    I originally had exactly 100 lbs to lose. The first time I did this, I lost 70lbs, and then I lost my dogs to diabetes and cancer and I just became so depressed that I gave up. I gained 40 lbs back, and I was still gaining until a few months ago. I'm trying to keep myself motivated, but it's so hard. Life just keeps throwing you curve balls and it's really tough to stay on track.

    I lost the weight the first time using the xbox 360 Kinect, but my TV recently broke and we don't have the money for a new one, so I haven't been able to get back into my regular workouts. I'm trying to find other ways to get in some activity until we can get a new TV. I bought a FitBit in an effort to motivate myself to walk more, but had issues with that too. It seems no matter what I do, life finds a way to make it more difficult.

    So feel free to add me, I need all the motivation I can get! lol

    Hello everyone!! MY name is Tierra i am 25 and I also have about 100 pounds to lose! I have been married 7 years and we have been trying to have a baby for 7 years as well! My ultimate reasoning for losing weight is to have a baby and to have a happy, healthy pregnancy! I am looking for friends as well! you don't have to be on the journey to motherhood though! I am just looking for friends with the same weight loss goals!!

    although my goal is 70 I'd still like to inspire you all as you do I so you all can add me as we take this journey together, I became over weight in high school from birth control and over eating with lack of exercise. I to dream of carrying a healthy child and in order to do that I'd like to lose weight first,

    Hello. Had twin boys December 2012. Did not realize how hard it would be to get weight off. Only lost 20 in a year. Gained 80lbs total. 40th birthday in August would love to look much better by then. I really need support. Have been large most my life. I would like to nip this in the bud once and for all. Good luck all of you!!

    I am pretty much in the same boat as the rest of you.
    Last May I started a new job and in July they had an internal weight loss challenge. During one week I was the top loser, but over all I was probably in the top 10. It is hard to compete against people who can loose 1 or 2 pounds and that is 5% of their weight loss. Yet I have to loose 5 or 6 just to get 1%.
    The company started another weight loss challenge in January but this time it is competing against other companies and an outside company is doing the meetings and paperwork. We started Monday. I brought my wife with me for moral support even though she doesn't work with my company. They welcomed her anyway and we are on this journey together.
    I have lost almost 30 pounds since may and hope to lose more this go around.

    I have about 60 lbs to lose, but my story is the same....lose gain. Lose and gain again. Please add me for support. I'm new here, but have logged on every single day since I started. My diary is open ( I think) and I am super serious about living healthier.


    Anyone else, feel free to add me. The more the merrier, right. :wink:
