    yeah you can do this. It all happens in your mind that you have decided that what your gonna do, and you will figure out a way to make it happen. Good luck.

    I myself have lost my first 10lbs and have 110 to go

    My advice and something I wish I had done is to take progress pictures. It would have been nice to chronicle the journey.

    I did put a fat picture of me on the refrigerator as a deterrent.

    would love to add you to my friend list. I've been using this sight since May, but don't have many friends/supporters and I need all the support I can get. Would love to add you to my friends.

    Hi and welcome.

    There are tons of great people here, and tons of great info, and you will, no doubt, be overwhelmed with both. ~chuckles~

    Best tip I can give you, regardless of the way you decided to work towards your goal, don't let the small slips read as failure. Just shrug, remind yourself that you're human, not perfect, and pick back up as quickly as possible. Losing weight isn't a quick process (okay, some people manage it quicker than others), you just have to do it a little at a time.

    I know it wasn't directed at me, but I really needed to hear this bit of wisdom!! I "know" this, but having someone else say it somehow made it sink in more. Tomorrow is another day!!!

    My first weight loss goal is 100 pounds. Sometimes it can be depressing at how much I have to lose but I try to stay motivated. I would love to have friends who have the same weight loss goals as me.

    you can do this! Feel free to add me. I started with needing to loose at least 100 lbs. It was a head thing but I didn't want to put any more than 100. I am probably looking at about loosing 120 when all said and done. haha I know there's not a lot of difference in 100 and 120 but in my head when I started there was? When I started I didn't have faith in myself to even do that. But after loosing 58 and such awsome people on here I am beginning to believe in myself that I can do it.

    I am also in the same process of losing 100 lbs. If I can loose that by my 40th birthday next year... awesome for me, but I'm just taking things nice and slow. I sent a friend request and if anyone else out there needs motivation and support , feel free to add me. Good luck too all!
