Hi There, yes, I am 44 ! I am having blood pressure issues as well as period issues uggg ! I have not had a weight issue until I hit 40. I use to be able to maintain my weight pretty easily, I have been staying steady at my pregnancy weight, which is 144, and I was last pregnant in 1999 ! I was able to lose the weight after the preganancy and was back to 115 but then lack of exercise and just working, once I hit 40, it just packed on again to that 144, I am currently down to 138 and I am 5'1.
WE can all use encourangement and motivation, add me too if you like ! All the best to you, you can do it, we can do it !!!! from Oceanside CA !:flowerforyou:0 -

Hmmmm, I'm 54, post menopausal and been heavy all my life. Today I'm in the best shape of my life !! It's all about commitment. Last year I decided enough is enough, I don't ever want to sit on the sidelines and say " I wish I could do that" again. I'm a work in progress, but I will not surrender. So if you want some tough love add me.0

I'm 42 and can't take off the weight like I used. I lost a significant amount of weight at 38 which creeped back on over the years. The tricks I used then do not work as well at 42.0

Hi Val, you can add me, I am 41 and it is harder the older we get..but I am doing it this time, it is slowing down now but we can do this!0

Hi Val, I will be 54 this month and I know what you are going through. It's not easy any more. I have 2 herniated disc in my back with some arthritis. A bad Shoulder and a bad knee. My exercise is very limited so this journey has been slow going. Not to mention I work 10 hours a day and don't have much time for anything when I get home. I love the support and motivation on MFP i have tried other things but never stuck with it. I am really giving it my all this time, trying hard to stick with it.
Please friend me, i would love to support you in your journey.0 -
Add me too. I am seriously there with you. I am 42 (almost 43) and going through the beginning stages of menopause, I have the same symptoms and it is really hard to lose weight. It is very strange that the places I put on weight are not the same that was used to before. Now everything seems to be going to my waist not hips or b-hind :-) Everything seems to be changing, skin is dry, hair is dry, etc. I am sure you know the pain.0

I'm 55 and still have not gone thru menopause (any day now .....I'm waiting........) I think the weight loss is tougher as we age, but I don't attribute it to menopause. Stress, family life, and motivation are key issues. That said, I finally got the motivation to lose 177lbs and I have so much energy due to healthy eating and exercise. If I knew I would have felt this good years ago maybe I would have done it long time ago. My doctor kids me and says I have found the foutain of youth!!!!!0

I am 45 and I have 27lbs. to go! I cannot believe how slow it's going, but I just keep reminding myself that I didn't gain it quickly...therefore, it won't come off quickly!! Feel free to add me...my diary is open, so if you want to look and see if anything helps you feel free!! Good Luck!0
