Can I see a show of hands from people that need ot lose this much or more. I'm just curious.
Sometimes it's hard for me to relate to someone that needs to lose 3 pounds. I would just like to know who is in my boat.
Thanks :happy:

I am wanting to lose 80 pounds!0

90 lbs was my goal....I just hit my 10 lbs mark today!! Woo hoo!!!0

I have 80 pounds to lose! I just started so I have a long way to go. I do enjoy this site because I am journaling my daily intake more than I ever have. I also enjoy seeing what the exercise does for the calorie intake. I try to stay at my goal but today I went over but did not feel so bad because with the exercise I really was under my calorie count.
I have joined a local bicycle riding group as well. Even though I am riding alone right now they are an inspiration and motivator to get me out on my bike.
With a support system it will make it easier.

I was in for 80 lbs. Just hit my first 10 this week so I'm looking forward to the next 10 and the next and the next.....
I know what you mean about relating to people who only need to lose 3-5 lbs but you have to remember that to them that's like losing 75. We have to be supportive for all who want to lose no matter how big or small the number. It's all about health.
You, we can do this!!!!0 -

my origional goal was losing 50 lbs-that would bring me to 150.then i thought of who is was in the first place and it may take 2 yrs but 75 total would bring me back to pre-all-the -babies -weight. granted the "babies" are between the ages of 25 and 31! i used to be really skinny and cute.with a slight built.i want to see that again!!!!!:laugh:0

I'm in the 75+ pounds group too I've made it a point not to get on the scale for the past couple weeks but I can say that my new lifestyle is working because I feel SO much better! More energy to play with my 2 yr-old twin boys! :laugh:0

I need to lose about 100 pounds. But my goal is a bit more realistic I haven't seen that weight since high school. I am working on 33 - 50 pounds. If I can keep that off I will be thrilled.0

I don't have that much to lose anymore, but I did. I lost 80, gained half back and am determined to lose that before I gain it back. Don't look at the total. Look at it in small increments. You can do it!0

Thank you all so much! I appreciate all the replies and to see how far some of you have come and how far some of you have to go.
Yes I understand that 3-5 pounds is very hard for some people and I fully support everyone and their goals. I'm not trivialising that at all. I will be there to support them as well!
I just sometimes might have issues to discuss and finding people that might have experienced the same thing would be nice. Sometimes being overweight is like being a whole other species. I have been treated badly and discriminated against many. many times because of my weight. Even to the point of being denied job promotions etc.
So anyways, let's go out and have a great weight week!!! Woo Hoooo

It's amazing how you lose the sugar cravings that are so hard to get over at first. And then if you take a drink or a bite of something really sugary it's SO POWERFUL it almost makes you want to puke. Can you believe what a difference it is??? :noway:0 -
