100+ pounds to lose. would love friends

I also need to lose at least 100lbs I could use friends as well

Hi there feel free to add me for some support

Hey I have 100+ lbs to lose and would love to have some friends for support and to help me stay on track. Friend me if you'd like

Anyone feel free to add me! I'm staring over once again. I've kept off 40lbs of my last weight loss but I still need to lose 100.

First off welcome to anyone new here! I hope you all choose this thread and come back daily so we can build a support system that really motivates us through this challenge. 4 years ago I was part of a group that helped me navigate through 80lbs and I’m hoping to find that again. Please friend me and come back and share your successes and challenges (or just a to chat). There is power in numbers!!

@Bat100 – keep that food journal going. The MFP diary is such a great tool. Have you tried out the barcode scanner?

@skinny652 – I hope you are going to keep posting to this thread. We can all support each other.

@mommazach – I’ve never heard of not drinking anything 15 minutes before eating? I usually drink a large glass of water to help me eat less since it makes me feel full. Hmmm maybe I will try this. Thanks

@winniway – congrats on the 10lbs down!! Keep it going girl!!!


@crzycowgrl23 – I hope you like the app. You can go to myfitnesspal.com also. It’s a lot easier accessing many of the great features here from your PC but the smartphone app is handy when you’re out and about.

@preachergirl09 – I’ll be looking for your post. We are like MFP twins. Same story. I’ve been mad at myself for 2 years about gaining the weight back. It’s time we took charge again!!!


So far my day is going fine. My meals are planned for the day so I’m feeling good about things. If possible I will get out for a good walk at noon and enjoy some fresh air and sunshine, which we have not had here in Maine for way too long!! I’m drinking tons of water and will not be falling off this wagon today. TODAY is all I can worry about. Take it one day at a time ladies. We got this.

Keep it skinny

Everyone feel free to add me :-) :-)

So today's plan is falling into place. I finally got up early and hit the treadmill. Did some calisthenics and switched things up for breakfast with an egg white omelette and toast. Packed a lunch that was NOT another salad and hope to get out at noon for another 30 minute walk. Taking it one day at a time is the only way I can do this. When my thoughts turn to the future they include a thinner healthier me.

@preachergirl09‌ - What are your goals going into the weekend? That's always a tough one for me. No routine for 48 hours so I need to start thinking about that now.

My weekend:
Pampered Chef Freezer show on Friday night. This should be fun and help fill the freezer with meals my family can enjoy and hopefully will be somewhat healthy. I'd like to dedicate Saturday morning to a nice long workout. My kids are old enough to fend for themselves for a few hours! Saturday night there is a chili & chowder tasting benefit. If DH really wants to go I can pull this off by spending most of my time socializing. Sunday will be easy since I'm driving my oldest to visit a college 5 hours away! We'll pack some healthy snacks and be ready for a nice walk around campus when we arrive.

Time to get my workday started
Keep it skinny

I am here! Add me!

Me too - The story of losing and gaining. I can ususally maintain for 5 years or so then something happens and I blow up again. This time Ugh, there is always a promise of this time - I want to make lifestyle changes that will stick! I joined a group last year and after a few weeks found myself a group of one! I like the idea of staying in touch, sharing and supporting each other in our struggles. I am the other side of of 55 and have about 80 lbs to lose... again...Ugh! Count me in too!

I'm getting very discouraged, it's been 22 days and I've only lost 8 pounds. I haven't cheated once and I've increased my exercise routine. It's just not coming off.
