    Just noticed this old thread. Also noticed the OP deacto'd. Maybe she was super successful - losing 50lbs in 6 months and doesn't need MFP anymore.

    Hell ya! I've come to the conclusion that being over weight like this is depriving too many women of a "Nordic God!"
    Friend me up, if you are seriously ready to commit and help each other through encouragement and truth!!!

    I've lost 10 pounds so far by changing food habits and rowing for 30 minutes, twice a day, six days a week. I don't care how long it takes, I WILL do this. 49 pounds to go. 49 pounds sounds like so much to me, so I focus on the next pound, not the total. I joined MFP to accelerate the progress I've made so far.
  • Id like to loose more than 50 but im very motivated I exercise 6 days a week, and twice a day
  • Count me in! and please add me to your friends list! I'm working hard at it every day and can always use more encouragement and happy to offer much encouragement to all pf you! we can do this! :wink:

    You may add me. I workout between 300-400 minutes per week and try to eat around 2000 calories. I have more than 50lbs to losebut overall I feel that the number on the scale is arbitrary. Just send me a message in the friend request reminding me where you found me. All my goals are clearly outlined on my profile.

    Hi I'm new again to MFP. I am looking to loss 55 pounds to reach a goal weight of 135. I think that would be best for me being 5'4'' I am motivated to get this done this time around, since I'v just had my 4th child a little over 7 weeks ago. I do at times forget to get on here and log my food and exercise, but I am on every couple days to update everything. Doing this alone is harder than I thought, and any extra support would be greatly appreciated!

    Have more than 50 to lose.
    6'3" with 121 lbs to go.

    ANYONE CAN ADD ME IF YOU'D LIKE!
    ALL REQUESTS ACCEPTED!
  • Today I went to the MD and realized I am at my highest weight ever. I need to lose 50 pounds, absolutely. Maybe even more, but 50 would be amazing. Please add me too.

    I started out needing to lose 56 lb. I have lost 26 so far! The key is to eat right and give your body the nutrition it needs! Exercise is only a small part of it! I lost the first 20 lbs. using wii active 2 on the 9 week challenge. After that wasn't enough I started working out through a place called skinny's nutrition that gives free workouts and a coach. We don't use machines though (just a set of dumbbells and a yoga mat). I'm not sure if they offer that in your area because I am from mississippi but it is called 24 Fit Camp. Good luck with your weight loss journey!

    Do you have 50lbs. to lose? Are you highly motivated to lose it? Then I would like to be your friend. I am on here everyday and am exercising almost everyday. I am very commited to losing this time:) Thanks!! Together we WILL do this!!!

    I have not read everyone's post just the first page so far and......

    So I am not at the 50 mark. I need to loose 30lb and need just as much support becuase I purchased one of my favorite popcorns yesterday from COSTCO sweet and salty...Lets say I had too many handfuls and did not go to the gym. Today is a new day so starting over and getting ready to go have my oatmeal and plan to mow the lawn later today.

    Let me know if you can add me andlet me know how you begin... I was thinking about 30 Day Shred with Jillian Michaels or Ian Smith Book Called Shred... I am not sure how I should start except I know eating that popcorn is not going to do it!

    Lay off the popcorn. No point eating something that will make you feel guilty. We all have our moments of weakness that leads to temptation. But stay strong.

    I'm doing 30 day challenges for back, arms, love handles and a LBD challenge. I do these in the evening. In the morning, i'm doing HIIT workouts and added some leg work because i so wanna rock my SKINNY JEANS!!!!

    There is a group called Let's Lose 50+, and so far people there seem pretty open and friendly.

    I'm looking to lose at least 50, probably closer to 65 depending on how I look and feel.
    I've been on here 4 weeks, lost 11 pounds and that target seems a very long way off.

    I'm looking to add some friends who are heading in the same direction - downwards - at whatever pace we are all managing it, but downwards for sure.
