I decided that 2013 is going to be about choosing to make a difference to my health - mental and physical. I would love to have friends who are needing to lose a similar amount so we can motivate each other for the long haul. Feel free to add me if you are a splendidly chunky person, who doesn't mind me following you up if I haven't seen you around for a couple of days. (Nicely, of course). I would hope the same from you too. :)

    Hey guys we are in the same boat. We have recently started a new group.... 2013 pound a week. Our target is to lose one pound every week. I think it is quite motivating, you may like to join the group:)
  • Me too!

    The 2013 pound a week group looks interesting, I will have to go and try to find it!

    Feel free to add me. I've dropped 76, but still have 74-94 to go depending on how I feel when I get to my first goal. Good luck to you!
  • I am breaking down my targets as I have a way to go! So hard to get out of bad habits that I have fell into!
  • Good luck Kim, I am more than 100 lbs overweight but I am so afraid to say I am going to loose even 50 lbs knowing that I may fail. I am just taking it one day at a time. Best of luck!!!!

    You can add me if you want. I have been on a weight loss journey since November of last year with mixed results. I am down from my highest weight of 258.5#, but up from my lowest point. I have found that using this site is invaluable because it makes you accountable. I am losing weight to be the best I can for my wife. She is also on a weight loss journey, and she has lost 55#! Stay focused and it will happen!

    I feel you; I've got 100 pounds to lose to get where I want (280 to 180), and I have a lot of emotional and physical baggage I want to sort out this year.
  • Hey everyone, I"m also in on this goal. My initial goal is 64 down for my wedding, but the long term is around 125 lbs down from where I started. I rejoined last week and am down 4 pounds so far. Any ideas or thoughts can greatly help me.

  • I'm aiming to lose about 120 to get to a decent weight and stay there; joined a few weeks ago but starting seriously from next week when I'm back at uni and away from the temptation of having food to spare :D This site definitely seems to be helpful; I've seen people who have lost loads using the tools and the social side of the site. I am determined to lose this weight.
