    Hi Brandy welcome! Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it. I keep myself motivated by setting new goals when I’ve reached one. I use to weigh 350lbs now I am at 173lbs still pushing hard so I can totally relate. So keep on pushing yourself trust me if I did it you can do it. If you need an extra buddy feel free to add me :)

    Add me if you would like! I was in the same boat a couple of years ago and Zumba was my saving grace! I lost from 310-188, but now I'm back up too around 210! I workout at least four days a week and try to eat right most of the time :). I know you can do this! Just set some mini-goals and get on it :)!

    Hey Brandy - we are all here for the same reason - and we all need as much support as we can get. I just began my journey as well...although like most of us, this is not my first rodeo. Friend me if you're interested. I have about 55-60 lbs. to lose so I know I'll need as much encouragement as I can get as well. Good luck and welcome to MFP - so far I'm loving it. I tried many programs weight watchers being the most recent....I feel that counting calories is the most efficient and easiest means to our goals!!!!

    Success stories on here are the main things that keep me motivated and focused on continuing towards my goal. MFP is exactly what I needed to change my life. I could not be more grateful for this web site and all the wonderful people that really are helping each other become healthier.

    Hi I am in need of losing about 100 lbs. I have found that my biggest obstacle is motivation. I will do good for a week then I am done. I would love to have someone to help me along the way who is in the same need as myself.

    Hi everyone! I had 110 to lose. Now, I have lost 46. I did by making small changes slowly. I went from total couch potato to excercising three times a week and wondering where to fit in just a bit more. U am addicted to the sense of empowerment I am getting with each small but doable change.Log in every day and read the forums here, scan the Sucess Stories section of the forum.

    YOU CAN DO THIS! If I can, anyone can.

    Well it looks like your off to a good start., Stick with the program and you will do well. I have found if walk on my lunch time it then i'm not just sitting there watching everybody else eat and then getting more hungry than i really am plus i'm burning calories as I go. I have only about 25 lbs to loose but your more than welcome to add me as friend. I will be continuing on using this even after i drop the weight.
