    I'd love to jump in too, please. I'm 5"1, and losing 100lbs would bring me low on the normal BMI. Realistically I'd be happy with about 80lbs, which is what I need to get comfortably into the normal range. I'm going to shoot for the whole 100lbs, though I doubt I can do it in a year.

    I've been through the whole lose weight/gain weight cycle twice before; made it to 136 about 10 years ago before I gained it back and more. This time I'm determined to do it properly, to get to goal and work at maintaining.

    Hey y’all! I’m late to the party but I just started MFP again. Was doing soooo well (was down 78lbs) and then got pregnant and gained it all and then some back!

    @Courtney4805 the things having babies does to our bodies! I'm not usually too bad during pregnancy, but when I'm nursing my body holds on to every calorie. I'm just finished breastfeeding twin boys, and I gained 22lbs from what I weighed after they were born.

    OSW: 203 (1st April 2018)
    UGW: 103
    CGW: 190
    Now: 196.4
    Progress so far: 6.6

    I had a good week of staying on plan, and my scales show a decent starting whoosh. I know it won't continue long, but it's really good for my motivation!

    I gained this week, BUT I will not let this gain discourage me. I am setting daily goals each day this week. Hopefully this will allow me to walk away with a loss come Sunday.

    MaelynMayhem, I'm only doing weekly weigh ins for this challenge. The dailies on Give me 10 days challenge is enough.

    Great progress this week, @tiabirdie56! You're so close to breaking through that 200 mark!

    @MaelynMayhem, I think whatever keeps you most motivated is fine. I'm just including the most recent two so that I can see my recent progress plus a record of my total loss to date. My thinking is that this is a long haul and I don't want my posts to get clogged up.

    @lexi3881 welcome! I know how you feel; starting, with so much work to do, is overwhelming. In my experience I am most successful when I figure out what my personal weak points are and work on those. For example, the meals I cook for my family are pretty healthy. I love snacks and treats, though. I've had to stop buying them cold turkey. You'll have it figured out in no time!

    I'm joining in.
    Hello everyone!
    I am 40 years old, 5'9" tall and I currently weigh 308 lbs. My highest weight was 330 and I have lost 22lbs since August 2017. My biggest challenge is portion control because I grew up with a large family that served large portions. I didn't realize until recently that even though I cut down on my portion sizes, it's still too much. When you've never known proper portion sizes it is a bit of a wake up call when you see the difference. So, along with exercising I am now counting my caloric intake and meal prepping every week. This has truly been helping me to understand what and how much I am eating.
    Thanks for having me here!

    Uodating early as I won't have access to a scale tmrw. Saw a 2lb loss this week, better than 0 last week! I missed my Vegas goal by 8 lbs but overall I'm doing well so won't sweat it. My goal this coming week is to maintain while on vacation. Keep it up everyone!
