100 lbs to lose by 2015.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for other people who are on the same path as I am - losing 100 lbs by next year.
My "diet" will consist of eating mostly vegetables (I'm definitely going to have to learn some new recipes!), fruits, whole or sprouted grains (I'm NOT cutting out wheat or gluten), healthy fats, and lean proteins. Honestly, although counting calories is necessary to a degree, it is not going to be my main focus - the ~kind~ of food I eat is the main priority for me.
This is going to be really difficult, but it has to be done; I'm so sick of being unhealthy, and I need to commit to this change.

I need to lose quite a bit too. It sucks, but ... what can you do? We're the ones who put the weight on, so unfortunately, we're the ones who have to lose it. lol
Good luck!0 -
I am doing the same. It will take time but it would take the same time to not loose the weight as well. Might as well do it!0

Yep, very true - it's going to be tough breaking the bad habits, but it can/will be done.0

Okay, I feel as if I am making progress. One of my secondary goals was to get control of my blood glucose levels and I am amazed that my insulin requirement has dropped dramatically with the help of the book Goodbye Diabetes, Fork over Knife, Engine Company 2, My Beef with Meat, and the McDougall Programs. I am down 22 and the hundred pounds by the end of this year looks possible.0

similar path here, got a bit more than 100 to lose but hopefully make a dent in the numbers by 2015!0

I'm aiming for 100 lbs, not exactly by 2015 but just whenever it happens (although a year would be really nice!)0

I lost 100 in just over a year. It can be done.0

Challenge accepted! Ok maybe not 100, but I am right there with you be eating better and seeing what happens. My real goal is to lost 50 lbs by September, which I believe to be more than reasonable. All in all I would like to lose 80-100, but after I start school in Sept. things will slow down. Please add me as a friend so we can check up on how we are doing with our life changes!0

I have the same goal! Trying to lose at least 100lbs by 2015! I started in December 2013 and have lost 17 so far! I'm doing the same, trying to change the types of food I eat and smaller portions to help with calorie control.0
