    I'm new as well! I have a goal of about 80 lbs, but to be at my ultimate goal, I'd need to lose 105 lbs. I would love some friends and support as well! :)

    I've been doing 'myfitnesspal' since the second week of January. Have lost 35 lbs so far. All I can say is it takes 3500 calories to equal a pound of fat. That means in order to lose a pound a week you gotta burn 500 calories in exercise per day.. (or 1000 calories per day will shed 2 pounds per week). YOU'VE GOT TO EAT LESS AND MOVE MORE. I've played with the numbers using 'myfitnesspal' - the calorie counting on meals and the exercise log and it does 'add up'. A friend of mine recently stopped losing weight. When we talked out what had changed, she realized that she wasn't burning the calories like before and that she hadn't been as strict on her calorie counting. Bottom line (no pun intended.... well maybe a little) .. is 3500 calories is what you've got to get rid of in order to get rid of a pound.. whether by food moderation or exercise (or best - a combination). We're all here to get healthy again. Let's support eachother! Best to ALL !!!

    Hello,

    I have 80lbs to lose and I would love to be friends with you. I was successful on MFP a few years ago and then gained it all back. Please feel free to add me if you want someone who will help support you at all times.

    Welcome to MFP, I haven't been on here long about 6 mos or so. I only have about 60 lbs to loose but support is support right? =)
    You are right the weight will start coming off easy at first but once your body starts getting use to the workouts and the healthy eating you'll have a plateau. But don't give up there are tons of people here that can give you amazing advice when that time comes!!!
    Good Luck and feel free to add me! =)

    Im losing kilos, not pounds :) but otherwise am in the same boat.

    Happy for anyone on this thread to add me. I'm in Australia and do my workouts in the evening so I tend to be online around 8am - midday GMT.

    cheers,
    Veronica

    Hi

    I joined years ago but just recently started becoming active in using this. I've lost 8lbs in 3 weeks thus far and about 52 lbs to go until I reach my first goal. I'm here for you and I'm looking for a support group as well.

    Feel Free to add me as well!!!!

    Hi there,

    I am on a journey to lose about 90 pounds total. I started a few times before, and let life's little obstacles (and failure to prep food) get in the way of my efforts. I do not have a support system so I am looking to receive support as well as provide it to those that need it. Anyone is free to add me.

    Hi, I'm totally new to mfp and had the shock of my life when I actually weighed myself and realised I had over 100 lbs to lose. Would love to join you and offer what support I can on your way to target weight. We CAN do it - one day at a time. I have sent you a friend request.
