I would be thrilled to just be under 150 pound by my next birthday (July 25th). I too am creeping up to 40, next year will be 39 for me. Even though all the charts say I should weigh 130 I think somewhere around 140 to 150 I will be fine and feel comfortable in my own body and I think that weigth is maintainable. I have about 10 more pound to go before I hit my goal of 150 and I should be able to make that by next July and maybe even weight less.

Wish you the best!!
