Turn 43 today and feelin pretty darn good. I'm very happy with my progress since I started lifting wts about 2 years ago. Still would like to get rid of that last bit of fat hiding my muscles, but it'll come in time. If any women out there are wondering about starting wts after 40, go for it, it was the smartest thing I've ever done and I can't believe the changes it's made to my body. I see a lot of women my age really putting on weight around the thighs and butt-what I call the middle age spread-- and that's where I've noticed the biggest change on myself....no more saddle-bags, no speading hips, flatter tummy. I actually shop in stores designed for younger people now, stores that i couldn't shop in even when i was one of those younger people. Soooo 44 here I come...no regrets!
