Closing in on 100# loss!

Hello! I have been on my weightloss journey for quite a while now. I started off at 276# in 2010. I had my son in 12/2008 and separated from my husband in 2010. I put weight on quickly in those short years. I have tried alot of different strategies to lose weight, and now after years of loss and gain I know it comes down to calories in/calories out. I was down to 187, but I put a little back on due to relaxing my habits and not moving enough over the last couple of weeks. For motivation my boyfriend is planning a party to celebrate 100# loss on 9/14/2013. That gives me like 6 weeks to lose around 14#. I have no doubt I can do it, I just need some help staying motivated. I am looking for friends who sign on often to help me stay on track. A little moral support, you know? I would love to add people, and know your journeys as well!

    Well done - you can do it. :)
    I'm almost at the 100lb loss myself - those last ones are hard...

    The end is hard! I feel tired of watching what I eat and scheduling excersize, but for the most part I have made good sustainable lifestyle changes. Also I feel like I look so much better I could just stay here forever but no! I did not lose this much and work this hard to settle!
