    Well I don't have 50 pounds to lose, but I have already been on that journey and lost that much weight. I'll be more than happy to support you on your journey.

    I started a while ago, but have been working on such a goal. Have gone down by 37 lbs since I started dieting and working out.

    Please add me! I'm learning as I go, and fitness is more important to me than how I look. I'm doing this for health, for life, and for good. I log my food every day (31 days today :) ), use a scale when I can (50-75% of the time), and work out 3X a week. Running is my current favorite exercise, but I know I want to build strength with weight training and do yoga or pilates for stretching. I've already lost 17 lbs, but I've got 85 to go.

    Its a journey, I started in April after letting myself slip back into old habits at Christmas. Since April I am down 60 with another 130lbs to go so I will be at this for a long time.

    Started today, was hoping, MFP would offer suggestions on what to eat. I am going to lose 60 pounds. I've tried everything and end up gaining it back once I'm off their food/shakes, WW works but I can't seem to go back. Tried Fast Metabolism Diet lots of work, like a full time job, and the food mainly tasted horrible after all that effort. Any ideas????

    I hit my highest weight of 210lbs a few months ago, that motivated me to come here and lose this extra 60lbs I've been carrying around. I log every day (not 100% accurate, sometimes I close my diary with 300 calories left, then say eff it and eat a sandwich in bed lol), and I do a variety of exercises depending on my mood, walking, hiking, stationary bike, elliptical, and lifting as heavy as I can pick up :) feel free to add me!

    And this is directed to uppup: No one needs to tell you what to eat! Eat the things you like, throw in some fresh veggies, and log it all in MFP. Stay in your calorie goal and you'll be fine :)

    Thank you onefortyone, right now the chocolate on your weight loss tracker is looking really good :) Better go search out some fresh veggies in the fridge.

    I just started. I weighed myself this am and was shocked to see I weighed 174.4 pounds. Actually I started yesterday but joined MFP today. I'm 60 and want to get down to 139 lbs. It would be nice to have some diet partners. :smile:
