Welcome to MFP.1

Welcome - Only 14lbs for me, but I find dieting bloody hard - If you have any tips, i'll be most greatful !3

Me too! I started at 297 & trying to get to 150. The elliptical is best thing for me. I have a toddler who won't let me go to the gym & he's too big for me to push in a stroller & walk. I lost over 40lbs 2 years ago with one but gained that back & more when hubby talked me into selling my machine so we wouldn't have to move it. Facebook has awesome yard sale groups. I just got a "new to me" elliptical for $100. Already down 2lbs in 3 days on it.9

I have lost 62 pounds, but I still have like 80 to go added you2

I started with 160 to lose, and have lost 53 so far.
Anyone is welcome to add me. Be warned though, I post a lot... and not always diet/exercise/fitness related stuff.5 -
Well I'm 272lbs and the lightest I've ever been as adolescent was 245lbs.
So honestly I'd be fine with being 250 again, but wouldn't be against shooting for 200 or less.
Right now I'm at the "Just don't give up exercising" stage. XD4 -
I have 134 lbs to lose just to get to 200. Anyone feel free to add me!2

So excited to see all the responses! I welcome any new friends regardless of the amount you have to lose so glad there's such an awesome community here!2

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!

That's also what I try to do, eat healthy regularly but if I want a small bite of something I don't deny myself. It helps with the temptation and doesn't make me want to eat bad later!3

230 here, down to 225 now buT eventual goal is 150. My main issue? Portion control. I struggled with eating issues when younger, I also wasn't allowed to eat junk so now that I'm an adult and can shop for myself, I've made the wrong choices and binge.4 -
I'm in the same boat! Looking to lose 120-150. I'm looking for motivators for myself, and people I could motivate any way I can. I sent you a friend invite.3

I added you back! Excited to keep each other motivated ☺️0
