Looking for friends wanting to lose 60+ pounds~

in Introduce Yourself
Think it would be nice to make some friends trying to lose around the same amount as I am. Nothing against people who want to lose 20-30 or anything, but I'll feel a little discouraged if all my friends are hitting their goal weights and I've still got a ways to go.

I'm aiming for 140 which means I got about 76 left to go. I'm only weighing myself once every 2 weeks to see actual results that won't discourage me, so I could be even less now(my next weigh-in is on Saturday).

Add me as a friend? (:

    I'm just starting up, finally got my treadmill yesterday, so I'm ready to go. My goal is around 145-150 which means I have about 75-80 lbs to lose. I think we we're within 8 lbs of the same starting weight.. lol
    I'll go ahead and send you an add request

    I am brand new today here :smile:

    I have 100lbs to lose. I've started well, I have a personal trainer twice a week and I have started my first week of C25K. I also have an underactive thyroid though and have done for years which makes weightloss slooow.

    It would be great to have other people looking to lose a lot of weight and great so how well some of you have done already!

    I have no idea how to add though yet!

    My first goal is to reach 180 pounds so that is 55 to go. Once I reach that. Will set a new goal. I don't want to discourage myself like I have in the past. I am eating my regular food only watching portions more. I exercise 4-5 days a week. I run/walk, lift weights and Spin. I am always up for more support here and I am always ready to support more people. Add me if you want to!!!

    Count me in! I still have about 75 to go and then I'll re-evaluate after that.

    CarolinaMoon, I also have 100 pounds to lose. But I am 58 years old and have painful arthritis in my back and hips which keeps me from exercising. My doctor tells me I will be able to exercise without pain when I lose quite a bit of weight. Would you like to be my friend on my weight loss journey? I started August 26th and have lost about 11 pounds. -Vicki (Renya213)

    Adding you! I am currently at 195; I started at 212 back in July and got slowed down for a while but I am back at it! My goal is 130 (I am 5'4" and 24 years old)

    What workouts are you doing? I have been heavy weight lifting since July and had a lot of success and started my first round of p90X yesterday with some friends :)

    Everyone feel free to add me! I am eager to give support to other people who are serious about their goals! :)

    So far all I've been doing is running on my treadmill and doing some dancing. Not too much yet. Gunna get into aerobic cardio workouts eventually, as well.

    Hi Talim--
    I need a partner with goals! A co-worker of mine told me about this site and I was on it! I am a curvy woman, and I look good in my clothes, but when I take them off.. . .that's another story. My youngest daughter turned 5 years old a week ago, and I have YET to lose the "toddler" weight. So, I'm focused, I'm goal-oriented, and I am ready!!!

    I went to the doctor a week ago, and was told I weigh 250 pds at 5'11". My goal is to get to 200 pounds, so my goals are near yours, love!!!

    Let's get it!!!!! I'm with you ALL the way!!!!!
