As someone who has lost close to 100 lbs (most was 260), I will say you can do it and this website, if you stick with it, will save your life.

I'm new I've not got any female support so feel free to add me . My husband met me when I was 8 stone and I'm 12 stone now . Would like to get back to 8 stone that's 56 lbs . I've a long way to go. I feel vile at the moment . Going to give it my best. I'm doing Insanity dvds to exercise at home as I have a little baby to care for and I work from home . I think you look great by the way. I'm sure we can do this. I'm ever so unhappy been the size I am .

You may add me, but my goal is to lose ten pounds. Then another ten...I give up when I realize how much...so, it is just ten pounds, in two months...That is my goal.

I have been on here for awhile, gone up and down. It's quite a journey. Just keep at it. I commend you for your positive attitude. I am now needing to lose about 60 pounds myself and I am getting to it. If you'd like to be friends on here just add me. I am trying to make sure I log in daily again and doing the right things. Good luck on your journey!:)

You can definitely lose the weight!! Welcome. Please feel free to add me for support. I like for my friends to be active on MFP.

Welcome to MFP. The support from 'friends' and religiously logging your food and exercise are key to success. Once your logging becomes a habit, it is easy and quick.
Every morning before email, before Facebook, I log onto MFP. You can do this!

I am also looking at loosing a lot. Probably 100+. But focusing on smaller goals bits at a time. Could also really use some great female support. Don't have many I can talk to about my struggles.

I am 21 and I have around 100 pounds to lose. It is a struggle to lose it within a college environment but I have only one more semester left to make a change.

eatnojunk

That is good idea to have monthly goal I have about 70lbs to lose so I'm just going
to focus on 25 to start. Be kind to yourself. Hugs

CinthyN

Go ahead and add me. This is an awesome site and folks you meet here will support you. One thing that I have found to work is to stay true to yourself and be accountable. All the best!

glivinlife

Hi ... I still need to lose 124lbs. My trainer suggested using mfp so here I am!
I believe there is strength in numbers so please feel free to add me if you want!

spoonwalker

I've set 10 lbs per month and if I go over great! Remember that if your lifting weights and/or doing lots of cardiovascular you will be building muscle! Muscle burns more calories (fat) and is less dense than fat. My first month I lost 10, I gained 9 back the second month but had an overall loss of 17 inches! Just because the scale goes up does not mean your gaining fat!! Try not to focus on the scale too much ( a big personal obstacle for me) and focus on your clothes fitting better and living a healthier lifestyle

It does take awhile -- but I am almost there --- things will be slow as you stated re: weights / muscle etc. --- Best wishes... feel free to add
