    Just started my journey to losing 100+ lbs. Main motivation is to avoid diabetes (runs in my family) and to get pregnant at a healthy weight. I can use all of the motivation and support I can get! Hope you don't mind if I add some of you as friends.

    I have just over 200 pounds to lose. I started just after Christmas and I weigh once a month. I exercise in the Community pool three days a week for a hour. My goal is to lose a 100 pounds by the end of October, but I have smaller goals set. I would like the support, motivation, and friends. It's much easier to lose weight when you have those I mentioned about than to do it alone. I will be a friend, support and motivate others as well. Please add me too?

    I need to drop at least 150 but I am setting small goals. please feel free to add me I can use the help and motivation. we can help each other

    My first goal was simply top stop gaining and be able to meet my calorie goal. After a month of that I actually lost a bit because I was not overeating. Then I started cutting the calorie goal down. I set intermediate goals of 15 pounds over 3-4 months. I needed short term wins.

    I have 175 lbs to lose. Sometimes when I think about the road ahead it's overwhelming. I would love more friends that can relate to having over 100 lbs to lose.
    Don't keep your eye looking down the road. Instead focus your attention and energy on one step at a time. if you focus solely on the 175 pounds you need to lose., you're going to end up getting frustrated and giving up. I speak from experience. I had a stroke on 8/18/2011; I weighed 340 pounds. I am 5'3" tall. on 12/31/14 I weighed 253.6; this morning, I weighed 255 :( but I also know that AF is coming soon, I'm bloated and am retaining water. I do not weigh myself daily, have no desire to, it's too discouraging to see the numbers go up and down. I weigh myself, on wednesdays- I call it WEigh in Wednesday. lol

    I basically eat what I want, I just exercise as much portion control as I can. I eat only whole grain breads and pastas, and drink unsweet tea,with stevia, my treat is an occasional coke zero, or Diet Mt. Dew. I am on a blood thinner, so some of my favorite foods I can only have in moderation, such as: dark green leafy veggies (kale, spinach,spring greens, romaine lettuce), broccoli, cauliflower, pink grapefruit, garlic, pomegranate, and ginger)- i have to limit soy products too. :/
    But anyway... Ideally I'd like to gt down to about 155-160; so about 80-10 pounds. the lowest I've gotten was diwn to 184.. and then I went thru a nasty divorce, a near 2 year relationshiop with an awesome guy, but he's travelling 3 weeks of every month and only home one week per month. Kinda hard to make it work, despite daily text messages, and nightly phone calls, it finally took it's toll on him. Yet he keeps telling me he still loves and who knows what the future holds. So, needless to say it's no wonder my weight keeps going up and down. Ugh... but Anyway, Deb, please feel free to add me.. we can do this!!!

    I'm 27 years old and am determined to lose 100 lbs.

    I was doing well with eating healthy and exercising daily in the beginning of 2014, but then I got busy and started making excuses, so I eventually completely stopped. Then I suffered a back injury which left in bed all day with excruciating pain. With rest and medicine, I soon progressed to a walker and then to a cane. I've been able to get around without the cane for two weeks now and only have minimal pain with certain movements.

    Today is my birthday, so I figure there's no better time than now to jump back into things. I'd love to have friends that will encourage me, as I will them. After all, journeys aren't fun when taken alone!

    I have no idea how to add people so feel free to add me. I lost 45 almost 2 years ago only to allow it to come back with 10 more. I need to loose about 130 to 150. I'm not very confident in my ability right now but I hope with a community, it will help. Love looking at the success stories, I always find that motivating.
