Hey Yall. Lost focus for a while and just now coming back. Would love to have some friends for motivation and support and to do the same back. Especially those with large goals like mine.

    Hey! I'm in the similar boat. I was doing really good but then fell off the wagon and gained 30+ lbs than before, then lost it all and then some. And it gave me allot of motivation to keep it going! I hope to hear from ya!

    Hi guys!! So glad to meet you both!! JHARP AND ASHLEEEEANE :)
    Congratulations on you're commitment. B) I am at the tail end of the same goal.. 20 more to go. Sometimes 25 depending on the day. I've lost a total of 120 ish. this last stretch is tough for me.
    It has definitely been a worthwhile journey. Lots and lots of self discovery. Hope to hear from you guys. I've sent you both requests if you're interested. Today is the first day I have reached out to the MyFitnessPal community page.

    Hey! I have about 100 lbs to lose I am 240 and want to go to 140!
    I went on atkins last year and dropped 30 lbs, then I got pneumonia and fell off the diet..I always told myself to go back on atkins diet but 6 or 8 months later I gained it all back..and some :'(
    Now atkins won't work for me because I am vegetarian :p
    I notice my weight goes on because of the amount I eat..for me it's all about portion control. I find this app keeps me in check! I am new to this community and have lost almost 5lbs! Yay!!

    I was here and lost 52 pounds! Then gained every pound back. Then I was here and lost 30 pounds. Now I'm here to lose the 10 I've gained back again plus the others! I'm weighing in at 230 and would love to be around 180 (for starters)!

    Yep, was down to a size 6 from a size 10 just a few years ago, now up to a size 14 in just a couple years. Just when I met my goals too. But now have support from my husband and am more motivated than the last time to just look good for the reunion. I am now having health issues. At 50, I am moderately obese, hypertensive and the doctor is going to start watching my blood sugars!!! No can do!!! I got 10 years till retirement and I am a nurse!!! Need to keep rolling! But not in fat!
