    Where is everyone from? Im from southern ohio:) im up for having more friends on here so i can get encouraged and maybe even learn some new recipes. Being on a diet makes me hate chicken.. Lol, i eat so much of it. I work a full time job plus have a little hobby/job on the side helping my daughter make shirts. I have 2 kids and that has been my greatest accomplishment! I love being a mom! I have always done for others and never for myself and it makes it real hard to lose this weight. I have hidden behind it for so long and even have uses it to put distance between me and fun. I have a treadmill and some bands to use at home which my husband has provided for me but hard to make myself get on it. I dont understand it sometimes. Well if you are up to add new friends and get help I can surely try. And we can do it together:) encouragment is always good.

    I am just joining MFP again and thought joining a community might be a good idea. I hope I'm not too late to join this group of you wanting to lose 100+ pounds.

    I have recently gotten to my all time highest weight and really need to smarten up. I've been dealing with injuries and depression, so that hasn't helped, but no more excuses.

    Last month I weighed 288 lbs. Today, 284. I am quite tall, so my goal weight is 170lbs.

    Looking forward to doing this with you all!

    You need to lose on your schedule and on your plan. Anyone can lose lots of weight quick - but that is not sustainable and leads to yo-yo weight. You lose a bunch and gain it back plus more.
    -
    You also mention hating being on a diet. then you need to stop being on a diet. Dieting doesn't work at all. Eating less works. that is not about depriving yourself of something. If you focus on deprivation, once you quit the "diet" you go right back to where you were and more. Rather, this has to be about making different choices and living in a fundamentally different way in the long term.

    Chicken is not the answer. A diverse diet with smart choices, portion control and some exercise is the only way to change in a sustainable long-term way. I'm still learning how to do it myself.

    I know its a lifestyle change. I just have to make sure i dont go back to
    Food for comfort. My personal opinion is that I needed somethjng to hold me
    Accountable so I can start losing. I dont think i will win that competition but i will feel like a winner because the scale will move:)
  • Hi there! I have about 70 pounds to lose! You can add me :)

    Please add me, I really feel the need for support and friendship today, I want to lose 48kg, about 105 ponds. So far down 7.7kg but have hit a plateau. For two weeks that scale has not moved. I know stuff is happening because I had to get out smaller pants, but it us hard not to see a loss. I won't let it stop me keeping going but I feel so disheartened. Would love some friends for this journey
