    I have a goal of 80, but I need to lose closer to 130. Wow. Please add me, I've tried MFP before but never with others. Maybe that is what I'm missing.

    I started at 415 a year ago. By using this app to record everything I am eating and then using that knowledge to make better choices I am now just below 350. My end goal is 200. My 12/31/15 goal is 300. My goal for 4/15/15 is 335. I'm just taking it a pound a week. 200 lbs is too big for me to wrap my head around. Plus I knew I needed wins every so often - so I've set 15 pound goals every 3 to 4 months.

    I have over 100 to lose and I've gotten off to a bumpy start. For those who have already lost a good chunk - what has helped you the most?

    recording everything I eat - without worrying about a bit of ketchup and stuff like that. I set the goal calories in the app for 1.5 lb loss per month and have been paying attention to keeping close to that total. When I go over I'm not beating myself up - just making a better decision the next day. As I have lost weight the calorie goal is going down. So I have been slowly changing my habits and diet - not trying to make a radical change that I cannot sustain.

    I've been moving around more too - but mainly I've been eating less. Now I'm eating around 500-600 calories per day less than I was a year ago.

    I am also at my heaviest ever, despite being on WW most of last year! I've just cancelled my membership, ordered a Jawbone Up24, and am aiming for increased health and fitness this year. Having said that, I wouldn't mind losing at least 100 pounds from the 249 I currently weigh! I'll pop over to the fb page too, when I'm not on hubby's computer.

    I started a couple weeks ago at 252 and have lost ten pounds, but still have a ways to go with my goal being 130. Trying to eat better and keep processed foods to a minimum, but I'm horrible at tracking. I have a tendency to track really well throughout the day, and then not track my evening meal and snacks (especially if I know I've overate). Also working on getting in some exercise. Saving up for a yoga membership and doing some kettlebell workouts at home. When the weather's warmer, it'll be walking the dog everyday.

    I'm always looking for new friends. If you want extra support, add me!

    This thread is wonderful, I've already added so many friends!

    But please add me. I'm currently 257 and trying to get down to as close to 150 as possible. I haven't weighed 150 pounds since elementary school, I kid you not. But this is my year. I have been lazy and wasteful for 25 years of my life...I turn 26 this summer and there are milestones I would love to achieve, like conceiving my first child. Who wants to be pregnant and 100 lbs overweight? Not this girl. :) That alone is giving me the motivation I need to get it done this time.

    Who's with me?! Add me ;)
