I know that feeling. I’m 42 and my “baby” is 16 1/2. I have been trying to lose off and on for years and now I have several health conditions due mostly to being overweight. I joined my local diabetes prevention program through the hospital and was trying to stay away from junk foods, but it’s hard with the holidays. Good…

Sounds cool! Add me to the list. Right now I’m extremely upset with myself with my lack of progress - I’ve only lost 2.3 lbs so far.

Hi, ladies!

I'm feeling some changes myself. I read up about perimenopause and saw that it can start happening up to 15 years before the real change of life. I'm 41.

Hi, everyone! I saw this group and I thought I would join. I'm 41. I'm in upstate New York and always looking for new friends.

I haven't felt good about my weight for years. I want to exercise 6 days a week even if I don't feel like it, eat healthier, stay hydrated (I don't drink enough water) and above all lose weight and keep it off. I know being 41 presents a challenge as far as metabolism goes, but I'd love to ditch some of my health…

Sure, I’ll try it. I’m a 39 year old Type 2 diabetic with high cholesterol and some other health problems. My current weight is 177 lbs. I’m looking for a drastic decrease in my BMI and to just get healthier. My ideal goal is 140 lbs, but I don’t know what’s actually attainable this quickly.

That’s cool. That would definitely encourage me to work harder to get in shape and stay that way.

As an overweight person l’m going with the unpopular opinion. Yes, I think that overweight people (unless there’s extenuating circumstances out of their control regarding them being overweight) should have to pay more - we’re a drain on the healthcare system. I, personally, have no one, but myself to blame for being…

I don’t do starving, but I am guilty of binging. I hear you on wanting to cry every time you put weight on. I’m down 2 pants sizes and think I look awesome in a lot of my shirts especially since having surgery, however, since the surgery 2 months ago, I have put on 8 lbs. I have been trying to eat healthy. I admit that I…

Okay. I guess I qualify as “middle age”. I’m 38.

I would love some more friends - preferably the kind that are going to hold me accountable for making or not meeting my weight loss goals. I put 8 lbs on in the last 2 months and I’m not happy. I have plans with some people to go to a water park next month and would like to not be an embarrassment to them when I put on my…

Apparently I must be doing something wrong then because I’m not seeing results. I put on 8 lbs in the last 2 months. Sure, 4 of those weeks were post surgery when I couldn’t do much of anything, but still...

I just (4 days ago) had breast reduction surgery. How quickly can I start getting my fat *kitten* back into shape? I’m 5’ 2”, 174.6 lbs and going to be pissed if my boobs don’t shrink to a C. I was wearing a 44 DDD bra before surgery. I’m so happy I had the surgery since I had severe back pain and my right shoulder was…
