I am 32 lbs into my goal of losing 100 lbs. I am DEFINITELY ALL IN and I am going to do this. There's my accountability. I started on January 9th 2017 at 307 lbs. Today I am 275. I am going to be 207 by this time next year.

If anyone else has this goal, please feel free to friend me and we can motivate each other. My diary is open to my friends and I also will support you any way I can to help you stay on track.

The amount of support and motivation you get from friends on MFP is amazing. It surely helps keep the momentum going. The more friends you have, the more motivation you can derive from them.

Even if you're not trying to lose that much weight - friend me and I will help keep you on track!

    Will add you, I started August 2016 at 308, now at 237 and on track to be hitting 208 or lower by this coming August so I can lose the first 100 in a year.. Another 70 to go after that, but no time frame for that goal.

    Great success and congrats to all of you. I was down to 230 last year from 278 and fell in love and gained to 261. Ugh. Starting back up and eating healthy again for me. Want to be healthy for my family and significant other. I'm all in. Major problem areas are carbs for me.

    Last may wen I lost my son, I started to comfort eat, I was 297.0 trying to loose, wen I got on the scale in jan. To see the scale at 314.4, I was even more devistated and knew it was time to get serious. So on jan.6th I started doing MFP, as of April 4th I am down to 288.2. My goal is to be 170.0. Soo yes I have alot to loose as well. By my 1 yr. Yr.of loose weight it would be nice to be 199.- 207.0.

    I'm exited for you!

    I started at 215 two years ago, and lost 40, but gained 30 back since then. I'm restarting my journey to 100 (healthy for my height!), and I'm twice as heavy. Sooo, long ways to go but I can do it :)

    And U2R2 I love the idea of that graphic.

    Yep. I hear ya. After losing 100lbs, I lost my mother to heart disease which put a hold on my weight loss for a while. I've finally climbed out of the dark hole and am kicking my own butt into gear.

    Let's do this!!

    To friend somebody, you click on their pic on the left. Another box will appear where you click on there name again. Once there profile shows up, there is a button that says, "add friend", or something like that.
