    welcome Danielle and good luck. I'm looking to lose a similar amount. Just keep logging your food and take up some exercise, no matter how small. just don't give up, use the boards to motivate you on. the people on here are great!

    I am right there with you. I've always been a little 'pudgy' but when i realized I had hit the obese category, I couldn't believe it. So my goal is similar to yours to lose almost 100 pounds, starting with a few at a time. I'm hoping by the time my husband returns from his year long deployment to Korea that I'll have lost at least 60. So if you need support or motivation let me know. I'm there for you

    welcome you cna do it. I did have that goal untill I read on the bmi tracker that its not always accurate for anyone under 5 foot and I am 4 11 so I wonder how accurate it is. At 166 right now Im still obese. I started at 200

    I probably have a similar amount to lose so if you want to add me as a friend we can get through this together! I've lost 6lb since I started back on here on 26th July and I'm hoping to have lost 10lb in August (so another 8.5lb to go)
