Over 100lbs to loose.. need friends!

I started here 71 days ago and I have approx 100 pounds to lose - I've only lost 8 so far because I've hit some sort of plateau already. I've found my MFP friends have been so supportive and one of the few reasons I haven't given up!

Anyone is welcome to add me. I'm friendly, I'm active on MFP, and I'm a work at home mom to a busy toddler! If we don't give up we will get to our goals!

That's amazing to lost 50 lbs. You are my hero. I need to lose at least 50 more like 70 to be in healthy range. I've done it all-Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Lean Bodies.....this time I have to do it. I'm tired of being the fat girl in the family photos.

Hey I'm Heather. 35 yr old mother of 4. I am still looking to lose 100 lbs. Having the support of each other is important. It isn't going to be easy but it will sooo be worth it. Just like tonight. I picked up a take and bake pizza for the kids for dinner. I chose to have salmon, broccoli and mashed potato instead. The pizza looked and smelled really good but I didn't want the empty calories, carbs, fat and sodium. I am on meds for High blood pressure and High cholesterol. Lifestyle change, not a diet.

Hi. I'll be a friend. I'm looking to lose 100lbs also. For me this is not going to be a quick fix. I've been dieting for 35yrs and putting on about 3-7lbs a year for the last 20yrs or so.. I tried 'em all- Weight Watchers, Slimming World, Rosemary Connolly, general wacko, etc. I'm presently doing 5:2 Diet. It's working for me. I've felt the most in control of my attitude to food than I've ever been in my life. I'm 18 mths in and I know my weight loss doesn't look great but in that time I've been seriously ill and consequently I've lost and I've gained.
So- on this present stint I'm 3 weeks in and have lost 13 lbs.

Feel free to add me. I've lost 54 lbs so far...still about 150 or so more to go. I log daily, my diary is open, and try to be motivational!

Hi! I'm Kayla, 26 year old postgrad student that does shift work.
I've lost a bit already, but have around 93lbs to lose. Joining Slimming World next friday but will be logging on here. My Diaries open to friends, and I am honest! I also have a blog where I do more detailed rambling. I'd like to lose 28lbs by 26th August when I go on holiday, then as much as possible by Christmas!

Good luck to everyone, feel free to add me

I have over 100lbs to lose. I'm just getting started but I'm very motivated. Anyone can add me (:

Hi! I would be happy to be friends and support anyone who is on this very difficult path.

I started MFP about 2 months ago, but have really been gaining and losing the same 140 pounds since I was a teenager. I'm 60 years old now and looking forward to retirement in a few years, which I want to be able to enjoy. I've been getting serious about eating fresh, healthy, organic (most of the time) whole foods for about two years and have been able to get to a net loss of about 20 pounds from my high of 287 pounds. But I was unable to shake my sugar addiction until I dealt with some nutritional deficiencies, discovered and started to treat a hypothyroid condition, and started to work with a nutritional counselor. That has helped immensely. MFP has also helped me greatly. There's something about logging what you eat that keeps you honest and it makes you very conscious of the real caloric content of what you are eating.

I am finally eating what my body needs and giving it real nourishment and the scale is starting to move. My biggest challenge now is to incorporate more exercise into the program, but even so, I have lost about another 20 pounds since starting MFP. Welcome to the group!
