Hi, this is my second week here and I'm looking for friends who have already achieved losing 50-100+ lbs. I'm 5'8" and looking to go from a SW of 250lbs to 150 over the next year and a half and I realized most all my friends on MFP have the same journey ahead as I do and while they're great, it would also be inspiring to have some friends who have reached that destination who are toning up and/or maintaining :)

    I've gone from 208 lbs to 153 and goal is 146. Ultimate goal is 135 but I'd like to get that from working out.

    I've got 2 pounds to go to hit my weight loss goal of 144 lbs lost. Once I get there, I'll decide if I want to slowly lose a little more. Feel free to add me.

    Good for you! I was 270 lbs when I started last March. I've lost 69 lbs. so far. I'd like to lose another 30-40. I know it seems like a long journey, but I just took it one day at a time and some days, one meal at a time. I've found that exercise is the key for me. I have to do it 5-6 days a week. That just seems like the way my metabolism works. I also found that I had to change up my exercise routine every few weeks in order to keep losing. There are many successful people here and that really helped me as well. :)

    Good luck on your journey! it's possible!!!
