A friend recommended this site to me, and I hate tracking foods eaten, but I know I'll overeat if I don't, and this turned out to be pretty easy. I don't do it from my phone, as I'm at my desk all the time, but the food database is extensive which makes things easy. I need to lose 100 pounds.

    I lost 100 lbs before getting pregnant with my daughter and then I gained 70 lbs in my pregnancy and there after. I am just starting to get back on it. I have 70 lbs to lose and it's so daunting especially since I am still nursing. I feel like my body just doesn't want to give up this weight. I have tried several times this last year with no avail. I am hoping this will help keep me on track. Good for you for taking control of your help. I need encouragement too.

    Hi there! I have to lose about 125 to get to my goal weight, but I know that I will feel a million times better once I lose the next 50 pounds. I had originally lost almost 100 pounds and then foolishly gained most of it back. I'm ready to do it again, but this time it's staying off ;). Feel free to add me!

    Hi, I am in the same boat, originally lost a heap of weight then had a breakdown, was put on antidepressants and joy of joys it all came back, I quit the antidepressants and so far am finding it real hard losing anything but still determined to get back to the weight I was before my breakdown as none of my clothes fit & I refuse to buy new 'fat' clothes! Upped the diet & exercise regime in the hope of success and rejoined this site to keep me accountable! Anyone can add me. Good luck to all xx

    I'm in a similar place as you. I'm trying to lose 80 pounds (though 100 would be better for my BMI). I currently weigh 217.2 pounds and I'm just over 5 feet tall. Feel free to add me! Friends (in the same boat especially) make the journey a little easier. :smiley:

    Anyone feel free to add me. I was on MFP last year but didn't have any friends. Trying to get back in and make it stick this time. Could use all the motivation and support I can get. I've lost 12lbs and have about 100 more to go. I'm on a 40 day streak with logging and I log everything and my diary is open.

    All welcome to Add me just over 40 days back and this time feels different. I have lost 14 lbs so far. I am at 256 and under 200 is my short term goal. I remember feeling so great at 155 but I was in my twenties so not sure what my longterm goal weight is.

    Hi I'm almost 39 years old and I'm 270 lbs my health isn't very good ...I have 2 bad knees since I was very young and I just had knee surgery a week ago...I have a very bad back from 3 car accidents so I try to exercise but it causes me to flare up so I can only watch my calorie intake... Before starting this goal two weeks ago I hardly ate anything I would go all day without eating until supper time...now I am eating 3 times a day plus a snack with most of the time is fruit... It is great to have others who r trying to lose weight also ..if anyone wants to add feel free
