    I've been on MFP a year and have lost 70 pounds. I have 40 to go.

    I run a group called "A Goal A Month" and it is all about setting your own small, ACHIEVABLE monthly goals and tracking them on the spreadsheet. All are welcome!

    Check it out and feel free to join (and friend me!). It's the perfect time to join for February!!

    Hi I also need to lose over 10 kilos not sure what that is in pounds. I could use all the help I can get. I also did it several yrs ago andkept it off until 2 yrs ago when we moved back to a previous residence that I hated. Still stuck here but sick of extra weight. Hope this helps.

    Thanks for all the messages It is great to know that there are lots of people with a good amount to loose and that are on their journey. This will give me some faith and motivation.
    I keep thinking small steps
    1lb per week is 4 stone in a year and 2lb per week is 8 stone
    I day at a time
    Got to keep this focus
    :smile:
  • Wow, I never thought of it like that, thats really motivated me as for the last couple of weeeks I only lost 1 or 1.5 lbs and was feeling very demotivated but now that you've pointed out that I could lose 4 stone in a year I feel much better!

    thank you, you'ver made my day! :happy:
  • Motivation is key! People pushing you in the right direction can make a huge difference towards your goals! :smile:

    We're in the same boat! And we can always use support!
  • Hi there. I also just recently started and have 91 more pounds to go! Having a good support team is very helpful!
  • I've started recently, into my 4th week now. It's taking its time but every little helps. I love this site, it really gives you the motivation and direction to keep trucking along with the weight loss. Keep up the good work guys.

    I have started too, but have a long long way to go! Why don't you keep this as thread for us to interact?
    Happy to befriend anyone here too....I find that having people at different stages helps us all...
    those ahead of us have experience and persistence, those behind get inspiration and refreshed motivation from all.

    Glad to meet everyone!

    make that big journey not so cumbersome by setting little goals. my first goal when i was 400 pounds was to fit into a denium skirt i ordered years before but never wore. withen a month i was in it. then get into some old jeans. set 10-15 pound goals with deadlines. and reward yourself with cool stuff NOT FOOD! i got a tatoo of a pheonix (had risen from the ashes of a 13 year abusive marriage). I swear it is good luck. my life has been improving since. not just in the health depeartment. good luck YOU CAN DO IT.
