Starting Again, for real this time. 100+ lbs to lose.

Hello....I have similar weight loss goals as you. I lost approx 50 pounds last year on MFP and felt great. My knee joints were improved and some of my tummy problems when I ate had gone away. I went off MFP and slowly my old habits started creeping back in and the weight along with it. Feel free to add me and we can motivate each other. I've re-committed to this again and have been logging my food and exercise daily. I need to get back on track.

Take Care,
Amy

Feel free to add to me for support. I'll also hold you accountable for what you eat and do, so don't say I didn't warn you. (I also appreciate the same!) If we're going to get upset when someone points out our bad habits, it means that we're not ready to change them yet.

My advice to you is to start small. Don't diet, eat healthy. By start small, I mean for the first month, just walk 30 minutes each day and make sure you eat fruits & veggies with every meal. That's it. Just start there. You'll be amazed by how far you can get when you start building good habits!

PS: I weigh 245, used to weigh 265, and would ULTIMATELY like to weight 170-130. We'll see when I get there. The main goal for me is to be healthy and happy, and to learn how to pole dance!

Hello!! This is my 2nd time on myfitness pal, my first time was successful and I really transformed my diet and body however just lately all my bad eating habits have started creeping back and I'm starting to slide,I don't want to go back to my old weight! I hope to find some great supportive friends on here that will share tips and their progress and we can push each other with encouragement! Add me guys and goodluck x

Hello, I actually did weight watchers 2 years ago and lost 30lbs unfortunately i stopped and thought i could keep it up on my own, but alas my old habits came back and i gained everything back. I am starting over on my fitness pal this year and so far i've been struggling again trying to kick those habits. I think its great to have others supporting you, a couple of people in my family and coworkers have joined so we use each other for support and to keep on track. I'm trying to lose 60lb to be at a healthy weight and bmi.

Good Luck!

Hi Everyone, My name is Diann and I am 41. I joined mfp quite awhile ago and never really got motivated in it and only logged in once in awhile. I am back and ready to go. I want to be held accountable for my actions and of what I eat. My husband and I have joined a gym together and I have been going everyday and walking and doing some muscle strengthening. I would love to have support from people that are in the same boat as me. My husband is a big support but he is in generally good shape with only about 10 to 20 lbs. to lose. Where I on the other hand have at least 80 (that is my first goal). I am not sure how to add friends or anything so if you are interested in supporting each other please feel free to add me.

Hi. I am sending you a friend request. I started last July with a goal to lose about 130, I am not quite half way there yet but I keep chugging along. I also log daily, the good, the great and the oh so very ugly sometimes.

My name is Linda. I have 73+ to go and want to be fit at 40. I have until January and am DETERMINED.

Hi, friend request sent

Anyone can feel free to add me as well. This is my second time here, this time it is working out better. I am actually dedicated this time. I've lost 3kg so far (6.6lbs) but still have another 48kg to go (105lbs). I log on every day and love sharing in everyone's journey. We all need support to reach our end goals!

I have 85 pounds to lose. Recently re-committed to tracking daily. I would like the support of others who have similar amount of weight to lose and in return I'm happy to help provide you support and motivation.

Hey, I'm with you. I'm starting over. I've been screwing up for almost a year. I have no idea how much weight I've gained back. Kind of scared to even step on the scale but I will in the next few days. I'd like the support and to also give support. GW:130-140 Last weight I remember was in the 170's. That was a while ago so I know it's pretty up since then.

It takes guts to admit some defeat and get back on the horse. Feel free to add me as I know what it is like to lose 100+ lbs :-)

Hello, I am in pretty much the same situation. A few years ago I lost 65 lbs on MFP, and felt great. Unfortunately I didn't stick with it and this year I have gained back 50. So now I have been back for a week, and am so happy to be back on track. I have about 130, or more to lose. Good luck everybody! I know this site worked for me last time, and I am determined to do it again, only better!

Hey everyone! That's great your trying again! Never give up. Every fail we make is always to learn to be stronger for the next time we try! If you or anyone needs any advice questions let me know! I love helping others achieve goals. It would be nice to meet more people to help me stay motivated and on track. I'm 5ft, was becoming overweight in the 140s. Now I am back in the 120s more toned then I have ever been. I love to lift, run, and addicted to turbo fire. I have learned a lot with my journey to the healthiest I can be. I'm here if anyone needs any help.

hey, welcome back to MFP. I am back on here again too. I tried a couple years ago but it didnt stick. I went back on weight watchers, but it's to pricey for me at the moment. I have lost 33 lbs, and still have about 50 to go. I wish you the best of luck and would love to help each other out with encouragement. hope to talk to you soon.
