22 & Needs to lose 100+ lbs ! Support Anyone?

Hey everyone ! My name is Meaghan and I need to lose 100+ lbs but it's going to be hard since I have no support at home or with friends. Everyone sees what i'm trying to do, but they either fall off track in the process or either they don't have faith that I can lose this weight.

Life was a bit crazy there for a minute due do to me just graduating from college but since it has calmed down some, i'm ready to take this weight by the horns and tell it to bow down cause im in charge! I'm currently job hunting & so far that is the only stressor that I can say I have.

But i'm tired of the excuses and im ready to get my life back !

So Support anyone?

    Hey, I'll send you a friend request. I'm 25 and have about 120 more pounds to lose so I think we could be great supports to each other :)

    Well I don't have 100 lbs to lose, but I am 22! My only suggestion is go slow... Studies show that the slower weight is lost, the more likely you are to keep it off. Just think, if you lose one pound a week, you will reach your goal in 2 years. That seems like a long time, but that's ok, because think about the rest of your life! You'll be a hot mama before you're 25! That being said, I know how it is to be young and watching your weight around your peers that can eat whatever they want and not have to watch what they eat. It's frustrating. But when they are turning thirty and their metabolism a slow down and they start packing on the pounds, you will have your weight under control and be prepared with the tools necessary for keeping a healthy weight.

    I have lost almost 100 (96) before, just a few years ago and gained it all back plus more. I need to lose about 130- just started getting serious again 3 weeks ago. Would be happy to support each other along the way!

  • well we are already freinds and I need to lose like at lease 50 soooooo with that being said WE CAN DO THIS, i KNEW I hadnt seen you on here in a while, i honeslty thought you were taking a break becuase you had just graduated, I miss your good morning LUVS. lol.
    I dont have any support at home either, and I really have a will power issue, I work with a skinny girl ( who I love to death) that can eat what she wants so I have it hard, i get home late so that makes it even harder to eat healthy. then I am always running which makes eating out an easy solution???? so any advice from you would help to, we are in this together!!! WE ARE ALL A FAMILY!!!:bigsmile:
