    Hi everyone! I just joined today. I'm looking to lose 50 pounds. I quit smoking in September and have somehow packed on 20 pounds since then. I'm very discouraged. Onward and upward they say; we can do this!!

    I've been doing this a while and started out pretty good but now I just don't know. I'm trying but getting no where. I have plenty friends but unconcerned comments are just that. I do have a few friends that I feel are great. A lot of people just want someone to cheer them on and have this big long list of comments, personally if I only had one or two friends that offer help and suggestions on how to do better, that would be enough for me. I've also found people just want someone to compete with; you know, I did better than you kind of people. That is not what I need. Anyway life goes on and Hopefully I will get back in the groove. Just venting. Hope everything work out for everyone else!:smile:

    Hello, lovely! Welcome to MFP!

    I have around 75 pounds to lose in total. I break mine down into nerdy-licious mini goals in order to break up the large number that stares at me in the face. Every 5% of my body weight lost, I reward myself with something NOT food related. You can check out my profile if you'd like to see how I've got it goin' on. Also, I break down my ticker that way. Right now, I'm on my way to my first 'mini goal' ~ my ticker says I'm 2 pounds away. Once I hit that goal, I'll redo my ticker & add on another 11 or so pounds to lose.

    Good luck on your journey, darling! I would love to support you (and anyone, for that matter!) along the way ~ anyone, feel free to add me! I also log every day, exercise (weight lifting) 4-5 days a week, and am supportive & active on my news feed.

    Let's do this, beautifuls!

    Good Luck to you, I have found this app to be so helpful, from tracking my food intake to my exercise, I have lost a total of 57 lbs so far, using this app and a healthy diet and exercise. I still have 84 lbs to go. Not sure if you like to dance, but Zumba is a wonderful fun way to get exercise in. I usually burn around 1,000 calories at one time. :smile:
