    Ok, I see all the threads for hott guys and girls in their 20's or for people in their 30's, what about those of us in our 40's? I for one am 41 but do not feel or act like it! Most people have a hard time believing I'm in my 40's with a son that is 15! I am here to lose weight, get healthy and am always looking for motivation and inspiration and would love to see some more mfp members in there 40's!!
    There is one thread prior to this one dedicated for you guys. I think the title is "a shout out for hot guys and gals in their 40's" . You guys actually started this whole thread & we 30 somethings & also those in their 20's soon followed :P

    I'm 41 and in 2 weeks will be 42. Some days I feel older, some days much younger. I have people telling me they think maybe I'm almost 30 all the time, or even younger, before they know I have a 14 year old son.

    Don't worry about getting to high school weight, aim for a weight that you feel good at and look healthy! I know I'll never hit high school weight, because 110 is just not something I think I'd look good at! lol Best of luck! Hope you are able to reach your goals!

    I just saw this and I'm 48- 49 at the end of this month! I'm back to my high school weight and in the best shape of my life thanks to this website and the primal eating.
    "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me Phillipian" 4:13 (even eat right and exercise!)
    That's me 2nd from left w/sister, mom and daughter.

    I will be 41 in September and never felt sexier! Funny that when I was 16 people thought I was in my mid 20's by how I carried myself. Now they think I am in my 30's. One of my husband's coworkers guessed I was 32 last year. I'll take it! The more weight I lose the younger I look. You go ladies and gentlemen in your 40's! We are the fabulous generation!

    I'm 46 and joined this site in March... it is awesome to see other people in the same age group... was starting to think this site was only for people in the 20's :)

    I could definitely use some MFP friends in the their 40's....

    45 soon to be 46 and never felt nor looked better in my life. You fab 40 peep feel free to add me. We can still do the damn thang and have experience and wisdom as well now. Great combination.

    I still go harder than most 20-somethings in EVERYTHING and have yet to slow down. Age is a question of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

    I too only celebrate the anniversary of my 29th birthday......but since my 12 year old learned how to count many years ago she reminds me of how old I am often (46)!! But as a mother of 4.......my 40's have been some of the best years of my life!!! I am old enough to know better.......but young enough to do it anyway!!! Glad to see I am not the only one that things age is just a number!!

    Totally agree! I had so much fun in the 80's. I also gravitate to the 80's music too. :smile:
