10 lbs, and a healthy lifestyle

Options
Everyone talks about losing 100-150 lbs and I feel weird with my little ten. Still, if you're offering support I'll take it. Cheers to weight loss!

    Hello and I completely do understand what you mean, I am trying to lose 25 or so pounds which might still not be a whole lot. I feel it's more than just an x number of lbs to lose, it's the determination and the lifestyle change to get healthier and to maintain the weight. I will send you a friend request and offer support and motivation!

    10 is important too, better to lose it at 10 then let the weight gain continue until it because much bigger. kudos to you for taking charge and catching it early

    Welcome to MFP! Not everyone here needs to lose a lot of weight. There are many people who want to lose 10 pounds or less. You are not alone

    There are a lot of people here who actually want to gain weight and build muscle as well!

    Welcome I just got on this website- did weightwat hers for years but counting points doesn't work anymore I have gained a pound a week these past six weeks and now need to lose 15- 20 pds instead of 7-10. More importantly none of my favorite clothes fit especially dresses and many of my pants
    - That was the real rude awakening when I couldn't wear some of my favorite holiday outfits
    - Realize that being over fifty my metabolism isn't what it used to be and all those dinners out are catching up thinking that i can order wine and dessert if I don't eat the whole entree
    - That's not working for me anymore
    - Help!
