Hello!
I've been using MFP for years but have never done anything in the community area or tried to find friends here for more motivation. Maybe that's my missing key? =D
I'm working on losing 110 pounds (18 down so far!) so I'd love to find friends that also have a good bit to lose.
Add me!

Hi. I added you2

Curently hoping to lose 65ish and then figure out where to go from there. Always wanted a tattoo but shrinkage and distortion from losing weight has scared me off so I figure that'll be my big reward. Add me as I just started fresh and have no friends. 1

I need to drop about 60 lbs! and truly need accountability and motivation. I am like gung-ho yee-ha I'm gonna do this in the beginning and by the end of the first week I'm like "yeah I'm bored with that, I don't have to count calories....." and there is all goes...... Feel free to add me! 1

I know exactly what you mean. I'm really trying to just make this "Well, this is my life now." haha0 -

Hi! Congratulations on your progress! Feel free to add me. I'm new to MFP, but I'm definitely NOT new to dieting and food issues. My ultimate goal is to lose 170 lbs, though honestly I'm just taking it day by day so as not to get overwhelmed. I've lost 31 lbs since I started tracking on MFP in January, and I'm excited because so far this has been the easiest time I've had starting a weight loss journey ... I'm determined to make this a lifestyle change vs a quick fad/temporary "diet" mindset this go-round! This is a big journey, and any support/motivation/commiseration is always welcome! 4

I have *so many* pounds to lose. This isn't my first round on MFP, I've been lurking for 4 years and before that, I successfully lost 40-50 pounds. Which came back with interest. Lets do it!3

I agree with you 100%! I'm definitely not saying that losing 10 or 20 pounds is hard, but it just can't compare to the long long looooooooong road to lose 10x that much. I'm adding you!
P.S. And congrats on the major weight loss so far!!1 -

I doubt this is the first rodeo for the majority of people (unfortunately). I've also lost 40+ pounds before and then fell off that dreaded wagon and got dragged behind it picking weight up along the way. Struggling to stay ON it can be rough!1 -
Well I have been using MFP for a little over a week now. I have not weighed since starting but I can tell by the way my clothes fit I have lost something. Using MFP has made me aware of what I am putting in my mouth. It isn't easy but I am working on it. I also walk on the treadmill at least 5 days a week. It isn't much but I know I have to start somewhere. I would be happy with loosing 50 lbs but I have set short term goals and long term goals. Would like to loose 10 lbs by my cousins daughters wedding. Work towards 50. Then ultimately shoot for 75, but if I can make it to 50 I would be ecstatic.4

I think starting those smaller goals is a great idea. I cut all mine up in 10 pound increments and I know it makes it all feel a little less scary! 1
