I'm 40 years old but about 24 on the inside! I teach spin at the local Y three mornings a week at 5:30 am...they pay me to be there, the rest of the people are crazy! I love to bike, swim pretty good, and tolerate running so I can compete in triathlons. I've been married for almost 16 years to a fabulous man who rides my wheel telling me to "dig in...don't slow down!" We have 4 fabulous kids, and, no you are not seeing wrong, I didn't birth the little one! The oldest is 14, then 10, 5, and 3. Little man is from Guatemala-wanted another child but DID NOT want the pregnancy!

I joined PT in August 08 shortly after turning 40. I turned 41 this summer and I'm now in the best condition in both weight and fitness level in at least 12 years, that takes me back to when I was 29! I've been married for 19 years and have 4 children (15, 13, 7 and 2) and I want to be around for the next 40 years for my wife, children and grandchildren. I had a surge in fitness in 06-07 and completed a sprint triathlon in the spring 07, lost momentum and then broke my ankle in the summer and lost ALL momentum. 2008 was not a good year but 2009 is a new year for a new me... I'm loving life, losing weight and fitting into smaller clothes!

I'm 18, a freshman in college, and I really want to lose weight. I feel like my friends (some of my fake friends) and family want me to gain weight, but i'm on the borderline of normal weight and overweight for my height, 4'9". If i go back to visit them and they see i haven't gained weight, i feel like they'll hate me even more. This same dilemma happened with my sister. My family and her friends spreaded rumors that she was anorexic, which is not true because she's normal weight, and whenever they were around her they would tell her she was too skinny and needed to gain weight or eat unhealthy foods such as pizza with grease dripping off it. Keeping in mind how they will think of me, having cravings for potato chips, candy, and ice-cream binges, and being overloaded with stress and anxiety from school makes it difficult to lose a few pounds. I want to lose weight and i hope joining this team makes it easier. I'm vegetarian but binge on junk food.

Most members on both sides of my family suffer from heart disease, high blood pressure, and diabetes so this is an effort at a reversal of fortune. i'm 5'8" 141, in good health, but i want to be healthier. i want to be a runner and i want to be an inspiration to those around me.

I started eating healthier Ealier this year and lost 40 pounds. Yeay me, but for the last 2 months i have not lost anything at all. I am going through a seperation with my husband and my son moved back home from the Army late last year to go to college full time. So my plate has been full and i admit my motivation has decreased in the last couple of months. I joined the YMCA today and plan on starting working out at least 3 days a week. My first thing will be a spin class tomorrow morning.

I am 38, an urban planner, and have a 3-year old. I am married, but sometimes feel like I don't feel like I have enough hours in the day to take care of my family and myself too. However, I know that we all have the same 24 hours in a day and that I need to figure out a way to make the most of mine.

I'm in my senior year in college and will graduate next December total of 4 1/2 yrs. I have struggled with weight my whole life, but since going to college and no longer involved in three different sports I've gained probably 40-50 lbs in the last two years. Two summers ago I lost 25 pounds and I've gained all but 5 back. I would like to figure out a healthier lifestyle that works for me and stick to it. Part of my problem over the past year has been battling nagging foot pain that makes physical activity very painful.

I have just turned 40 and live in a small town in Indiana with my husband. I have always been the largest girl in the family because I was not the petite one that sister and mom are. My sister was the cheerleader and I was the artist...Anyway because of it, I struggled with my self-image and weight my whole life. Looking back on it I have to laugh...I thought I was fat at 133lbs. Oh to see THAT again :)
