    i too have 100+ lbs to go...last year i lost 20+ lbs but regained everything back. I'm currently at 4 lbs lost...not much but its a start. Hope people don't mind if I add them even though this isn't my post. I just think that all of us who have 100+ lbs to lose could support each other because we're all on the same boat.

    Everyone on here is so supportive, thank you so much.
    So many times I've joined websites for support and hear 'well just don't eat for a couple weeks and exercise, it's not hard'
    I really appreciate it, a lot!
    I've gotten a TON of friend requests and messages saying that I can do it, and thank you so much! YOU inspire me to do my best to loose this weight (:

    I'm definitely with you on the 100+ lbs goal :) I've had my good days and I've had my bad, but since joining MFP its definitely been more good ones! so many people here are so positive and supportive even little comments like "WTG" or "^5" give me that little push to keep it moving. I've been dedicated "you can't stop my go" attitude... Sooo many people on here have been inspiring - feel free to add me :)

    I'm right there with ya on the 100+ to lose!! We can do this!! I am doing good most days, but then ocassionally cheat. Like Saturday I had 3 pieces of pizza (1 entire piece and just the toppings of the other two) so I was aware that I endulged and I ate lite the next few days. It's not about stopping enjoying food all together, but being aware of what and how much you are eating!!!

    Kick fear in the face and post your weight.

    Don't let anything hold you back.

    If you mess up today, don't worry as long as you wake up on this side of the dirt you have another chance to do it right!

    Above all SMILE :happy: , cause you are beautiful!

    I could have wrote each of these post! I am new currently at 280 want to be at 175. 175 is not my recommended weight but I think it is more realistic than 135 and is a good goal. I have researched how many calories a woman who does not get much exercise and weighs 175 takes in, and have decided not to go over that. I also plan to start exercise next Monday , wed, fri, very very slow exercise but at least I will be moving any advice would be appreciated.

    Feel free to add me. I am new here but not new to the challenge as my profile states. I lost @ 140 before joining and have 90 more to go.

    I think an important part is to give yourself a break. You did not get here over night you will not get back to where you want overnight.. Once I eliminated that concern I had much more success..

    Good luck..

    Hi LGH!

    I'm not trying to lose that much but I definitely want to commend you!! And the truth of the matter is we're all trying to make a lifestyle change. I know I need the motivation :smile: I'm new to the community would enjoy having you as a friend if that's alright.
