edited December 2024 in Introduce Yourself
So I'm Nicole, my goal is to lose 115 lbs preferably before my 25th birthday next year so I have at least a year. It would be really nice to have a buddy here that's active and replies to comments and posts not necessarily all the time of course just every now and then or else I'm pretty much in this on my own which in the past has not worked out well for me. Anyways thank you for taking the time to read this.

Welcome!

    I need to lose right at 100 pounds to be in my normal weight range. I'm not sure it's possible as I've never been there since umm...middle school maybe but I'm trying!

    Realistically my goal weight is to be at 150, but I'm going for 135-140. But either way that's 100 pounds to lose and I've currently got about 80 more pounds to go. I am going for 10 pounds a month and so far I have been able to complete that! Anyone can feel free to add me, it's nice to have more support and I love to give support since I'm so active on here. :)
  • My goal is 80 lbs but wouldn't hurt me to lose 100! :) I started myfitnesspal back in aug.of last year but didn't get very serious about it and well 9 months later I weigh 20 more lbs than I did when I started!! So I'm dead serious this time! Could use a little support as well. I would love to be your support friend!!

    Hello, my name is Julie and I have about 125 lbs. to lose also. This year at NYE I made it my goal to make a positive change in my life to resolve my being over weight. I joined a gym with my friend, and we made a pact to go at least 5-6 days a week, and I'm proud to say we hit that goal. Now that exercise is part of my routine,I am targeting my calorie intake, and have targeted a goal of 1 lb a week. this week I felt like this is really a slow goal. But when I rethink how I got where I am today, it didn't happen quickly either. It took a slow and steady gain over years, and here I am. So..... I will continue on my goal of one pound a week. I think that slow and steady will win the race in the long run, and it will be something I can maintain. I don't want to have to do this all over again and again, and again. If I can help anyone in anyway, to stay positive let me know, I try to sign on daily. Keeping track of calories is new for me, and having a value put on all that goes in my mouth makes me think before I eat. So hang in there with me and all the peeps on MFP, and we will win this race together. One other note, is all diets no matte what you research, contain one common factor......... did you guess?
    Yup it's exercise, so get busy

    I'm just starting my umpteenth time to lose weight and this time I'm hoping to maintain a weight loss. Started yesterday and I have 105 pounds to go! I can offer and use as much encouragement/advice as possible.
