    I'd love to add anyone serious about this journey. I lost 70lbs using MFP about 3 years ago and fell off the wagon after a lot of life changes. Now I've gained it all back (I know the blame is all my own self) and am determined to get back into it. I started back about a week ago at 259lbs and am looking to lose at least 100 pounds.

    I am 170 trying to get to 140/130 and one tip that works for me is just knowing that a little bit of something good will come out of it each day, you may feel more energetic, or just happier, but just know that the # on the scale doesn't matter, the motivation will get you through this, stay strong, hope you achieve your goals!!!

    Please feel free to add me. I started off with a goal to lose 100 pounds several months ago and so far am down 30 pounds.
    The things working for me are:
    *get a food scale/measuring cups and spoons and measure everything you eat...no guesstimating!
    *log everything
    *if you're not physically active, start off slow for short periods of time and work your way to longer periods as time goes by

    As long as you hold yourself accountable for what you eat and the exercise you do, it can be done. Good luck in your journey!

    I've lost a little shy of 100 pounds, and this advice is spot on. I also always advise people to log for a few weeks to assess their eating habits, so that they can make small changes. (Like, first I stopped drinking calories except for creamers, then creamers, and then I started tackling how I structured my lunch, etc.)

    You do not have to change everything at once, and small changes will add up fast. :)
