    Hi I'm 48 and have had menopause symptoms for a couple of years which have worsened over the last 8 or so months....I have to starve to lose a pound....actually I have to do cardio everyday and stay at 1200 calories to lose<
    which = starving!!!! :grumble:

    SUGGESTION: why don't we just start up our own little group and all be friends? We could stay in touch, share our goals, exercise tips, recipes, mini challenges etc?

    will follow this thread to see what everyone thinks :smile:

    My friends list is pretty full so unless you invite me with a message I probably wont be adding others but for those of you in the same boat please invite others who have responded to this post. We can all use lots of support.

    Hi! I just started at MFP and saw your post. I am 47, mom to two active boys who are 11 and 7 and six months into this PM roller coaster ride. I have been hit hard with hot flashes, insomnia, fatigue, irritability, and oh yeah--weight gain around the middle. I have had weight issues pretty much most of my adult life but this has set me over the edge. I am tired of being this run down and overweight. I have 80 lbs to lose. I am starting Atkins to try and jump start my metabolism but I would love to offer support to each other no matter what method or diet works for us. Feel free to friend me. :)

    Everyone please feel free to add me. I am 42 and looking to lose 75 more pounds. I have lost 22 so far with my work as a massage therapist and exercising on the recumbent bike every day. I need some encouragement to keep going as my weight loss is slow and will be long-going. Thanks!

    Definitely harder. I'm 48 and it's slooooow going this time around. Had babies at age 40 and 43 and that didn't help. Here is a group specifically for women over 40. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/3004-women-40-and-over
