    I need to lose 90 - 100. I can certainly use another buddy to encourage me as I encourage them :-)

    I just sent you a friend request.

    Hello,

    I too am tall at 5'11. I too used to weigh 220 and felt good in my size 12's. I have gained about a 126 lbs since then and need to start taking it off. I'm 37 and am married with two children. One step daughter and my daughter.

    We could always use more friends!!

    Krysta click on the red number. Appears at the top of the page near your login name you will see a red number beside the grey person icon and/or next to the grey envelope icon. Those red numbers will replace the grey zeroes, indicating how many friend requests or messages you have, which you have not opened or answered. Alternatively go to My Home, I think friend requests appear there as well.
    I have about 72 pounds to lose so I need encouragement and I will send you a friend request as well. It will be tough but we can do this. Thanks!

    I'm hoping to lose about 150 that would get me down to 190 so this is a very very looooooong journey for me, and I have no one to help me here at home so I need a little motivation that's for sure, I had a very horrible relationship with my first sons father, he never let me leave the house and I didn't eat only at nights, which is bad for you so I gained almost 100 lbs then got pregnant and gained 40 so its not a pretty sight ya know

    My name is gloria. I'm 42 & live in Pittsburgh. I started using MFP on September 5, 2013. My starting weight was 275. Today is day 184 & I'm at 192 ( 83 lost ). My goal is 139... 53 to go !!!

    I go to gym daily for 1 to 2 1 / 2 hours. I record everything !!! I gave up all soda on my start day. Last month I gave up all caffeine. The next thing I want to give up is equal. I still have bad days where I can & do eat 2 boxes of Girl Scout cookies ...

    I have multiple sclerosis & I need to lose this weight before I have problems walking.

    I post my progress on Facebook weekly. This is a huge incentive to keep losing.

    Good luck to all of us !!!

    Hi there!! I'm 44 yrs old....and have just restarted.....again....I have well over 100lbs to lose. I have been playing around with this app so to speak.....and now I want to get serious....today was day 1 going to gym before work. I'm soooo tired of gain, lose, gain, lose...etc.....hate seeing people that I haven't seen in a while because I have no idea how much I weighed when I saw them last. Hahaha......so..I say all that to see if I could have some weight loss buddies too....I feel pretty alone in this journey...I want to help others, and have others help me!! WE can DO this!!!
