulous at Forty with Four kids.

    Feel free to add me if you'd like.

    Yea! Added all of you. I am hoping to stay motivated this time around. I want my 40's to be way better than my 30's. Fit, active and healthy.

    I started getting fit at 39 but ruptured my quadriceps tendon in an accident and spent my 40th birthday on crutches!
    So I had to wait until I healed enough to train again. I'm 41 now and not looking back! Good luck!

    We're pretty close in age. I'm going to be 39 this coming April and 40 next year. GAH!!! My anxiety level goes up everytime I say that number. I, too, want to be healthier at least by the time I'm 40, but hopefully sooner. It's a good goal, though. I have a six year old son to chase after and I'd like to do it without getting winded!

    I also decided to get fit by my 40th, which is this November! Almost lost 20 lbs so far, about 50+ to go. I've joined a gym and am doing weight lifting and Zumba.

    Actually, went through that last couple of years. I started before i turned 40. I'm going to be 41 this year, but started at 38.

    It was tough, but I did it...and now that i'm using MFP...it's making my journey getting into 40 easy as I get ready to hit 41.

    Friend me.
