Anyone Else Lose 70+

bkennedy1612

I'm fairly new to the site, but I was wondering if anyone else has been able to lose 70+ lbs in 6-7 months. I want to look like I used to look in high school, and I was just wondering if anyone had pictures of a weight loss that they have that is similar...

I know this sounds so crazy, but when I see other peoples success, it pushes me even harder to keep going. It's like right around this time at night that I used to sit and snack, and now I'm trying very hard to keep myself focused with other things. I am trying to hard to do this. I want this weight gone, and I want this weight to be just a bad memory. I don't want my daughter to be embarrassed of me when she gets older....this may be out of line, but I am 22 years old and I want to be a MILF :bigsmile:

Any motivators out there??!!!

Thanks in advance!

I have lost 130 lbs in 11 months. But I still have a long ways to go so it came off pretty fast at the beginning. But anything is possible if you want it bad enough. Make sure to add exercise in as well. Good luck on your journey! :happy:

I've lost 70 lbs since January of this year. Its SO doable, you just have to focus and never give up no matter how many times you mess up or over eat etc... Its not a race, always remember that and it will workout for you eventually. How much work and commitment you put in will determine how quick it happens. It will however happen!

Good luck!

Not quite - I'm at 53 pounds lost in just over 6 months. I've had a lot going on this past month and have slacked off some - starting to motivate again, but I should have been about that by now, had I kept on the right track...
Good luck, you can do anything you put your mind and heart to!

I've lost 75 lbs since January. You can do it if you stay focused and always have your goal in mind each and every time you pick up that fork! Good luck to you!

I lost 102 pounds in 8 months. It is very possible if you stick with it.

I've lost about 120-130lbs since February on this year (about 60 since joining MFP). It takes dedication, but anyone can do it.
