    I'm 36... but I feel 40.. Does that count????
  • Today is a big day for me. I turned 47, found this site and joined, and I climbed back on the being healthy wagon. I have about 20 pounds to loose but I have been trying to lose this for years! I do great and loose a few pounds, lose my motivation, and gain it all back. I am surrounded by well-wishing saboteurs who I call family members and co-workers! I need encouragement in order to stick to my diet and exercise program so I will become healthy and strong. I would love to find some motivation to keep me on track!

    I am almost 44 and am trying to lose 30 lbs. I really need the motivation, and also suggestions, for non-cardio workouts. In fact, for the next 8 weeks, I will only be able to do laying-down or sitting exercises. I think I'll get a decent arms and upper body workout during this time with the wheelchair and walker, but the abs and below are really going to suffer :(

    41. 3 weeks in. Going well so far, but I could always use a swift kick in the butt to get me going.

    I can give them, too ;)

    Hi I'm 44 and in the UK. Joined this site 3 weeks ago and have lost 10lbs so far, but know it will get harder and will need motivation and support to reach my interim goal of 35lbs lost by 4th August!!

    Feel free to add me and that goes for anyone else too, especially any fellow Brits!!

    I think starting a 40 something group would be an awesome thing! I am 42 and have lost 45lbs in the last 9 months. Still have a lot more to go, but I feel much stronger and happier than I have in a long time.... and truly, once everything is said and done, I do believe my ultimate goal will have me looking better at 45yo than when I was 25yo. Plz let me know if you get this group together... would love the support and motivation from my peers! :)
