Hello Mrs. Duke

I also have more than 50 lbs. to lose.

Try the plain fat free Greek yogurt and add some blueberries and vanilla flavoring and truvia. It is a great sweetener and 0 calories. It is not aspartame. It is from the stevia plant and it is the only one allowed in the book I'm reading. it's by Jackie Warner and its called This is why you are Fat and How to get Skinny forever. It's a great book and even my doctor wants me to bring it in to him so he can read it. It has really helped me. Good luck!!

I just started back eating healthy and working out a couple of days ago. I lost 36 pounds last year close to this time and I put 25 back on. I am going to do this again. I want to lose 57 pounds. I lose it quickly at first but then plateau. We will get there with a lot of determination. I want to get down to a size 10.

Thanks for the tip Deb - will definitely give that a go! I've seen the advert for Truvia but never tried it. Guess I could add bits of of other fruit, too? Will have a look for the book on amazon, sounds great!

I have 50-60 lbs to lose. My best friend is getting married next year and it's forcing me to stop procrastinating and look hard at myself in the mirror. Bridesmaids dresses are bad enough without carrying around a bunch of dead weight and looking like The Blob.

I could definitely use a friend and some funny jokes to help motivate me! I just joined MFP today.

I know exactly how you feel! Add me if you like and we can encourage each other. Bridesmaid dresses = torment, but we can do this!:happy:

Anyone can add me if you want. I try to be funny but it doesn't always work; however, I am always encouraging and supportive :flowerforyou:

I'm down a little over 30 but have over 60 to go.

fallcheryl · July 2013

Just joined and definitely need to lose over 50 - about 55 pounds would put me at a healthy weight.

I live in Washington State, so I'm able to get some exercise in while the weather is nice, but dreading the cold dark winter months up ahead. Would definitely like to connect with others in a similar situation for mutual support and friendship.

So glad to see all you enthusiastic people! Thanks for the replies and adds!

Almost 100lbs to loose here. I've battled with my weight all my life, I would love the encouragement.

you and me both - I was always the tubby one even at school. Enough is enough and I am determined this time, it's coming off and staying off. Lost a stone already and aiming for two more by Christmas as my first goal.
You can do it! Small, achievable targets to start with then it'll all add up. Good Luck!

nolypoly1 · July 2013

I would love to have some encouragement and extra motivation!!! I started off with MFP a month ago and as of yesterday I have lost 15lbs. My starting weight was 178... which is pretty big when your only 5ft!!!
