    I have been struggling with my weight for my whole life, I want to lose about 70lbs, and I WILL accomplish my goals for 2013. I need motivation, and I think I am pretty good at motivating others as well

    I just started today. It didn't go so bad, but I know it is going to be challenging. I have already told myself that in three weeks I can treat myself. I have to be realistic but disciplined. This site really helps because it makes me think of what I am eating. I have to look into protein powders though, it seems to be the rave with workouts.

    I don't know if is a rave. I been taking it to help build muscle. keep in mind protein powders won't help you lose weight, It well make you gain weight. hopefully it'll be muscle gain then fat gain. So your weight well seem like it not moving at all, if you want to be a body builder. I'm about 309 and I want to be about 233(my lean body weight). So i'm trying to cut(as those pro body builders would say).

    I want to lose at least 55 lbs. A few years ago I had lost about 30 and gained about 15 back. I'm determined to get it back off and then some!

    I have over 50 lbs to lose. Should've kept with my exercising for the past few years but always quit. I do want to lose the weight, I just feel like I don't have much motivation.

    Recent job loss put me back on the wrong path. With the new year and new attitude, hopefully I will get rid of my 70 pounds that is weighing me down in more ways than one. Feel free to add me also. WE CAN DO THIS!

    I've been at this since September. I was not great the last 2 weeks and had my "first" day again today. What's really helped me is trying to not focus on the total number I need to lose and rather on small goals like hitting a new decade in my weight loss goals and getting to the half way point of each decade. (i.e. - 174 and 169 lbs) It makes me feel good to be in the next decade. Good luck! Feel free to add me if you'd like.

    I just started again and I need to lose 100 pounds. Please add me because I need motivation and encouragement. Logging the food really helps. even on days I think I ate a ton of food, I can see that I am close to my goals. Stick with it and please add me!
