I have been on MFP consistently since January... I have lost 50 pounds without a problem. I have about 27 pounds left to reach my goal and I have somehow lost my motivation... I have not gained any weight back, but am not losing anymore, not even sure if I'm trying... If you can motivate me, please friend me...I do want to lose the weight...I need SUPPORT!

    Wow! You've lost 50lbs since January! I know you are looking for motivation, and sorry, I am lacking in that area, but you sure have motivated me!! I'd love to hear people's response to this, as I have always struggled with motivation! I'll go good for a while, then just seem to give up for a while, restart, give up for a while..repeat ad nauseam. This time I want to be FOR REAL and actually make it to my goal weight, but I'm afraid that this time will be no different than all the others.

    Good luck, you have done amazing so far and you should be so proud of yourself! You are almost there!!

    I've lost 72 lbs, and that last 12 or so that I want gone is taking forever. But I just keep telling myself that is what I've been doing isn't working, maybe I need to try something else. You've done 2/3 of the work.

    Best advice I can give is remember why you wanted to lose the weight in the first place. For me it was fighting genetics and atrophy (in my life, not in my muscles). The last 12 are all for me, and no one else, as that's where I want my weight to be. That and the fact that I can look at the BMI scale and finally be "normal" is awesome.
