Hey all-

I've been on MFP for 70 days now. I stagnated in May/June but am on the downward trend. I have a whopping 82 lbs to lose (I started with 109lbs to lose in March...*geesh* I cannot believe I just typed that).

I started losing motivation and to re-ignite myself I scoured through the success threads on here. Super amazing. That's when I saw people requesting buddies and I've added some. It's worked! I am so motivated now that I feel like a part of a larger community. If you are an active MFPer please add me! :] I support/you support. It's a win-win. :wink:

    You've lost 27 pounds! That's awesome.

    Go to YouTube and search for how big 5 pounds of fat is. 27 pounds is 3 or 4 newborn babies!!!

    Congrats!!!

    Stay motivated by reminding yourself why you're doing this. It's not just a number on a scale. What's the real win for getting fit for you?
