    Feel free to add me as well. I have just over 100 to lose myself. I am determined to experience 145 just once in my life, even if it is just for a day. :wink: We can do this!

    I am definitely am aiming for around the same goals as you. For at the top end of the normal BMI scale, for my height, I'm needing to lose 120. So my goal is 120-150 pounds (to be at the bottom of the "normal")

    Feel free to add me. I need all the encouragement I can get!

    Also looking to lose 100 lbs I'm finding the community helps greatly. The more I spend time with other people with similar goals the more focused i seem to be and the less slip ups I have. Adding you now.

    Wow, this just reminds me of when i was weighing around 280. I now weight 225, and need to work off 25lbs to reach my healthy weight goal. Its funny how little work it takes to gain it, and unnoticable it can get until its too late. How much i gained and am has hit me like a ton of bricks though honestly. I was 235 and said ive done enough.. Time to get healthier and make better lifestyle choices. God bless you all in your journey, there is no doubt in my mind that you all can easily lose this stupid weight. Just takes eating properly, which will fill you up very full, and making a 500-1000 cal deficit in your diet after figuring out your recomended bmi. Its a lot of changes, plus the feeling of getting extra water and excersize, but its like a drug. Just stay safe, and contact a doctor and nutriant doctor before moving on. Only 200 bucks to start off right! Good luck!

    .. Oh i forgot..the 1000 cal deficit includes the 300-500 cal workout sessions. But first, i would just talk to a doctor first as i see some of you have a very large number to lose! Gl.

    I'm on a similar journey, I am going to lose another 100 lbs this year, already lost 24lbs since I started with a PT in mid November.

    If I can share what I've found, denying yourself food or foods doesn't work - eat clean, unprocessed food for your main diet & moderation on the rest - stay in your MFP target & log everything - even if it puts you over!

    Exercise is everything & don't shy from the weights as well as cardio - it accelerates your base metabolism rate & really helps.

    Try not to "lose 100 lbs ... rather, lose 1lb but 100 times" ... don't know why but that makes me feel better

    Add if you wish... I don't ramble on quite as much but do log every day!

    Tim
