Im not trying to discriminate against people who are trying to lose 5-65lbs im just looking for friends that are in a similar situation to me. Its hard to look at people right now who desparetly want to lose 30lbs when i have so much more to lose.

    I need to lose about 200 lbs to get at my goal weight. Yesterday I attending my first of six doctor appointments for surgery. After talking to the surgeon we came up with a plan from start to finish and then some. I have been thinking about having surgery for a while now maybe two years and finally decided it was time to have a chat and it turned out to be one of the best things I have done for myself thus far. Now I am not saying surgery is right for every person but for myself after trying everything else this is going to be a great new beginning. 90% of this journey is mental and changing my whole life not just for a period of time but for good so surrounding myself with motivated great people is going to help not just myself but them as well. I don't have a facebook but you are more then welcome to email me all of you at chungleigh03@gmail.com if you put "Motivation Friend" in the subject line i'll know what it is for and we can all help each other. I hope to hear from you all good luck with your ventures and God bless.

    Feel free to add me as well. I have 78 lbs to get to my goal. I had lost 52 lbs before and kept it off for 4 years before a whole bunch of life changes saw me add 50 lbs back on in the last year. I'm getting back onto the lifestyle wagon and definitely looking for others who are in a similar situation as me!

    I also have 70lbs, ok 71lbs, to lose to get to my goal weight. I had shied away from MFP for a year but I'm back on because I WANT to be healthy and I WANT to feel good about my appearance. I just started a bootcamp class to jump start the fitness piece.

    Ladies and Gents, WE CAN DO THIS!

    Yep - I've got a LOT to lose! Doing it the healthy way, one day at a time. My goal weight is around 165 and I'm about 265 right now. I've lost about 18 lbs already though!

    There's a whole different mindset when you've decided to lose a lot of weight. It seems impossible, sometimes hopeless, and the results barely show for a long time. But keep your chin up! Good luck! - M

    Hi there, in total I want to lose about 100 but couldn't bring myself to put the full goal on MFP!!!...I've done 24 so far since middle of July this year and I am obsessive now!!! Had nearly a whole lifetime of losing , putting on more, losing again, putting more on again so now it is not a diet, it is a healthy lifestyle I am going for now.
    I'm looking to reach out to some more friends for some mutual confidence boosting so feel free to add me too!

    I need to lose over 100 lbs. Just started MFP in August and it's going okay so far. But I could definitely use the support of people in similar situations.

    I have 100 pounds to loose so understand how hard it is to stay motivated when much thinner people moan about the work they have to do. As a large tattooed lady i feel like a joke half the time but im slogging away i have already lost 90lbs before starting myfitness pal but the last 100 seem to be even tougher to shift.together we will get there though
