    My original goal was to lose 180 lbs. I have 122 to go. This is really important to me so I only want to surround myself with people who are taking it as seriously as I am. I delete friends that frequently don't log in. I log in daily. I think this process really only works if you are honest about your calorie tracking. I also find it incredibly important to stay positive. Otherwise the sheer size of my goal would overwhelm me. I can't afford to take on pity party friends that whine they wanna quit everytime it gets hard. I can't let anyone's negativity poison me.

    About me:
    My name is Laura. I'm 35. New to running, just finished my 1st 5k a month ago.
    SW 330
    CW 272
    UGW 150
    Current goal- lose 2 more lbs by New Years
    Next goal- reach 255 by Valentines!

    Add me if you like. I am 58 and starting weight was 272. I have lost 16 lbs so far and I am doing it 6 lbs at a time. That is my goal. I would love to get to 172 because of my age and body type. Congratulations to you for starting!
