My 10 millionth attempt at losing weight.

Hi. I have been overweight ever since I was a young girl and have tried every diet known to man (probably 2 or 3 times!). I've never participated in the "community" aspect of any of them though, and I'm hoping that it will make the difference. I have a lot of weight to lose and am hoping with a little support, I will do it this time!

    I'm going to send you a friend request. You sound like my life twin. I just hit my 140 day streak today and have lost 44.4 pounds so far. I am 22 pounds from my goal weight. I like to help and encourage people, because if I have done this, anyone can.

    You're on the right site. No fad diet needed, just accurate logging and staying at a caloric deficit. Easy. :)

    You will and can do this. I am the last person to preach as I'm in the same boat but I will say this, ever since I joined mfp and other forums w a low carb way of life; I have actually stayed on track and kept motivated even on a bad day when "I fell off the wagon ". Lol So for me this works and it will for you too. Good luck. Sending request. And anyone else, feel free to add me as I'm your cheerleader.
