    I've done it. It's possible, but I started out over 300 lbs. The bigger you are, the fast you will lose.

    My goal is to lose 70lbs til the next September, is that unrealistic? Has anyone done it or is wanting to achieve the same? Would love to hear some success stories and find some friends with the same goals :)

    I need to lose about 50-60lbs (possibly more). I've just joined here a few days ago. Anyone can add me if they like. I need all the tips, advice I can get. x

    My goal is 86 lbs. I lost 42 last year, but gained it all back, plus. I lost my drive and focus. I'm slowly trying to find it again.

    Hi, I'm Debbie and yes I want to lose 70 lbs too. I am new to myfitnesspal and I will be starting my weight loss journey tomorrow. I was considering the lap band but the procedure was denied by my insurance company. So, I am turning to m fitnesspal to help me reach my goal. I am 5'6 and weigh 215 pounds. Add me if you like.

    My goal is to lose 70-80 pounds this year. Which means losing a little under 2 pound each week.

    I have 74.8lbs left to lose so I absolutely hope it's possible! LOL
    I just did the math last night and if I can average 2lbs a week, I hit that goal in October.
    Keep up the good work and you can do anything!!

    I lost 62 pounds in about 6 months so it is definitely attainable. I did it through low carbing and lots of walking and running. I still have about 70-80 pounds left and trying to get as much of this off by the summertime as I can. I have stalled through the holidays so I am trying to motivate myself again...
