    YOU CAN DO IT! It seems like such a huge amount when you are starting out, but you can do it! I weighed 230 on Christmas of last year and I'm currently at 149, working to 135. You should cut it down into smaller sections so you aren't so overwhelmed. Good luck!!! Just take it day by day.

    I started on Jan 3 of this year to try & lose 100 lbs. I'm 51 years old , 5'10" and my starting weight was 268 lbs. I've lost 8 lbs so far. I think Kaitee24 is right about cutting it down to smaller sections. I decided I'd set a 10 lb goal each time and keep working from there so it didn't seem so overwhelming.

    I ultimately want to lose 80 lbs as well, but my first goal is to lose 40lbs by my 40th birthday. I turn 39 this Monday so I have to achieve it. Add me as well:)

    I am. I am 5'4" and almost 260 lbs. That hurts soooo much to just to say it. Hopefully with time and motivation I will lose this weight slowly. No fad diets, just exercise and eating right. No Excuses.

    I'm right there with you... 31, 5'5, 232... I'm hoping to lose btwn 80-90 lbs overall (started arnd 235), but I am measuring by smaller goals so it's not so intimidating. My current goal is lose 10 lbs by Valentine's Day. I'm trying to pick "mile markers" each month, for example Feb has Valentine's day, March is my daughter's bday, April Spring Break, etc... I'm hoping that works for me and keeps me from getting too overwhelmed... Feel free to add me!

    Count me in. I'm 5'10" and was at 272.8 just after New Years and have lost almost 7 and joined a gym this week.

    I've gained so much in the last two years from depression / emotional eating. Very long story. Looking forward to losing with all of you.

    Hi, I also would like to be added to this group. I am 53, 5'2'' and weigh 231. I also think we should break it down. My big goal is 30 lbs. by May 30th. But I am working in 10 lbs. increments. I have been wanting to purchase a Kindle Fire, so I have put that as my 10lb lost gift to myself. I have been using MFP for quite awhile but I just used the phone app. so I did not realize what a community support it has.

    I am on the journey with you! The day I gave birth to my daughter (who is now 3) I weighed 376 lbs. I now weigh 258lbs (at 5'10"). I have been 280 as long as I can remember! I think I finally got this weigh loss thing down.. only took my entire 25 yr life!
