Looking to lose 89 pounds before I turn 25

Hi everyone,
I turn 24 this Friday. I was at the doctor this past Monday for my yearly check-up and was told I HAVE to lose weight. Thankfully, all my blood work was great other than iron levels, so it's time for me to get into gear. I have used MFP in the past but tended to stop after a few weeks. This time I am prepared to stick it out!

If anyone else is looking for encouragement or support, is on a journey to lose more than 50 pounds, or is a young female like me, I would to be friends on here!

    Hi there, I would like to lose about 60 lbs. I think you have a great goal and you should listen to your doctor. Don't starve yourself and look to this webpage everyday for encouragement. I wanted to lose 50 lbs for quite some time now, but I kept on gaining weight. But I'm using this tool now and I feel more in control. I don't care that I have failed with MFP before because now I am motivated to lose the weight for myself and I am doing this alone with the help of this wonderful online community. Good luck!
