Hey all -

23 and I'm not a stranger to the weight loss train. I've failed it before but now I've got a wedding to plan for!
I'm looking to lose over 100lbs and am hoping to find some friends who are working toward a similar weight
loss goal! Good luck!

    Add me too if you'd like! I am working on a high goal too! Well, right now mini-goals, seems less daunting if I tackle what I want to lose in 25lb increments :)

    Sent you a friend request! I started with 102 pounds to lose and I'm down to 90 pounds left to lose. I know how difficult it can be but it will totally be worth it in the end!

    Good luck with your loss. I have a total of 184 lbs to lose. I'm almost at 80 down, so I know the drill. I wish I'd started at your age. I'd be much better off.

    I'd suggest you do two things: 1) Be consistent. Log EVERYTHING. 2) Be patient. You didn't put the weight on overnight. It ain't coming off overnight either.

    I'm overwhelmed by how many people have added me with similar goals. If there is anyone who has lost over 100+ using MFP also please feel free to add me as I could use all the tips, tricks, motivation and help I can get and I will try to provide the same for others that are in the same boat I am. :)
