    At 43 I've made some life altering chnages around my health... I love to eat however I wasn't eating the right foods... Since I've been on MFP I've lost 26 lbs.... gone down a size.... and can hike mountains!!! I no longer have the ills of my 20's and 30's.... My goal is to get healthy, travel the world, and zip line through the trees!!!!

    Welcome! Hope we can help you along. I'll send you a friend request. This site has been really useful for getting me to think about healthy grocery and stick with a gym routine. Pick out some mini goals. I just cross into the 160s after starting at 198 and it was so exciting (the 170s lasted forever)!

    Hi, I'm 46 and have decided it's time to eat right and start excersising. It's hard but I think we can achieve our goals. I tend to eat when I'm bored. Excersising is keeping me from being bored so that helps a lot. I will send you a friend repuest.
