    Hello, I am new to this this week also and I have 150 lb to lose. To me it seems like an almost impossible task but if we work together on this and give each other support I am sure we can do it. My weight is drastically affecting my health and I have 2 beautiful children I want to live for. Feel free to add me as a friend. I am logging on daily at the moment and I want to continue as I think MPF will really help me if I stay committed. :)

    Hello! :) It does seem insurmountable when you think, "I have 150 lbs to lose!" D:

    So stop thinking about it like that. Just... start. Once you start, just keep going. Set small goals - 10, 15 lbs. Before you know it, everything becomes routine and that 150 lbs will come off without you even realising it.

    Good luck!

    Thank you. I was driving myself crazy with unrealistic goals in time set and the pressure was getting to me.

    I have changed my goals to milestones instead of a crazy race against time.

    I have over 100lbs to lose for the first leg of this journey so please fell free to add me also :-)

    I would love to have more friends for inspiration and motivation. Don't let my ticker on my home page fool you!!! I have 143 lbs to lose but that really overwhelms me!! I am working hard to get this junk off me so that I can be a better wife and mother. At this weight I have barely been able to get out of the house with my kids and they are only 5 so they really need to be outside as much as possible. I am 7 lbs down as of today and have only really been trying to lose weight since May 31. I think I am doing pretty good. I have finally learned (already knew it but just didn't comprehend) that calories out really need to be more then calories in so that is my daily focus. What can I get up and do to burn off more calories. I log all of my food intake in the morning and if something changes then I do my best to change it immediately so I always know what I need to burn. So far it is working for me. So anyway, If you would like to add me then please feel free!!!

    Hi all, My goal is to lose 100+ lbs and I have lost 49 lbs. so far (hopefully 50 this week :) I am 45 and started my new healthier lifestyle journey on 1/11/13. Like others, I have done this by reducing the amount of food I eat, increasing the quality (lots of fruits/vegetables/lean protein) and exercising more (at least 1/2 hour a day). Anyone is free to add me.

    I lost 50lbs and have 60-75 more to go.It's been about 6 months since I started- I wish I was seeing results faster but I learned to stop beating myself up over the bad days and I am working to make this an everyday thing rather than a diet so balance is key. I still love chocolate and I have to find a way to incorporate it in my life the HEALTHY way :-)

    Good luck on your journey and feel free to add me :-)
