Wanting weightless buddies ( who wants to lose at least 100 lb.)

L0veM3

I am new to this group, and I am not trying to discriminate against the ones who just need or want to lose like 20 lb. I mean you go girl/boy, but I have let myself go quite a bout and I need/want people who have at lease 100 lb. to lose because thats is the area of what I want and we could work on it together, and with the fact of the great depression I inherited from my dad, (its a strong thing too) I can't have someone that weighs 100 lb. soaking wet telling me I can do the things they can do if I would just try harder. I have arthritis and most of the time I am in pain, but i work through it a lot of the times, just a few times I can't.
With that all being said come one join me friend me, we will have challenges and thing to work together, make it fun.

I'm in! I'm 38, have 120 to lose and also have arthritis and degenerative disc disease in my back. I'm quite familiar with pain and trying to work through it. Sometimes it work...sometimes it doesn't.

I have 125 to lose still. I can relate to your pain.

It is so hard to find a balance between people treating you like you can't do anything "just take a set of stairs, or restorative aquasize" and people who don't understand that you are working hard in your workouts, you just physically can't do a push up on your toes or sprint up the stairs yet. It's not an effort thing.

I only have 35 more lbs to lose but I can't jog so I kind of get it. However, whenever someone gives me diet advice, I always, ALWAYS listen to the skinny person.

otter_kat

Same here.

However, did that once a few years ago and ended up trying a spinning class. Broke two bikes at the first class, (all the loosening and tightening got a little carried away and the seat came off one and some side piece off another, not permanent but we did have to search for popped off pieces on the floor) and thought the class members were going to kill me.

Btw. I have about 150 to lose. Kate, from Missouri, age 33. Librarian, mom, redhead, fast food eater, 5'2" 280lbs.

In the past 4 yrs. I've had 2 kids, pregnant fairly close together, so gains with each kid, but no loss in between. These two were my 2nd and 3rd children. After having my first who is 13 now, it took 2 yrs. to lose that and lots of money on group weight loss challenges at the gym, personal training and eating basically chicken breasts, wok veggies and salsa. I don't have the money or time to spend like I did with just one. Looking to focus more on simple clean foods and kick the fast food habit.

Also have hypothyroidism that developed sometime in the last 6 yrs. Meds aren't leveled, but working on it.

Started with Jillian Michaels app, as I love her but found this one to be more comprehensive for food logging. For years I used myfooddiary.com

Right now i am ticked off because my weight is such that I am having trouble with working out and foot pain. Got great new Saucony running shoes for over pronation and some great inserts and still having lots of trouble. Mad at myself for the weight causing these problems which also affect my ability to lose. It seems like the uphill battle is already hard enough...

Totally agree! I remember being able to do those things and it is so frustrating to just struggle against my own body that can't perform. An uphill battle beyond just sweating no and working your muscles.

I have about 115 lbs to lose. It's been hard trying to break up with sugar and salt aka candy and chips. I don't have any friends using this app or trying to lose weight so all the wonderful people on this site are my favorite

jenready

Feel free to add me. I still have about 100lbs left to lose.

jkreutzfeldt

You can add me- looking for more friends to help motivate each other. I just reached the point where I no longer have over 100 pounds to lose (yay!). I started out at 240, and am down to 209. I'd like to lose around 80-90 more.

Being down 30 pounds so far is great, but I'm waiting for that moment when myself or someone else looks at me and says "wow! You've lost so much weight!"
I thought I'd be able to notice it more after 30 pounds, but oh well. : )

kywy84

My name is Kylene from Ontario I need to lose 150lbs. Anyone can feel free to add me as a friend. I am new to the Groups page and discussions but I am sure I will figure it out and feel comfortable sharing with others soon.

GatsbyMonroe

Anyone feel free to add me. I am a 31 year old female from Georgia. I am 5'1" and 300 lbs. Need to lose a total of 175 lbs. according to my doctors. I have adolescent onset RA that was diagnosed when I was 15. I also have been a lifelong sufferer of Chronic Pancreatitis. I like to find humor in our journey but I also know that sometimes I just want to talk about how hard it is. The one thing I find when talking with naturally thin people is that they just don't get it. So please feel free to add me if you would like.

donnarbolton

I need to drop 126 lbs to reach my goal weight. And on many days I find it hard to get motivated and could use a lot of help. If u want u could add me as a friend cuz to be honest I like someone to tell me to get my *kitten* off the couch and get moving. I also made a page on fb call It's a Life Change Not a Diet if anyone want to join. We all could use the help.

I'm right there with you all! I'm Erin, 32, from New Hampshire. I have about 130lbs to lose. I also struggle with depression and arthritis. I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis when I was a freshman in college.

SaoirseLass

I know exactly what you mean. I just got on myfitnesspal but in it for the long haul. I'm here because I LOVE my body and want to be healthy and active again. 117+ pounds is my goal. I've got hypothyroid, PCOS, insulin resistance, anemia, and significant permanent back issues. Anyone who gets the struggle, please add me! Trying to build up my encouragement brigade!

Americanbabydoll

I need weight loss buddies too. I am aiming to lose 123 pounds. I'm 32 years old and some days I feel 30 years older from all my pain. I have high blood pressure, upper and lower chronic back issues, depression, PTSD, OCD, panic attacks. I think some of these things will get better if I can lose to a healthy weight. My family is behind me in this but they don't understand where I am coming from. They are all healthy and happy. I also want to be happy and healthy.

chucktaylor78
