    Hey, All! I am new to MyFitnessPal (Just joined 6 days ago), and would love to start making connections with the community! I started at 271, last November, and I'm now at 244, but I am trying to get to around 160. I've tried doing this alone for so long, but every day is a struggle. Anyone in the same boat, or a similar boat heading in the same direction, Add me!

    I started my journey at 387.4. Down to 295 with a goal of 180. I only weigh myself once per month and I just started to work with a nutritionist. Feel free to contact me for support and fellowship.

    Please check out the Gymfinity Towel! This super absorbent athletic towel conveniently placed around the neck like a scarf makes it easier to wipe sweat and partake in physical activities without picking up or putting down a regular gym towel. The circular quick dry towel is a great accessory for various forms of working out, whether lifting weights, hiking, dancing, running on a treadmill or taking a spin class.

    Hey! I'm 24, 5'2" and 246. I'd like to lose 100+ pounds as well - but really any amount would be a great start! I'm looking for friends to help keep me on track. I joined MFP a few months ago.

    My biggest piece of advice, take it or leave it. Is this. Diets don't work! You have to make a change for life. You will have to eat this way for the rest of your life, and until you come to terms with that you won't succeed. You have to change your mind set from "I can't have that" to "I can have that but I don't want it"

    Stop being obsessed with restricting calories.

    The biggest lie you can tell you self is this : Everything in moderation is fine.
    NO!

    Junk food is junk food and should be avoided. Junk food is high in calories and has little to no nutritional value, and leaves your body starving for nutrition.

    Eat Whole Real Natural food. Grow up put your big girl/boy pants on. Eat vegetables. You may hate it at first. But your tastes WILL change. You have to heal your unhealthy relationship with food.

    You will lose weight, and experience an overall improvement of health issues you may have. When your body heals it heals completely!

    Get away from Sugar! Artificial sugar, real sugar any kind of sugar. It's killing you. We consume way to much sugar. 2-3x as much as we consumed 100 years ago. (in some people even more than that)

    Fat does not make you fat! - Sugar does!

    You can't out exercise a bad diet, and until you get your eating under control you will never be successful!! Processed foods are full of chemicals, like MSG. These foods are designed to make you crave them! They create these foods in labs, to make people want them, so they will continue to buy them. They don't care about your health.

    I have lost over 140lbs, and kept it off for 4 years. I may not be a doctor or a nutritionist, but I have read and read and read and trial and error of my own journey. and these are the basics of what I feel will help anyone be successful at losing weight. I won't reply back to arguments. This is just my own thoughts on weight loss.

    You can add me, I've got 90 to go. Am really in the "zone" but my MO is to last 2-3 months and fall off the wagon! Would love to hear from any of you, we have to do this!!
