Just found out I have high blood pressure and that I am pre-diabetic. My goal is to lose the weight in one year. I have too much to live for.

    Hi there.....sounds like you are also talking about me. I'm 45 yrs old and also have the same issues. I have had problems with my weight since my early 20's. I'd lose the weight on to put it back on. I figure this now it has to become a lifestyle change for me. I want to lose it and keep it off:) I have about 30 lbs to lose. Add me if you like. Good luck on your weight loss journey:)

    I agree! A healthy weight loss is about 2 lbs a week. You can do it!

    I've been here (MFP) for 11 months and am down 111 pounds. It can be done! Way to set the goal :) The key to starting is taking the first step - just keep walking.

    it is very possible to loose 100 lb in a year i did last year and could have done more! BUT i would put it as a smaller goal just incase you dont manage it all!
    good luck

    I am trying to lose 100lbs in a year as well! You can do it! If you don't have a Android Smartphone I suggest upgrading now & using the MFP app, its has made tracking so easy for me! I am only two weeks in I'll add you!

    I did it in 10 months - it can be done, and without silly starving yourself or dangerous faddy diets. Good luck with it!

    But it IS a lot of hard work, just take it one week or even one day at a time. :)

    I'd LOVE to lose 100lbs in a year! My aim is around 80lbs but any more is a bonus!

    Friend request me if you'd like some support along the way - I've been at this for 45 days and have lost 22lbs so far x
