I'm 20 pounds into my journey to lose 200 pounds. I'm looking for some friends with similar goals that are dedicated to healthy weight loss. (You know... good exercise, not under-eating, all that good stuff.) If you still struggling to find your way, that is fine. I'm happy to help share my knowledge with you as well! It would just be great to talk with more like-minded people fighting the same battle.

    I'm in much the same boat as you, with well over 100 to lose. I'm 12 lbs lost so far and looking forward to what tomorrow brings. It's hard, but this site and the calorie calculator is keeping me honest and knowledgeable about what I'm putting in my mouth.

    I'm adding you now! And anyone else, feel free to add me as well! The more the merrier!

    I no longer have 100 pounds to lose, but know what it is like to do so. I have lost almost 111 pounds and have about 46 pounds left to get to my goal. If you are committed and willing to put in the work that it requires, you will succeed. Good luck to you.

    I sent requests to you guys. Looking forward to working together! And ldrosophila... it may be a huge goal, but the way I see it... I didn't get this way in a few months. It took a lifetime. It is only fair it takes me a while and some hard work to get healthy again.

    Hi Amanda, My goal is to lose 110 pounds. It sounds like a lot but I am willing to take it a day at a time. I would like to be your friend. Everyone needs a little encouragement and needs to know that they are not alone.

    Add me too -- at 5'4" and 230 lbs I have at least 100 to lose. Can't picture it yet though -- been a VERY long time since I've been there. Never in my adult life..

    For my current goal I am on track to lose 175. Then reevaluate and see if I can do/need to do a few more pounds. Anyone can add me.

    I started my weight loss in January, but have only recently joine MFP. I was using Livestrong, but find the MFP app easier to use. I'm very serious about exercising. Pretty serious about eating healthy, but I don't deprive myself. Exercising made me want to watch what I eat. Dieting never made me want to exercise. So, this time around I decided to start with exercise. It's really made a big difference for me.

    I like to cook and eat at home mostly. I always have recipes to share. I'd like to be friends with someone who's serious about this journey. My current work out pals aren't too serious about making the changes necessary, but it does help to have someone to exercise with.

    55 pounds down (23 since I started using this tool). I want to get to 250 or less, never been there. I was born at 251 I think. It's funny, my motorcycle seems to have more horsepower as I get lighter. At least 75 more to go..... Let's do this.

    My name is Steven Gonzales and I'm well over 112 lbs overweight and that is my goal to lose 112lbs I call this diet Diabetic-2000 calories and 270 Low Carb Diet and plus I walk for 30 minutes each morning 7days a week next Thursday I'll be adding another 5 minutes and so so on until I reach 60 minutes a day. This diet has no restrictions on eating, eat what you want and when as long as you don't go over 270 grams of Carbs and don't eat after 6pm .

    I'm very confident I will reach my goal with all the love and support from my friends and family.
    I will face this challenge like I face danger look at it straight in the eye and conquer it!
