    Welcome!!! I'm on a 110 lb weight loss journey (maybe more, we'll see when I get there). I weigh in Wednesdays, but I should be down a little over 20 lbs. As much as I wish I could wake up skinny, I try to remember that it's a marathon and not a race, I didn't gain weight overnight and it's going to take time to lose it! Plus it's better for skin recovery to not lose it extremely quickly. Having said that, my husband has lost 35 lbs in the same friggin time and his skin looks great. HAHA

    Good luck to you !!! HUGS!! I have to lose 100 pounds too. This thing has been awesome. I write down every single thing I eat...even if it hurts! I have lost 8 pounds and counting. I never thought exercise could be fun but am learning that it sure does loosen up the joints! LOL I am from Florida. Remember.. we didn't get to this weight in a day so just be realistic about how fast it takes to lose it .

    mr howell..You can do it! Just take it one day at a time and one pound at a time. My doctor says not to look at the numbers but at how much healthier you are eating and how good it it for your body and all over well being. Please feel free to friend me and we can chat to give each other a boost if you would like.. HUGS Linda
