Would like more friends for encouragement. I need it. I have been my own motivation, but some days are just really hard. I am trying to loose between 50 and 75 pounds.

    What is your goal date? Set that and have concrete goals and deadlines.

    Change your reasons for wt loss. Focus on Lifestyle Change, take your TIME-Be Patient. Change your Diet/Change Your Life!
    Basically, when you are eating for a LIFETIME, it is Done...who needs motivation , You Just DO IT!

    I also need support! I need to lose at least 40 pounds. I notice when I east over 1,000 calories per day, I gain weight. this is why I am where I am today. I am 5' 3" and was up to 174. I started watching the calories and now weigh 170.2. 1200 calories sound like way to much.

    Thanks, however, my reasons for wt loss are exactly right for me. My diet also is not what needed to be changed, as I eat healthy and always have (I can thank my mother for that). It was my lack of exercise that took it's toll on me. I went from being an extremely active person, and maybe even a tad bit underweight, to having 2 kids and letting it all go from there. I just need/want others to help keep me motivated to get back into an active lifestyle. So far so good!
