    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!!!

    Feel free to add me as well. I've got the same goal and while I've taken the first 30 off, I still have a long way to go.

    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. :)
