I've got lots too loose (100++) and not much encouragement. Everyone says they support me but they don't really encourage me. My only hope is my boyfriend who has started making all my meals. I've never seen myself as a thin person. I've always been the overweight girl my whole life - it's spiraled out of control and I'm ready for a change. I've been with my boyfriend for two years now and we've talked marriage. I refuse to get married at this size! I have to do this. I've "attempted" loosing before but every time, after a month of no change I give up. I've faced depression in on and off in life and eat for comfort when "tragedy" strikes. What are some ways to get started on the right path and not quit? When the scale doesn't move, I shut down and get discouraged....

It's always great to have the support of others on the same journey... I too have 100+ lbs to lose. Would love to connect with others to support / motivate each other.

I know I need to lose over a hundred but I haven't settled on a number yet, I just want to be healthy; no more back aches, no more knee aches, no more feeling like I'm 65 when I'm only 29. Feel free to add me and I will do the same. Good luck to everyone on their journey!

I have about 100-150 lbs to loose. I am on a mission (and I promised my doctor) that by the end of June I will have lost at least 30lbs before she puts me on meds for cholesterol. Not something I want to happen at my age. I am quite determined to get this weight off.

I have over 150 to lose and have begun losing by tracking here. I am hoping to get weight loss surgery in the spring, however that will still require discipline and tracking to get where I want to go. Some view the surgery as cheating, but I know that I will still be working hard and needing the support to be successful. Add me please.

IF you get the surgery you will really have to make a lifestyle change. It is not a panacea. I have seen people eat their way clear through the impact of the surgery.

Bottom line is no matter how you do it you have to really want to do it - and want to do it for yourself - not for anyone else.

Don't focus on the scale. Focus on your intake. Use the app and record everything that you are eating. Don't kid yourself by not putting something down. then make better choices to keep inside your calorie goal. It takes 3000 calories to add or subtract one pound.

Don't set a goal of losing a bunch early. My first goals were simply to not gain more and to get used to recording things. So I set the app for maintaining the same weight at first. Then after a month I changed the goal to lose a pound a week. Then after 6 months I set the goal to lose 1.5 pounds per week.

All I have to lose is 1 pound. I just have to do that 200 times. So far I've lost that 1 pound 72 times as of this morning. I've also missed logging in my food the day I ate it (usually within a hour of eating and sometimes before( maybe 8 times in the last 13 months and then I got it logged the next day 4 days - the other 4 I was on a canoe trip and really couldn't.

You can do it. If you mess up a day - so what. Make the right choices the next day. Make the right choices the next meal. I can't cope with eating right the rest of my life - but I don't have to. All I have to do is to eat right for my next meal.

Okay Tough Question. How many of you have taken your "before' pictures? I know you feel embarrassed, because I do. But I want to be able to see my progress even if no one else ever sees them. So challenge for today is go take your BEFORE pictures.

I'm planning on doing it this weekend. I'm scared, nervous, slightly nauseated...

Hi everyone im new to mfp i need to lose 50lb i dont eat too much i eat the wrong foods mostly sugary foods i eat veg but not fruit. I dont drink enough water though either and i know i should. I've been tracking my calories on mfp for a few months and i eat 1600 a day that mfp recommends sometimes less. I struggle with finding motivation to exercise or i start and give up to easily if i cant see results so basically i wondered if anyone started out in my shoes and has managed to lose weight and change their attitude toward exercise.
