    Hi Kelly and others on this string. I too have 100 pounds to lose. I need accountability and that person to talk me down at times. My weight has served a great purpose for me up to this point but now its not needed. I love cycling and I'm ready to look like the athlete that I am...

    Hey Kelly I have about 100 lbs to lose. I have been trying off and on for the last 4 years. I feel this time if I start talking with others maybe I will keep going.

    I have requested all of you and I hope we can all talk on here as well as our profiles.. I'm also on facebook. Another thing idk if anyone wants to do this once we get to know eachother better. I know it helped last time I was struggling or wanted to run out late at night and binge eat etc I would text or call a person, talk/text it out...sadly it's an addiction and especially for emotional eaters it's like a drug :/ But I'm pretty much always available to do that except when I work but I'm usually out at 3 pm eastern time

    You can add me. I'm 34, almost 35, and I am 350 lbs. I was 392 last July, and I am down 42 lbs, but I have a lot to go. I'm bad about self-sabotaging too.

    Add me.. I am 33 this is my third go round with weight loss. I have always been fairly heavy around 22 I dropped to my lowest weight in many years which lasted quite sometime. Then 6 years ago I became pregnant and gained all 60 pounds I lost plus 20 more. I have struggled loosing weight since the pregnancy but May 2012 I was to be married so I started the dieting over again. Although not as successful I was able to drop six dress sizes and about 45 pounds. I have gained almost all of it back between the "comfortable life and the stress of work" It is now time for me to regain self confidence and kick this weight in the booty... I would love to help with your support and achieve many goals together.

    I need the same thing!!!!
    I need motivational people that I can relate to as well. I'm shamefully only 21 years old & have 25kgs (approx 50lbs) to lose. I was 64kg (approx. 120lbs) back when I was 18. Then I started partying & drinking as soon as I was "legal" which also help add a few kgs. Then I ended up in a relationship when I was 19. Í don't know why I'm being so honest to strangers but anyway... My boyfriend at the time became very aggressive & violent towards me so much so that I was too scared to leave because I was unsure as to what he might do.
    19. I started emotionally eating & therefore packed on more kgs. I finally after a year left him (which was a bit messy). I've been dealing with the aftermath of what he has done to me. Ive been trying for the past year to lose weight & I keep losing motivation. So for the hundredth time I'm giving it another go & pulling myself together. Getting *kitten* sorted!

    Sorry for the ramble... But that's my story.

    I, too, have over 100 pounds to lose and I'm one of those people who need good and strong support systems to succeed. It's time to get my *kitten* in gear and get my life together. I'm tired of missing out on it!

    Yeah! I need a support group. From 315lbs to 216lbs, back to 301lbs and I'm currently 271lbs.... I'd like to be part of this. Maybe I can help people stay motivated and keep me from making bad decisions. I can relate to so many stories on here. We can do this!
