    Hi all, l'm finally motivated to lose weight and to improve my health. I know 100 lbs seems daunting, but I feeling that it is attainable. Needing support from like minded people and those who have been in my situation.

    Hi, Betty! My name is Lisa. I'm 5'2 and 243.8lbs. I started at 262 just a few weeks ago. My goal isn't set in stone yet but I know I don't want to be over 160 which would be a total loss of 100 pounds. I can sympathize with you on the need for people looking to lose 100+ pounds of weight. I, too, am looking for the same people.

    Well, if you'd like, you can add me. I'm very motivational so I write on walls daily and usually every post. If you aren't interested in communicating, then I don't think I'm the right friend to add. Everyone on my timeline speaks A LOT and frequently. Any who, I wish you the BEST in your endeavors!

    Count me in this group also :) I would like to lose between 100 - 110 lbs myself :) I had found a weight lifting program a few months ago that I was really enjoying and losing weight on, but I hurt my back while lifting my dog into the tub ugh - still painful but much better than it was. I'm going to be getting back on the workouts probably next week but I don't want to overdo my back. My husband bought me a Ninja blender a few weeks ago and I'm now addicted to healthy smoothies, I figure one step at a time :D The workout program I'll be using is Body Beast along with doing HIIT workouts 3 days a week. I would like to lose this in one years time :)

    Chiming in as one more who had lost 105 so far, 15 months. Once you get started and get your eating routine established, it can pretty smoothly. My biggest challenges were things in life and health that slowed me down. LOSING WEIGHT IS EASIER THAN STAYING FAT!

    There is an MFP group for losers 100+ Without surgery.

    Hello! I am in the same boat of trying to lose 100lbs. I am well on my way but have reached a slump, and I have gained 5lbs back. Now I am ready to fully commit to losing the weight again. I have been on MFP since March but never reached out to anyone, I think making friends on here may be the key to staying motivated! Feel free to friend me, I would love to make motivating partners!

    I have a little over 100 I want to lose. I am not looking at the total number. I am setting mini goals and am just looking for the scale to keep going down every week by making changes to my eating and exercise. I have relapsed before by getting overwhelmed by the total number and seeing how far I still had to go. Now, the downward trend is what I'm truly striving for. Time be damned.

    I'm a newbie with 100 pounds to lose as well. Love to have friends and support, regardless of where you are on your journey, that know how it feels to be overwhelmed with the task at hand.

    100 pounds to lose, infinite confidence and pride to gain by doing something hard.

    One day at a time is all we can do! I have 100+ to loose and it seems so out of reach. Making small goals makes things easier! Kept it up

    I have more than 100 to lose, but I am not sure what my goal weight is until I get there. I have lost 50 so far, and 30 since starting mfp. I have had some bumps in the road, but I feel so much better. I have not worn pants in a long time, because my legs are so large, but my skirts and my underwear no longer stay up and my blouses fall off my shoulder. Progress is a process.

    You can do this, it took me 13 months to lose 111lbs. It's a journey not a race. You have come to the place, good luck.
