      I'm one of the laziest people I know, and I lost 50lbs before. Then I got comfortable and started drinking and eating fast food too much LOL. You guys can definitely do it.

      I'm like the others who replied. Now we need to form a group and support each other. Now how do we do this?

      Hi Ladies!

      I have lost 50 lbs so far and completely changed my families eating habits! Would love to work with you as I continue on my journey with 30 lbs to go!
      I am starting a Clean Eating group on Facebook and would love to bring you all in.
      Also, I started a blog to track my journey and what I do with my family! It is at www.familypaleoblog.com and on FB it is www.fb.com/familypaleoblog

      I hope to hear from you all!

      Well it's Friday and another weekend is upon us. Anyone have some great ideas for sticking with this? I will have to plane my meals ahead of time & try to stay away from the kitchen.

      Add me too! I'm down 10 and have around 40 left to go. I'm finding that what works best for me is meal planning and packing breakfast and lunch on workdays. I also keep reminding myself that this is supposed to be a lifestyle change and try to make small and sustainable changes along the way :)

      let's do it!

      Add me too. I also have 50 to lose. I'm using "Baby Steps" to change my lifestyle because once I lose these kilos, I don't want to find them again! I have lots to learn on the journey and think it will be way easier in a group.

      I am In the same boat. 60 years old, 50# overweight and disappointed in myself. I could use some support and encouragement

      bpatyet ... don't give up. We can do this! I'm in a slump today too, but I just need to find something fun to do to exercise & change things up a bit. Every pound is one gone but I wish they would add up faster.
