100 lbs to lose

KElayne

I just joined today. I have to lose 113 lbs just to hit the edge of normal weight on a BMI scale. I'd like to lose a bit more than that, but right now it's so daunting to even focus on that much I'm trying to look at it in little bits rather than the whole #. Could definitely use some friends since I'm brand new

I am right there with you guys. Feel free to add me as well. I would love some extra support and I can give it as well. We all have a long journey but it all strts with one small step...this site is my step!

Hi all

Brand new here, and I have about 100 to lose. Glad I found this thread!

I'm still here but haven't responded to the thread because I've been such a bad girl! I haven't even weighed myself for a couple weeks because I'm afraid I'll be too discouraged. On the other hand, that would probably be a great motivation for me to "get back in the saddle". I definitely need encouragement, just as I'm sending to all of you who need to lose that 100 pounds!

Hi everyone I am in the same position as you all. I want to lose 100+ lbs too.:embarassed: So far have only lost 3 lbs. I am finding it is very hard to stay within one's calorie intake. It makes me realize what I must have been eating before starting. Mind boggling. I would like to have friends, so please add me. I wish everyone good luck on your journey, hope to hear from you all soon. Patty

Hey Patty!

Trust me...when i started logging my food on this site it was like a slap in the face. I never dreamed that a chunk of cheese would be that many calories!!! This site has been an absolute positive tool for me and the best part...it's free!

I have been struggling to lose as well...when I first started out I actually gained a couple more pounds...but now I am seeing weight loss of 2 lbs a week. So far, the only adjustment I have made is tracking my food and making better decisions about what I eat. I never used to eat soup...now its a lunch time staple....normally 400 calories or less. I have to say I have also stopped eating cheddar cheese when stressed and I try avoiding potatoe chips...though I still do a few tortilla chips...replace them with carrots, celery or apple slices...you still get the crunch...just not the calories.

Good luck..stick with it and you will see results..I know you can do it.
