I only have 15-20 lbs to lose but because I am not too overweight looking I am seriously slacking. I look fine in clothes but I am not happy when I undressed. I really need some support and motivation to reach my goal.

Good morning and welcome to MFP..You're definitely in the right place. I only had 17lbs to lose and found my friends on here were exactly what I needed to keep my butt going. Feel free to add me. I'm always on
Good luck to you!!! You can do it! 0 -
Stay on your own *kitten*!
Seriously, if you can't motivate yourself, no one else can do it for you.
WTF, a.s.s. is a censored word now?! smdh...0 -
Good Morning Anne, We do need motivation from others. Watching others lose weight, exercising and eating right will motivate you. Your MFP's can help you as long as you want this and you need to log on daily. I found that you need to get in the habit of logging in and tracking my food daily. When I noticed that I was not losing then I started weighing and measuring everything and the weight has started to move. I'll send you a friend request.0

Hi Anne, I have about the same amount to lose. I'm going to add you.

Feel free to add me. I have around 19lbs to lose. I understand what you mean needing support and motivation. That is what this site is for after all. Its night when you hit a plateau to have others to bounce ideas off of or to read their success stories from when they pushed through.0

I always need that!
I'll send you a message. 0 -
Same here... I'll stay on yours if you can stay on mine!0

I've been exactly where you are. I only had 20 lbs to lose when I started. It's taken a while but I'm down 19 and I'd like to push myself further and lose another 5 lbs. It's a slow process when you don't have a lot to lose but having supportive friends help. Feel free to add me. I'm on here daily 0

Hi Anne! How do you figure you have 15-20 lbs to lose? Are you simply unhappy with your appearance (as it sounds) or are you medically overweight? If you're not medically overweight and just looking to change your aesthetics, might I suggest not focusing on losing lbs, per se, but rather building muscle and toning? Muscle is more dense than fat, so by building muscle and burning fat, your weight may not change much but your body composition will change to be much leaner. Just my two cents : )
Feel free to send me a friend request. I'm happy to help in any way I can : )

I appreciate everyone's positive feedback. I am a stay at home mom, and a full time student online. I guess I just need to surround myself with like minded people because these kids don't want me going to the boring gym. lol.0

its easier to STAY motivated when you surround yourself with motivated people! That is the biggest reason I left the womens gym I was a member at for a larger gym. I pay more yeah, but there are always people there working out really head. Motivates me to be like them! 0 -

Welcome, add me. I stay on yours if you stay on me. I was out from Feb to the middle of Sept... I put on a "few" pounds. Looking to lose about 10-15lbs, but Dec 31st.
Your words are EXACTLY how I feel. when I look in the mirror... I look form the neck up... Not happy at all.

That is easier said than done! Hahaha. Before the littlest was born I had so much more freedom. Boohoo. I am done complaining today. Thank you everyone!0 -
I Totally understand! That is how I was my whole life. Then after a miscarriage I started gaining and kept gaining. (like pregnancy weight minus pregnancy) and I finally HAD IT! Its hard when others say "you look fine" but you know you're not.
