Lots to lose (>100 lbs)

I've been using MFP for about 2 weeks and been lurking here for a couple of days.

I have lost 5lb, but I have over 100lb to lose, and am looking for friends who can give me a 'virtual kick' which, going by the many failed weight-loss attempts, I am sure I will need!

    I've already lost some of my weight, but I have a total of 100lbs I want to lose. It can and is a daunting task to lose that much weight. But if you take it day by day, eat right, and do some kind of exercise (even if it's just taking a 20 minute walk) it WILL come off!!

    You're in the right place!!! MFP is wonderful and supportive. Five pounds...WOW, you are doing great!! The rest will come off before you know it

    A little piece of advice, make small attainable goals, don't look at the 100 pounds, look at 20 or 25, then 50...ect...ect.. Baby steps. Remember if you never quite trying, you will never fail..the only choice you have will be to succeed. So never stop trying…you have a bad day….that’s ok, we all do, get back on the train, it is going slow enough for you to jump on, have no fear. You so have this!

    I need you to kick my butt as well. I work out 6 days a week but the eating is my problem. I can't seem to get over this plateau. Ugggh

    Congrats on such a great start on your weightloss journey! 5 pounds down is awesome!:bigsmile:
    First of all, speaking from my own experience, it is best to not look at the past and dwell on past attempts at losing weight. This is a new beginning and I am sure you will do a great job at achieving your goal(s). Wishing you the best and sending a friend invite to you as well.

    :happy: I have lots to lose also (my own fault) but I am now on the right track. Looking for motivational friends who are in the same boat as me. Have found this site to be extremely helpful and reading nutritional labels to be very informative. I didn't realize how bad I was eating but definitely know now how I got this way!!
