Hi, I lost 50 lbs last year and gained 70 back. I am doing something different this time that i believe is more sustainable long term. I would like a friend as dedicated as I am.

About two years ago, I lost almost 80 pounds in 6 months, but I gained it all back. At the time, I was overexercising, and basically starving myself. Now, I'm eating about 1900 cals a day, and walking, walking, walking... with some weights added in. I'm not really in any rush, but I would like to lost 20 more pounds by June 1st so I can say I'm under 300. It feels good to not have a 3 in front of your weight.

Yes I need to lose 100+ lbs. I have lost about 30 in the past with Weight Watchers, but I got tired of having to count points and I wasn't really exercising like I should have been.. but now my doctor put me on Belviq, and I can already tell a difference in my eating habits and I have only been taking it for 2 days! I know that my sound ridiculous but I was constantly hungry and now I'm not. I had to make myself eat breakfast this morning.. I really hope that I can lose the weight. And good luck to all of you trying to be healthier!0

I started a life change in August of 2013 with the goal to lose 130 pounds. I had lost 90 up until October and have recently gained 25 lbs back this winter.. With the weather being nice again I am finding my second wind so to speak and it's time to finish this goal.. 65 lbs to go.. I believe We Can It!!!

Your story is exactly like mine. Last year i started in May and lost 50 pounds in a few months but i was only eating 1400 calories a day and i would exercise with a group for 2 hours a day 6 days a week. My body went into starvation mode and i plateaued for MONTHS. This time i am eating 2200 calories a day and will start walking soon.0 -
I started March 1st and have lost about 14 lbs. I still have over 100 to go. Determined not to quit this time!0

I recommitted to MFP last august and have lost between 25 to 30 lbs (right now I am struggling) I have 100 lbs to go. I am concentrating on getting past that 30 lb mark and breaking my barrier.

I LOVE THIS APP!! the barcode scanner is a life saver. I know i have over 100 lbs to lose, but this time around i am not going to focus on the scale or numbers. I will get weighed every three months when i go see my doctor and thats it. This time i am only trying to get healthy and feel better. I want to walk to class without being winded climb stairs without my chest hurting. Lol I want to be able to put on my shoes comfortably. Those are my goals. I dont care about the numbers...bainsworth1a wrote: »I recommitted to MFP last august and have lost between 25 to 30 lbs (right now I am struggling) I have 100 lbs to go.

Started a strict diet on Ash Wednesday, lost 114lb so far. After Easter, re-evaluated the plan, and added some exercise (I was injured and couldn't). I have about 85lb to go.0

Just be careful with strict diets, they are hard to stick to and even harder to maintain long term. That was part of my downfall last time. Either way good luck with your journey I am rooting for you!0 -
I need to lose 170 lbs I'm still in denial that I'm gaining weight and my husband is oblivious to my weight gain, in the 4 years we've been married I've gained 200 lbs while he's lost weight. I need some motivation.0

I most definitely do. I've lost about 72 so far. Need to lose a total of 133 (give or take). I'm also looking for dedicated friends so anyone is free to add me. 0

This year I turned a new leaf and committed to making healthy choices - I needed to lose over 120ish pounds. So far this year I've lost 40 pounds. Logging food and exercise every single day.
Great community here to help with accountability and support!
Happy to connect!

I started the journey back in Feb 2014. I lost about 50 lbs and then during the fall and winter months I this gained back about 18 of it. This Feb I started doing cardio kickboxing and eating better. Then in early March I started really restricting my sugar intake and at the same time started using MFP. Now I'm back to the 50 lb loss and I feel great. I still have somewhere around 110 - 125 lbs to go. I know I can do it and so can you!! The cardio kickboxing has been great, as I have never, ever pushed myself physically before. I am almost 48 with 2 grown kids and 2 teenagers. I walked in that gym at 300 lbs and it was the best thing I have ever done!! There is alot I still can't do, but there is alot I can do that I couldn't do when I started! It sounds like you are dedicated this time around. You can do it!! We all can!!0
