    I'm trying to loose about 50-55lbs. I used to weigh over 300lbs and (back in 1997) had gastric bypass surgery. I lost about 130lbs and plataued. (Honestly was very content around 160 -my goal has never been to be skinny, but to be comfortable in my own skin, able to move around wtihout being out of breath, etc). Two kids later, I've gained about 20 back and would like to get down. I'd be very comfortable loosing 30lbs but 50 is my goal. It's a daunting thought, really. I HATE exercise and I LOVE food.

    I once lost about 50 pounds and reached my goal of an "under 180 pound" weight.

    Of course that was 179.9.

    I then commenced celebration related activities. :drinker:

    Of course that involved a lot of pizza and other fatty foods.

    All of a sudden it was a year later. Now its several years later.

    Now I have to lose 60 pounds.

    Best of luck to us all!

    Yes, I am trying to loose around 80 pounds. I started Weight Watchers and have lost 10 pounds since starting --- two years ago. Loosing weight is difficult for me, I am a stay-at-home mom with only one child left at home -- our 18 year old son -- he will be leaving for college this fall and I will be left totally alone during the day, less accountability for my exercise and diet. I am also a type 2 diabetic and wish to loose my weight to avoid being put on insulin.

    My goal is to loose 80 pounds. I've done it before I know I can do it again. I'm very excited about the MFP site and community. I don't have any friends yet. I just joined on Sunday. Would love to hear from others who have to lose 50 pounds or more and what tips they can share. :smile:

    Wow, go figure... NOBODY From January 25th until today was trying to lose over 50 pounds? Weird. Anyone else notice the drop in posts? I've lost 46 and need to lose about 85 more. It's a long road.

    I am trying to loose 75 pounds and get back to my pre pregancy body!! Ive started the 30 Day Shred with Jillian Michael, and so far its going good!

    Me too, on both counts (75lbs and Jillian Michael's). The post-pregnancy thing doesn't work for me anymore though, now that my son is 17! LOL.

    I was hit by a car and stopped walking or getting any exercise, basically. ANd I discovered what an excellent chef I am!

    ANyway, glad to join this group.
