I'm going to try, once again, to be successful and lose this weight once and for all. I have 158 lbs. to lose and I need help and motivation from people who understand the struggle. Good luck to everyone who is also on this difficult journey.

    Hi Teresa - I would also love to join you. You know the old saying you can't knock someone for trying. I too want to lose 100+ and have been overweight most of my life so fully understand.

    Feel free to add me. I still have about 70 lb to go, but I've lost 120 lb already. My diary is open for anyone to sniff around. I've had a not-so-good summer and am looking to get back to work.

    Can a guy join in the club? I did this a few years ago, lost a little weight (I've got over 100 to lose) but my other goal at the time was eating better to run a half marathon. I managed to pull that off. Okay, I walked more than ran, but I made it to the finish line.

    Funny thing is, I accomplished that goal and felt good about myself but then totally lost site of my marathon goal, which was to lose the weight I needed to lose.

    Now, I'm back to lose the weight I need... and to get back in some sort of shape....

    HEY EVERYONE! ❤️
    I have re-started my journey many times, and I can tell you that what really matters is that if you fall down seven times, you get up eight times!
    I started my journey at **314 pounds*** about eight years ago and have lost 115 pounds to-date (and that has come on a yo-yo basis). I am 31 years old, a mother of two, and wife of a military man (USN).
    I discovered FitnessPal about 52 pounds ago at a time when I was stuck and frustrated... I felt hopeless... This has been the most AMAZING tool, and I LOVE this community!!!

    KEEP AT IT!!!

    Feel free to add me, I post progress, ideas, and encouragement when I can.

    I believe in you!!!!!!!! ❤️

    Hi everyone. After finally being disgusted with all the pop-up ads I decided to upgrade to the Premium @ $50 a yr.
    Works a lot faster so far. I am restarting my plan. Need to lose 25 lbs and lower sodium and sugar. We had a health fair at work and my results were not good. My LDL (bad cholesterol) was 122 which was OK but my HDL (good chol ) was 29 not so good ( above 40 is good) body fat was 34.5. So I appreciate any encouragement as I will help encourage too ! GOOD LUCK EVERYONE

    Count me in! I don't want to be alone in trying to lose 80 pounds. My family is tired of hearing me say that I'm starting a diet and I'm ashamed of myself for not giving me a fair chance. I used to be so good with self-discipline, but now I feel lost and so far gone I don't know where to begin :(

    I would love to join too please. I am restarting for the 100th time I think !!!!! But never thought of sharing it with the people who may go through the same challenges...This time I am and I want to make the change permanent. I am done blaming POVS for all the things. If there is any way I can beat it, it is through weight loss. As they say..."I am not losing weight. I am getting rid of it. I have no plan of finding it again". Let's do it everyone.....20 lbs to lose. Started today with a slow jog today....45 mins...aches and pains all over...still worth it......!!!!!!
