LOOKING FOR WOMEN OVER 40

Sounds like a pick up line, huh?
Actually I am hoping to find support from women with the same sort of issues as I have. Women over 40 have physical challenges others don't have or understand. I am 46 and starting to experience signs of menopause. Gone are the days when I could eat slim fast for a month and loose 20 lbs. It's a constant struggle and I am hoping MFP will be the one that works.
I am more than willing to accept friends that fall outside of this group but definitely hoping to find some going through the same life experiences as me.

Hi, I'm 39 and I am definitely noticing changes in my metabolism but nothing from menopause yet. I know what you mean about wanting this kind of support/camaraderie. While I'm not 40 yet and cannot offer anything about menopause I am interested in this issue since it will be coming up for me. So even though I fall outside of 40+ you can add me and maybe I can at least offer you some support and encouragement.0

I am 39, I have always had metabolism issues and have been overweight most of my life, but notice as I get older it gets even harder...

Feel free to add me - I'm 44 and I really noticed a big change in weight gain/hard to lose weight over the last couple of years. I'm trying to lose 45 lbs (1/2 way there!) before I turn 45 in November0

Hi, there's a "group" already on MFP "40-50+ but younger next year" If you want to join that group, Go to "Community" tab, then search for it on the "Groups" tab (adjacent to "message boards" tab). It;s great. Very active group, lots of support.

I'm almost 42, and my metabolism is definitely not what it used to be. I'm focusing more on building muscle than weight loss, and the scale doesn't move very much at all. Feel free to add me!0

Add me, too. I am 52 and have about 50 lbs to lose. I have been watching what I eat for the last month or so and have only lost 5 pounds - in the not-so-distant past I would have lost twice that and noticed a change. Now I feel like everything is in slow-motion and I can't imagine keeping on like this.
I have the Fitbit Ultra, MFP, and I know what I'm doing - it worked in the past but now? Blah. Like walking through quicksand. NOTHING.0 -
Coming up to 44 in a few weeks. Definitely finding i'm putting on more weight since i hit my 40's. I'm currently trying to shed my jelly belly. Feel free to add me.0
